i gave my Tiny6s or x or whatever it was to my little brother to get him started out. gave him a tx8 i think it was, and some 800d box goggles. tons of props, and a whole bag of motors! so i don't have a brushed one still, but you bet i did back then! my first drone was a Hubsan x4, then an f450 Flamewheel, and can't remember the model name Armattan something or other 250 size bird with a kk2.1 board on it. no fpv back then!

E010 was my first whoop. I fleeted them out and still use them to teach people how to fly FPV.

[@HendrixFreakazoid]

Yes sir I'm old school because I rip my Boldclash B03 Bwhoops in the house and my Silverware NFE whoops with 25500KV unicorn motors outside almost daily I like the no fuss handling better than brushless sure the motors wear out quicker but I got piles of them they are cheap and they got better over the years Newbee is still putting out really good brushed motors

[@MrLootshoot]

Hi Nick I'm still runing around half a dozen brushed whoops, 3 of them E010 conversions. Eachine Bat 120, QX90C Pro the plastic framed one and a QX95. Defo got one still on the original motors the others running those black edition ones from 4 yrs back. EX120 2s brushed Hex still flying also🙂 goota love a bit of nostalgia.

[@Cappurnikus]

I watched your former video in approximately 2017 and decided to purchase this thing. I fell in love with tiny whoops immediately. After a few weeks I added the aio camera/vtx and fell in love with FPV. My channel history effectively proves that as I've been flying almost everyday since then. Thanks Nick!

[@tamoghnadey]

That's great!!

[@maplechill75]

Absolute classic. I mounted a cheap 25mw cam/vtx years ago myself and flew that thing everywhere. So so much fun.

You can also build goggles for $30 if you have an extra cell phone lying around by using Google cardboard and a ROTG01 receiver!

My first drone was an E013. It was 60 Bucks or so and came with Box Googles. It was the cheapest way to try FPV. And boy did it get me hooked :) Thanks for the blast from the past

[@jasonburke2596]

Great video Nick. The E010 was a great little quad back in the day, easily converted into an FPV whoop, which for someone like me it was great because I'm hopeless with Betaflight, so this RTF kit was great. The E017 looks like we have gone up tp the next level and thankfully so have my soldering skills! I shall be purchasing at least one E017 in readiness for a bit of indoor FPV in the Christmas holidays.

[@dinholimno]

I still have (and fly) my first whoop, it's a brushed kingkong tiny6. Great nostalgic video Nick.

[@Drieeedger]

My first drone experience was the Parrot AR Drone v1 in 2011, but life got busy and I didnt stay with it. Several years later, my first fpv experience in the goggles was actually the e011 with a little eachine tx03. Small investment, but massively influential on me and kick started my fpv journey to where I am today!

[@Okahui]

Same mine was a parrot drone too. Batteries were a nightmare

[@alkurganoff9172]

I also had e010. I think it uses bayang protocol, so i even bought external rf multiprotocol module to fly it not on this toy controller.

This is great to see end of 2022 😍 that is how I got started in the hobby. I remember your review from back then 👍 I also have the santa one. But removed the speaker, to use it with a camera instead. It works very well. I still fly brushed whoops. There is just something nostalgic and simple about them.

I’ve still got at least 6 brushed whoops. Bayang, frsky and DSMX. I still fly them on occasion. If the OSD worked on my NBD brushed whoop I’d be flying it in racegow.

I watched your original video when it came out. It was the first I had ever heard of FPV. I remember buying everything from banggood and starting crashing lol. I still have one of many of those e010 flight controller for memories but haven't flown brushed in years. This kinda is making me want to go pickup this little guy to relive those memories

[@abertheham]

I FOUND IT! This video tho: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX_MfZWFraiHm5I Man, that was of my biggest influences when I started flying nearly 7 years ago. I think it’s hard to overstate how impressive Dr. Ben’s flight skills were. His LOS stuff is still good to watch, but back then, with the state of quad tech when he posted it 8 YEARS AGO, he was basically unmatched imo. Thanks for the throwback, Nick!

[@NickBurnsFPV]

He did have a very unique voice and entertaining style

[@marcosrossetti1582]

The best thing was that some of these are compatible with the Jumper 4in1 module via the Bayang protocol, not the simplest thing to flash, but it flyes multiple times better than the standard, and you end up using a proper RC controller

[@NickBurnsFPV]

yes, they old walkera radios with deviation and a 4in1. I had both the small and big white one. :)

[@badfeng]

E010 was the bomb, my third drone. The next cheap whoop I dug was the "Santa drone" E011C aka JJRC H67 with beefier motors. Paired with the original Jumper controller and could fly it FPV quite a ways. Honorary mention to the Eachine/JJRC H8 Mini. Good times!

[@quadflopper1012]

it looks like the Eachine E017 is a version of the Holy Stone HS210 but with a few differences, the HS210 has a better shaped remote and comes with 220 Mah batteries which begs the question, why does the E017 come with only 150 Mah batteries. I am wondering if the E017 uses the same board as the Holy Stone HS210 but in the Eachine E017/JJRC H36 chassis, the 2 chassis are basically the same except the battery slot is just a tiny bit deeper to fit the thicker battery, i'm running a 260 Mah in my HS210. I tried finding out if the 017 does use the same props as the 010, H36 and HS210 but i couldn't find any props for sale, if they do use the same props i found that you can increase the flight time by probably a minute or more if you cut 2 of the blade off of each prop making it a 2 blade prop, I lost a little bit of punch out but it made a big difference in my flight time...FYI

[@4li60]

Never had a brushed whoop, but did own a few brushed tiny toy drones from WLtoys. I still have one with a very basic fpv camera that you can swap out for a water canon, bubble blower or air winch.

[@Fozzedout]

Well, I did this. Used the TX01 transmitter. Biggest issue I find with this is that you are constantly fighting the altitude hold, it's either over or under compensating for the extra weight of the camera. The second issue is the lack of canopy - crash, reaffix camera, crash, reaffix camera. Solution? Don't crash! 😂 With a vtx, I get about 2 mins flight time. Need more batteries and a better charger. All in all, a fun toy.

[@NickBurnsFPV]

Maybe some gorilla tape will keep it on in a crash?

Wish you had gone into the motor sizes that can make all the difference for carrying the camera. Santa drones can't be found anymore and I think they were the last with the larger motor.

So how do toy drones like this (sort of) maintain altitude, meanwhile "real" drones like the Mobula7 with Betaflight do not have that capability? Are the toys using gyro and accelerometer data to keep track of where they are and have moved? Similar question for the pseudo-return to home feature? Why can't Betaflight do this too?

[@NickBurnsFPV]

the "toys" generally only have what is often called level mode or angle mode. This being the quad is always try to hold level according to its last calibration. The mobula7 has the same sort of angle mode, but most who aren't new to fpv fly in rate or acro mode which is the opposite where we have to control the quad on all axis all the time.

[@gsegallis]

@@NickBurnsFPV Thanks for the help! Ya, I have used angle and acro mode on the Mobula7, and I kind of prefer angle mode so it levels out if I release the sticks. But I still have to control the throttle to maintain altitude which is ok when I can see it. But when video drops out, I would like to hit a button, where I can release all sticks and have the drone level an maintain its altitude (approximately) until I can regain video (by walking around, since this usually happens outside when the drone is a few houses away). And having a button that would return-to-CLOSE-to-the-direction-of-home would be invaluable when I fly too far away and can't see which way I'm even pointed, which might help get my drone back in video range.
