Just in case it wasn't clear in the video, you will NOT be able to chase drift cars and other high-speed objects with this guy! I took it out to film some windsurfing one day and there was no way it was gonna keep up. Although it's pretty fast, it's not THAT fast. ..I realized I cut my little blurb about that out of the vid. Anyways, hope you guys like it!

[@lassegregersen5133]

Hey, I'm completely new to fpv. When you fly do you fly agro, horizontal, or stablized? And when do you change?

[@ChrisParayno]

I really enjoy your style, logic, and perspectives for your videos. Keep up the amazing work and not being like the rest!

[@MattRix]

@@lassegregersen5133 most people who fly fpv fly acro almost all the time

[@sheapyfpv8224]

Acro is what every fpv pilot flys some start with angle(stabilised) or horizontal which is same as angle where the drone self levels with added advantage u can do basic flips and rolls but get in the habit of flying acro will take a little longer to get used to but u will benefit in the long run.

[@DasBitterman]

What kind of flight times are you pulling on this with the 4s 850mah? Have you tried it with anything larger? I was thinking about throwing an 18650 li-ion on it but wondered if that would block the airflow to the rear props too much, any thoughts?

[@PortalFPV]

Just stumbled upon your channel for the first time...I have to say, you really do have a good calm filming style with proper lighting, good focus, balanced clean audio and undistracting background music. You sir are killing it 🤘

[@dawidlis5840]

I really like how you grew up your channel just in time when fpv came so popular rn and most of the professional pilots don't really bother to clarify everything so easily. I'm in the hobby for a little while now, created my own business with it, had already like 7 drones and I still like to watch your videos, because they simply answer popular questions which are not asked anywhere else. Keep on that, I think you have a perfect audience to create your branch of youtube fpv, different than JB as technician and JohhnyFPV as pilot as well. Cheers mate!

[@meniakon859]

Hey,im thinking getting into drones..what kind of business you started? im located in Greece and i really like that idea.

[@cnblaser5293]

i have no intention of buying a ciniwhoop as i fly freestyle. but this was so entertaining. thanks for another great vid

[@KOrnhOliO1]

Yup, you're right! Unless you have a very successful KZbin channel, or are a commercially licensed pilot and actually making a living off creating HD video for clients, I see no purpose to filling up hard drives with HD video clips. In my experience in the hobby for the last 6 years, I would watch it once, and the clip will sit there collecting virtual dust on my hard drive. Having dozens, if not hundreds of these HD clips just sitting there is a waste of time, effort, money, and space! Sure, the prominent reviewers make recording HD freestyle video recordings seem way co0ol. But, in reality, when you think really hard about it, most of us don't have a successful KZbin channel and aren't making a living off of flying FPV and making videos for clients. So, for me, and I'm thinking a lot of you guys, making HD videos is a total freakin' waste of time! 😎🤘 Plus, a ton of money! Me, I'll just convert all of that time recording, editing, posting, etc. into more flying and getting that ADRENALINE RUSH FPV was designed to give us!!! 👍 Flying slow to get smooth cinematic video is BORING AS HELL ! 😂🤪

[@jManraM]

I have the Nazgul 5 HD 4s version and I haven't even flown that thing. This hobby is like a maze lol so confusing

[@KOrnhOliO1]

@@jManraM All I can suggest is you find one problem or issue you don't understand, and research youtube videos until you find a fix for it. Then, click save to the right of the thumbs up LIKE button, and save it for later so when you encounter that issue again, you can easily get back to the solution. Take each issue one at a time and understand, this is a hobby with a super steep learning curve and just learn bits and pieces daily, but save videos for later so you are not expected to memorize each tip forever. Don't be discouraged, stay with it, and steady and slowly the knowledge will build. Good Luck! :)

[@jManraM]

@@KOrnhOliO1 thanks!

[@monolith2001]

PSA for those who bought the Protek35: The HQProp 8-blade props sound way better (still obnoxiously loud inside tho). Those props also make the Protek turn on rails...quite the experience.

[@verdi6092]

Yup same here 👍🏼

[@LeonSTE]

Is this cinelog35 less loud then the protek35? Because i hate the sound of the protek

[@AerRider]

Matt, aside from your always helpful content, it’s a joy to watch your ever improving pilot skills.

[@lorenzoantoniazzi1718]

Thank you as always Matt!

[@flyineyeaerialfpv5592]

I'm gonna pretend you didn't do camera magic at 4:13....love it. Also, your flying skills are definitely getting better Matt. Awesome video.

