Hey Stu! I got in to FPV back in 2016ish after you posted your first build a $100 racing quad video. Now, I am still practicing this hobby and it's been almost 8 years! Thank you for bringing much happiness to my life because of this hobby. Btw, is Trevor still around? Best regards from America!

Great to see you back to your older style of review, love it

Stew, great to see you back to speed, posting videos, and making cool content.

Its great to see you back on youtube Stew, thought you had gone forever and what a great little ripper, thanx for the reviews.

Awesome video Stu! Glad to see you again keep it up man!

killer vid and love seeing you at it again and knocking these out the park cheers and wow what afantastic lil ripper

Stu, thank you so much for your videos!! Watching them since 2018

Wow, seems like forever since I’ve got to enjoy one of your videos. Thanks for posting this great review the little guy looks like it’s worth it just for the fun factor. Price and survivability are just an awesome bonus. Your looking good and taking us along on these fun journeys is great, hope to see more of you real soon! 😁🙋🏻‍♂️🇨🇦

Hi Stew, love it man, looks like a blast for sure. Thanks for your dedication to Xjet also.

i second that!!

Just lovin having you back up and flying Stew! Great video! Using your link, cause I gotta have one of these.

I remember when the little diatone 3 and 4 inch quads came out. They were so fast it was insane

Thank you Stu as always! Might buy this one

That reminds me a lot of the TKS Rocket Race. I built one last summer - it is a gas. Super fast and long flights. 2s 2inch is a lot of fun, I'd highly recommend trying a quad like this.

Very similar to what I recently did. Happymodel X12, Bassline frame, RCinPower 1002 14000kv motors, and 2S 525mAh packs. With the Foxeer Toothless 2 Nano, it comes to 38g (68g with batt) and ended up as my favorite.

So cool! I'm getting back into FPV now, just got a Baby Ape, this will have to be the next one! Crazy speed for just 2S!

Thank you for showing off such a nice little drone.

I would also like to know if you tested the 10000kv or 14000kv version?

Awesome I pre-ordered one through your link!

Stuuuuuuu....snap.i miss your videos.great to see you again.

Stew, I started watching your videos when you reviewed the eachine wizard and just stumbled across the bookmark in my browser. Great to see that you're still making videos my dude.

been watching you for several years and glad to see you're still at it. what would you suggest for a complete ready to fly kit if you're brand new to the hobby?

Flying Odonata HD with de-cased vista on 2/3s it’s a little beast, love these smaller form factors

He Steve, thank you mate for all you do within this hobby. I haven't kept up with your channel for a while, I'm so sorry. I've had my own mental issues after losing my family recently but Id like to know if this is a good option for someone with some experience? Thank you for all you do!

Killer quad and a killer review! Fun to watch, authenticity, honesty, attention to details, knowledge. Winner stuff. -Edit: Also, it was you who got me into FPV, so thanks for the hobby 👍

Your review video's are the best. Great to see them back on a regular basis. A couple of years ago your channel combined with Bardwells got me into FPV. Looks like a really fun little quad. Two years ago I build a Iflight Turbobee 120 and these little quads are really great to fly

​@@UAVfuturesI have been building too much drones, almost find building them more fun than flying 😅. Currently I have: Iflight iX5, XL5 and Turbobee 120, Armattan Bumper, Gecko and Chameleon Ti, AOS 7, and the really great and fun to fly Slammed Shendrones Squirt and Geyser. As I said, too much. Now waiting for next spring in the Netherlands. Greetings Harald.

Great stuff stu.i teach kids fpv here in the uk and allways looking for cheaper great kwads.looks awsome.cheers mate

this would be perfect for a pilot transitioning from GPS stabilized quads to fully manual flight. parts are cheap and with its size and weight it wont do much damage to what it crashes into.

Really good to see you having a blast and getting some vitamin D!! Badass lil quad 😮😊

Love your video, 2S Micros they are the best, I have a Happymodel Bassline 2S Walksnail edition, flies just like "YMZFPV Light1", came with very similar setup with the same tri blade props, 1103 11000KV motors and XT30 plug -- fun fun fun and super fast, may be you should mod that "YMZFPV Light1" and upgrade with a a S1 Walksnail VTX, as the props are out of view. 👍

love the energy Stu :)

Hey that was great review and kiler fpv. I’m new to this type of drones. Could you tell me what would you recommend to start adventure with fpv’s?

