Best Whoop Camera // Mobula 7 Freestyle HD // HDZero Lux

[@doncunningham3124]

I've been a subscriber for as long as I can remember. I've purchased many nano and micro models because of your reviews. Of course, I modified them into completely different models but that's just me. That said, in my humble opinion, you're STILL the best nano/micro drone Reviewer on KZbin! Hands down!

HDZero at 200 MW is pretty darn good for a whoop.

[@shogunemperor]

Awesome review as always Nick. Nice one

[@mtyler2469]

Hey Nick the motor wire tape works great with very little added weight. You just put it long wise down the battery, if you need 1 layer just cut the tape so it ends on the thin part of the battery and it'll help keep those batteries in!

Hey Nick have you ever considered going to one of the major whoop races in the US? It would be really cool to see an "event review" video

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I have wanted to, but not gone as far as making arrangements. I have a hard time pulling myself away from family and home. Going to a race is on my "bucket" list.

Good review again Nick

[@Vertolot]

Finally you review it!

[@NickBurnsFPV]

It takes me a while. I don't review based on an afternoon or day of flights. Generally, it take two weeks or more.

[@johncarold]

Hi Nick, Great video and review of the mobula 7 HD, I wish I had your reaction skills to fly inside, but it sure flys nice outside as well. Thanks for the video and info on this quad. 😅

[@notice_fpv]

I made a 3d printed adapter that allows me to mount the lux in the mob 6 canopy. All's right with the world!

[@PropsOff]

Cracks me up! Your really fast, yet I can see your ducts.. What angle do you run? Looks like a rippa, great review as always Nick...👍🏻🍻👊🏻

[@NickBurnsFPV]

I suspect the default camera angle on this one is around 12 degrees, not adjustable and thus it was the angle I used as well

[@PropsOff]

@NickBurnsFPV Definitely fast at 12°..lol..

[@flasholiver69]

Another Great Video Mr.Nick. Thank You!!!

[@ralfh9122]

Hello Nick, take the betafpv Micro Canopy Lite, the Lux Cam fits in perfectly, is protected and you can adjust the angle. The 75 Air Frame from Betafpv is also great, Betafpv Lava fits perfectly with it. And take the Gamfan 40mm 2 blade props, it flies better and above all longer 🙂

[@airdevil21]

12:57 in yes Nick I have the same problem breaking them there in the front. Thanks Nick great review! I already ordered one via banggood last week. Can't wait to get it here is flying great finally a mob7 hdzero that can compete with analog like flying performance 👍 awesome!!! Thanks Hdzero and Happymodel for that aio 🙏👍🫶😁

[@johncalhoun1815]

Nick, with those loose batteries run a small rubber band around one end then give it a twist and go around the other end, that might provide you a little cushion as far as breaking the battery holder to boot. 🤣

[@GODisHiring]

Just got the air65 and waiting for it to come in? Anyone have any input on it?

[@KOrnhOliO1]

I just got mine in! Haven't flown it yet, but oh so co0ol, small, and lightweight! Good choice! 😃

[@dronevan]

me too. I used a drop of instant glue to hold the focus, since than all good

[@wlad792]

@@dronevan unfortunately I can't setup it 100% as from the factory

[@DukeEvolution]

Yea how do you re-focus the camera? Just turning it a little - mine is out of focus as well from what it was when it was new.

[@lemonsquareFPV]

​@@DukeEvolution Print, order, or get a focus chart from a camera store. Learn to use it. This is an integral part of FPV. I set focus at 2.5-3 meters, but I have a few friends that use 1.5-2 meters for their whoops. It's personal preference. It will always give you a better image as most cameras are not focused, or weirdly focused at the factory.

[@mikejackson2088]

@@DukeEvolution I took the camera out of the canopy and then unscrewed the jam nut (it has the notches on it, take it easy on the threads and don't man handle it). Once the jam nut is loosened you can screw the lens itself in and out while looking through your goggles until it is clear as it can be. Focus does change with distance so use your judgment for what looks best to you. Once you have it, tighten the jam nut back down and install the camera back in the canopy. It might take a little tweaking because the lens is easy to move when tightening the jam nut.

[@cristianosaturni]

Great review as usual! To solve the problem of the usb sticking out from the frame too close to the battery, would it help rotating the fc on the yaw axis by 90 degs on the same frame?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Yea we can do that, we will have betaflight adjustments to do as well

[@cristianosaturni]

@NickBurnsFPV this change of parameter in betaflight is easy, with the configurator and usb drivers working. Alternatively, I would use longer screws (hard to find) and some spacers to lift the fc.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

@@cristianosaturni true when we are familiar with those changes. For others this could be unknown.

I would never use a 75mm on 1s, so for 75mm whoop, I would compare the lite bundle with eco board + lux camera: I feel like we loose both on weight and image quality.

[@sketchpv3080]

That, indeed, is where all my whoop frames broke until I switched to the Cockroach V3.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

For me its either the front or the back but always that upper support.

[@MattysDroneWorld]

Nice! Man, i try flying in the house like that I'd end up divorced lol!

[@lemonsquareFPV]

Just figure out the issue and see if you have some flexibility. If it's noise, you can do it away from the people that get bothered. I got some of those. Also... My security team won't let me fly analog, except for 3 areas that basically have glass walls to begin with. But I can fly other video systems basically everywhere else.

@ I’ve only had one break on a 75 whoop that was pretty heavy. Had a whoop lite kit on it. 65 never seen that. Makes sense tho on the wider battery since the bar in between is longer and more fragile.

Heavier batteries points out that you are still categorized as a NEWBIE TO FPV! Lolol 😉 It's not about flying an ultra light whoop with heavy batteries! It's about KEEPING an ultra light whoop, ultra light with lightweight batteries! It defeats the purpose and defeats the performance of these great ultra light whoops to use heavy batteries! Buy more batteries! Change often! It's all about power to weight ratio! Keep it light, silly Newbie! Lolol Happy holidays Bro! $ave big money... Buy the BetaFPV AIR65 or AIR75 for retail $95 and don't get ripped off by buying the HDZero goggles for over $700 with the 4 antennas and a battery you'll still need for them after you spend $600 on those worst value in the FPV goggles! 💯👎 Air65 has a super clear camera and a 400mw VTX so Nick flies his entire house crystal clear! Go search for that video he did a while back and watch how clear it is! Only not quite as sharp as the HDZero version but still amazing for an analog whoop!... And I just $aved you hundred of bucks! Analog for the win! 🎊🥳🎁🧑‍🎄😁🤘

[@stumbras2000]

No chance you will have 65mm at 20g with DJI O4, 75mm 1S bellow 40g is also very unlikely. So basically, no indoor whoop from DJI unless you live in warehouse or have crazy skills... I also own Goggles 3 but bought Hdzero for tinywhoops and possible racing.