[@yourlocalwhat8272]

your channel is honestly one of my favourites on youtube, your videos are really entertaining and answer so many questions in a plain, easy to understand manner. im finally making the deep dive into fpv, i bought the jumper t lite, skyzone cobra x, isdt 608ac, geprc phantom, and a couple other things. i had previously bought this rtf kit, and i had a lot of time to get some sim time in while my packages were being shipped. i live in australia, so all the prices, when converted, are almost twice as expensive, and i also have a bit of a budget, as many people do, so its a bit dificult, but in total ive spent...a little over $2000 on drone gear? again, thats australian dollars, so US it would be cheaper obviously. ive actually spent the last 4 years or so researching fpv (dont talk to me about it) so im, in my humble opinion, at least fairly knowledgeable in the hobby, but i dont have nearly as much experience as most other pilots. i only have a couple batteries, and i can only fly on the weekend so :/ anyway got a bit off topic there, started rambling on about myself thank you so much for the brilliant content you produce, and on such a professional level as well. Good luck in all your future endeavours! (and fingers crossed for winning the giveaway, i actually created an instagram account just to enter)

[@Kiran.Morjaria]

The shots that you took in your house are so cool, they should definitely do house tours like that!

[@jasonalzate3060]

Thanks for the info! Getting this as my first fpv!

[@clancy4202]

I strongly agree with your last sentence, in the country where I live, there is also a similar saying: "More important than the camera lens, it is the head behind the camera."😂

[@NLV_Films]

would love to know your gopro settings. Great video !

[@ernestosalazar334]

Thank you so much for your content, I'm starting into the fpv world, starting with the tbs mambo and velocidrone for some weeks now until I can get my hands on a decent quad just like this and goggles.

[@doctormako]

Saw this video and bought the CL35 performance edition, and I must say, this was the best decision ever. As a beginner this was the perfect quad to start with and I am enjoying every second I fly with it. Thank you for making this video 🤗🔥

[@reflectxt]

Can I ask, did you have to buy a controller separately or did it come with the CL35 because I’m also thinking to buy!

[@wyattkervin2073]

Hey I was curious about getting this as my first drone what controller and receiver should I get for this drone?

[@BOTGRINDER]

it looks like it flys good, more natural then a squirt.

[@TheEmberEdit]

Just ordered this one from geprc a few days ago! Going to try it out with the radiomaster zorro.

[@silentjack4446]

Thanks for all your opinions and the comparison to the Protek35.

[@ADRIANSFPV]

You must try the Ilfight Lipo adapter. So you can fly the Gopro without Lipo, this is a gamechanger!

[@bakerfx4968]

Damn I might need to finally pull the trigger and get one of these!

[@samadams2315]

How do the goggles work? Is it easy to set up

[@TonboCam]

Hi bro. I have a GoPro and use a 6S battery to prevent the aircraft from leaning forward. GoPro is used by fixing it at an angle of 13 degrees with TPU.

[@JanisBebritis]

This might be exactly what i've been looking for, thanks for review. could not care less for instagram so no giveaway for me.

[@jackbisson9226]

Matt I know you already know this but everybody should use ear protection when flying FPV. You do not want to end up with Tinnitus. All it takes is one session and you could hear ringing for the rest of your life.

[@cam_fpv8168]

I have the Cinelog 25 and absolutely love it

[@launchfpv7144]

Hey, just a quick question, I am just wondering what your GoPro settings are for cinematic flying because I really like them? If you could let me know that would be awesome! Thanks!

[@ChrisParayno]

I love the move away from 3d prints for more durable plastic injection molding.

[@lewisrichter]

I've been flying some tiny whoops and old some self build analog drones. Finally made the decision to get my own gear. Bought the DJI FPV System, Remote and Goggles. The CineLog 35 showed up just at the right time for me. Already arrived but unfortunately I have to work and I'm only able to drive home at the weekend. Also bought batteries with the XT60 connector which arrive on Thursday. Stupid me. I am hoping to do alot of adventure videos like hiking, cycling, surfing, skating and snowboarding, could you make an honest comparison between the GoPro Hero 10, a stripped GoPro and the DJI Action 2 in terms of flight behavior? I consider myself as starter and am really interested in how you would change the rates, when using different weight cameras. Like your vids. Keep it up. Greetings from Germany 👍🏻

[@TheNinjaNarwhals]

I haven’t watched yet, but what would you recommend. This or the protek 35? For indoor/ outdoor flying and possibly chasing a car or dirt bikers

[@starlinater10]

Thanks for the video bro. Missed your content the last week and a half. Keep up the great work.

[@IVENtures]

Great video brother, that quad is perfect for both cinematic and freestyle. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 greetings from philippines

[@ags9494]

Thanks bro! Love your videos! I remember mi first flying was just at the same time i found your first videos 🙌🏻 thanks for so much! Sorry my bad english, hugs from Bolivia! 🇧🇴

[@hectorhernandez6846]

Trying to get into drones and I might just start with this whoop.

