Radiomaster Pocket In-flight Impressions
Ғылым және технология
Quick little impressions video on the Radiomast Pocket while in-flight.
I suck at talking and it gets even worse while flying haha.
Going to post an edit of flying with the pocket next without stick cam but as I got more comfortable with the radio.
Overall I think I am going to like this radio once I get some fresh 18650 batteries for it.
I may design and 3D print some shorter stick ends for it just for ergonomic reasons but also they will need to be able to stow away like the stock ones.
The stick ends use M3 threads unlike the iFlight Commando and DJI radio that uses M2 threads so I can't put my Commando stick ends on this unfortunately.
The radio feels a lot more sturdy than I thought it would. Once the batteries are inside the weight makes it feel a lot more sturdy than just how light it is without them.
Gimbals feel smooth so far and definitely better than my iFlight radio.
The buttons are pretty easy to partially depress. I had a couple times where I would slightly touch it and my radio would say "armed" mid flight but the switch isn't actually getting fully depressed so I never had my quad disarm on accident. Just had to adjust how I was holding it a little and I was good.
Not sure I will be fully switching over from the iFlight Commando 8 but this will definitely be in my bag.

I like this video! Well done mate! I've just bought this radio and I'm waiting for the delivery. It'll be my first radio at all.

Thank you! 8 months in and I am still using the radio. I've dropped it off 6'-0" shipping crates accidentally and it survived the tumble. You will definitely enjoy it! Get some 18650 batteries while you wait as it does not come with them.
Nice video

Thank you 🙏
nice review !! flying looks really good with it, even if getting used to it, did some smooth matty's there, the stick end storage is sickkk ! its lot smaller then I thought though wow, and also do you ever feel like your going to hit any of the buttons by mistake ? I always see all the buttons on top and think dang, I will for sure hit those mid flight lol 🤣

I wouldn’t really call it a review but thanks man! Gonna fly it some more and maybe do an actual review of it but probably not since there’s lots out there. If I have issues or anything I’ll do an update video. I also have large hands which makes it look even smaller lol I have tapped the arm button accidentally but not enough to actually depress it and disarm my quad. It’s definitely possible though depending how you hold it.

@@_tcmore ok thanks for info ! and yeah I meant just like lite review, you have no reason not to say its crap if you thought so, feel its good to see your flying nice with it, still hard for button layout though. when I get it I want to make a ELRS build, do a small build first to make sure I can figure it all out and then hopefully, for my next one wanted to do like ELRS with 03, just a dream for now though would be a while.

@@ghostdropfpv honestly people make ELRS sound way harder than it is to deal with. Occasionally I’ll have an issue flashing it with the actual configurator but if I do it with the wifi method it’s almost never failed me. I accidentally flew a spot with a parking garage with my radio set to 10mw and I didn’t even failsafe when I went through the parking garage with a shit ton of concrete between myself and the quad. This little guy can do 250mw and can have a nano module added if you need more power. It’s crazy that it costs so little to be honest.

@@_tcmore Thanks again ! I think I should be fine setting it up, that's good to know though and yeah people make it seem like its going to be hard, also I don't think I will need more then 250mw if it goes its rated distance, is pretty crazy.

@@ghostdropfpv you only need more power if you are going into some serious concrete buildings and/or metal structures
Is it good for 5inch freestyle??

I haven’t used it with my 5” yet but I used it with my 3.5” freestyle build yesterday and had zero issues so I don’t see why a 5” would be any different. If you need more power for bandos with thick concrete you could always put a more powerful elrs nano module on the back as well.

I have now flown it with my 5" doing freestyle and can verify it works great!
