Was wondering why no one had a video for this. Thank you ! And many thanks for getting the analog.
Big fan of DarwinFPV. Best entry-level kit on the market, in my opinion. Lots of solid design details, and their build quality is as rugged as necessary. Great value. If I hadn't just finished my own 2-inch cinewhoop build, I'd be all over this one.
Hi Lee Great video and review of the Darwin CineAPE25, I have been looking at Darwin for a couple of their quads. I just built a 7in using the Darwin 129 7in frame, I just noticed this one last week and thought it was interesting. Thanks again for the video and information about this quad.
Fantastic flying and review, Lee! 😃 Pretty interesting quad indeed! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
very nice whoop . stay safe Lee
Niiiice to see analog getting a look in 😎 Just placed my order 👍 Thank you for being you mate 🤝😎🤗 I wish they didn’t use the ant though 😮
I learned a good one today; you can take a birds nest, add dupont connectors, and you get an airplane. Don't believe me? I got a VTOL T1 Ranger when I did it.
I'm keeping an eye on it👀 seems like a good option to use an insta go2 😃
thats a nice one.
That screech is a feature of pushers. I'd flip the build and fly it as a whoop. Looks do-able. I'd lose a little trust, but that's not important for this type of platform. And I'd use 5-bladed Gemfans.
Hi Lee. Great review. Did you land up putting the walksnail avatar 1s mini vtx in there? Is the frame compatible to just swop out the analogue vtx with the walksnail?
Nice video!! , anyone plays with thoughts on pairing this (or pavo25 or...) with the new dji O3, I think it would be nice (or not!?), would this fit in, and be still under 250grams !??
I just received mine, what is that random cable (sticking out) coming from the SBUS? What is it for?

Not sure what you are referring to. Can you see it in the video?
Hello, does anywone know what the max camera angle is? Like 30 degrees or 45 degrees.
Did you run into issues getting blackbox to log to a sd card? I've tried 5 different sd cards. It either doesn't log or only logs 2-3 sec out of a 30 sec flight.

I have an ELRS version. But, it does not bind with my Zorro ELRS nor TX12 Mk II ELRS. I also tried BetaFlight in order to bind, but the Bind Receiver button does not appear. Any tips? Thanks.

Hey, great video. Would you prefer the i-flight protek R25 analog, or the Darwin cineape analog? I'm torn between the two

Does it come with xt60 or 30 connector?
Did you solder on an XT60 power plug? I watched your video, ordered one which was here 4 days later and then grabbed one of my 4S battery packs excitedly and then.... humph, XT15 plug on my CineAPE 25. You have the XT60, but the other YT FPV channel with a video of this also has the XT15... So I'm confused. I ordered a XT15 to XT60 adapter on Amazon, so hopefully it's here today (advertised with next day ship, but I've seen that fall through before).

@@Painless360 True. I wish mine had came with the mini go pro mount, as the thumb pro camera comes with mini mount. Have you seen a mini to normal go pro mount converter that's light? My two FPVs are 4S (home built and this CineAPE). Do you think it's wise if I just chop off the XT30 it came with and solder on a XT60? I put on a converter and now it's this huge monstrosity.
I have the ELRS version but I don't understand what the RX target is and I can't find it written anywhere on the site.... does anyone have an idea what it is? Thanks