[@LiveTrainingSession]

Amazing shots. I'm sold.

[@MarkFisch]

This is what I have been waiting for ur review on this

[@ReinhardBiller]

Do you use the drone with a full size gopro or a naked gopro? What flight time do you get with a naked gopro? What is your quad of choice for indoor flights like in a hotel or restaurant?

[@gustavoarios]

Amazing videos Matt, you are so good at this and not only are you a great drone pilot but you have a great way about you and the way you communicate man - You can be working in broadcasting for one the big networks in sports or something, not that you'd want to but I am just saying to illustrate how much I like your style Matt, I wish I could be your friend. Keep them cool videos coming, totally awesome stuff. I just purchased a DJI FPV and my mind is blown, one of my favorite toys ever, I am just a hobbyist and my approach to drones is very laidback and chilled, I do it for fun and they sure put a smile ear to ear on my face.

[@yoppoy6267]

I just got it in 6S and I'm quite surprised how bad it flies with a full size gopro and the recommended 1100 mah geprc battery.It's so noisy to the point that I actually wouldn't wanna use it in close proximity to my subjects. The flight time duration when heavy feels really quite short and I find myself max throttling when taking sharp turns, I wouldn't even try any powerloops given how underpowered it feels. I'm almost wondering if mine has a defect or I've just had higher expectations for this cinewhoop with a fullsize gopro

[@SentesRobert]

Mine is the same....Did you find any solution. I searched the whole internet and didn`t find anything usefull

[@Kahweekah2o2f]

The music used DOESNT make me want sharp pencils deep in my ears. Thanks

[@mikeodell5915]

What receiver and transmitter combo did u go with. There are three options..

[@VEGAtoronto]

just got that one yesterday and I love it! def like it better than my old protek35

[@CarbonGlassMan]

How is everyone getting good video from this quad? That rubber isolating pad that holds the FPV and Gopro cameras vibrates like crazy. My FPV feed looks blurry becuause of the high frequency oscillations that are created by the rubber mounts. When I tighten them all the way down, the blur nearly goes away.

[@tiagomoreira8742]

Great content! Trying to start my fpv Journey already bought my radio, Jumper T Lite and now seeing discounts for googles and drones that I Can afford ;) Hope to see more content or your super well made videos!

[@system4kfin.997]

Hi Matt! Would you recommend to change the antenna to, lets say, foxeer lollipop?

[@SpencerFix]

What are the big differences in flying the 4s version of this vs the 6s version? Is it mostly power/speed, or does battery life come into play too? Which one would you recommend a beginner buy? Love the videos, very well made and helpful!

[@01dimaflash]

Hi! Thank you so much for this review! Some questions: 1) What is the maximum speed (approximately) you were able to get from it? 2) Which version do you have - 6s or 4s? 3) Have you tried using Naked GoPro? 4) What do you think about Dji Action 2? Thank you in advance!

[@MattPochwat]

I have the 4S version. Unfortunately, I don't even have a ballpark answer for an actual speed though. I don't even know how to start calculating that without a GPS 😅

[@Nine_883]

Thank you. I have been asking this question for a few weeks, but have not found anybody who has both the Protek and the Cinelog 35. Is the Cinelog 35 available I the US yet? That’s why I have been considering the Protek 35. It’s available. I own the Cinelog 25 and it’s really good as advertised. I bought the analogue and it was great, but as the leaves are falling off the trees I was smacking ghost branches a lot, so I put a Vista and a Nebula Pro on it from my piece of crap Beta 95 V3. That one is junk.

[@Balajee3605]

Great explanation bro. Your videos are really great and im a big fan your youtube channel.

[@sten6537]

I want to buy a cinequad to film outside & inside. I have a fullsize Gopro 11 and I dont want to buy a naked gopro because of the cost. would you suggest the Cinebot30 or rather get the Cinelog35? I feel that last one might be a bit to big...

[@davidlugo1440]

Can you put a vertical mount on it? I need to be able to shoot vertical shots as much as horizontally? does the cinelog camera have a vertical camera. I wasn't really feeling the cinelog not being even while you have a drone on it. Im leaning towards getting a protek as my first fpv drone buy man idk

[@Reecefpv]

I gotta try a different frame I think I just tried the racewhoop30 frame for cinematic slo flo flying but it seem to be too heavy with the GoPro. I'm thinking this would be perfect. Just curious how it does going really slow. I seem to not be able to get just get one to fly smooth from the get go. Without reelsteady since I don't have it lol. I want it to be smooth enough with just hypersmooth

[@mrcrispybacon578]