Awesome video Stew

Great video and superb Malaysia fishing jersey!Greetings from Malaysia..

this looks amazing, i only have one question is there any specific transmitter u need ? yes im new to this whole thing

Great review🎉..I’m wondering what radios work with elrs?

Hey Stew and Raven. Great video and review of the Lightning. These 2s quads are getting better and better. I just built several quads using the aio Happymodel X-12 F.C and 1105 5500kv motors, I have more fun flying micros lately with the new Drone rules, you can fly almost anywhere. Thanks again for the video and information about this quad.

Hey @UAVFutures - what is the camera protection made of - the "roll bars" so to speak? Are they plastic, carbon, aluminium? Cheers Stew.

Looks awesome, I'm still flying around with my LarvaX though haha.

Can you recommend a complete drone controller goggle kit for fpv newbs? Maybe even a build your self model or both prebuilt and diy?

Reminds me of the Diatone 2108 GT-M series but as a micro. Looks amazing for the price, I missed if it was the 10000kv or 14000kv?

Awesome!

I still have the diatone 349 rabbit 3inch drone.. my favourite 3 inch drone👍 and the furibee X215 is an excellent 5 inch and holybro Kopis 1😀 what were your stand out quads guys and gals??

I had a question what kind of receiver works for this I have a frshy x lite would that work or do I need to buy a new remote

Great video 😀

I'm curious if it's gonna be similar/ if this can replace my crux35's as my travel quads. Crux35 gets me 5-7 minutes on a 4S 650. I can see it having the same weaknesses as in the snapping the single plate frame or motor strikes disabling the tiny motors. Awesome review thank you.

Might have missed you saying it in the video but was it the 10000 or 14000KV version you tried?

What is the motor size? It looks like a serious ripper. I like it! Awesome review bro.

I have the rotor riot 1s and 2s it’s Walksnail so 275 but I love them

Super fun micro quad, I bought it and am enjoying it, using dogcom 2s battery, getting 9min+, thanks for this video as it inspired me to buy it and I am glad I did, Not dissapointed, I also use a rubber band to be able to use the dogcom (560mah i think) battery, which is the best battery for this quad imo.

Hey Stewy, What motors did you have? 10000kv. or 14000kv?

Awesome 💯

What Kv motors was your running?

Is there room to install a walksnail or hdzero 1s vtx? Seems to not even mind a little extra weight.

Hi Stew im trying to get into FPV flying and was wondering what controller and headset you have aswell

oh I didnt hear you mention the VTX what are we talking here 200mw? and how was the range? thanks brother

what is the battery you use? Do you have a link?

Did you get the 10000kv version or the 14000kv for the video?

Why was I disappointed when you didn't say techs and specs 😂 great video dude it's definitely a ripper

First video I’ve watched of your channel and you’ve cost me 150 bucks. Really hope it’s worth it. Would love for this to be my travel ripper!

why does you patch antenna have a long af shaft? and why is it pointing off into the ether?

Dang i literally just bought a crux35 few hours ago, now i want this 😂

i have a walksnail headset, and want to try this drone....i need a different video trnasmitter? how would I got about pairing these up?

Ok I want one. Looks like the have a Crossfire version too!

Do you think it's appropriate for beginners? I have a flysky i6x transmitter and I'm not planning to buy a new transmitter at all, I suppose it's not compatible? Thanks. P.s.: I've got 2s and 3s batteries around 2000mAh, can any type of FPV drone use these batteries?

Those Fishing jerseys are cool

Would I be able to change the reciever for a crossfire receiver?

Merry Christmas

Nice flying...it does look like tiny trainer 533.

You gotta sell that prop bush in the background at the last screen.

I was wondering what drone kind you got is it the 10000KV one or the 14000KV

I don’t know yet how to fly FPV mode yet I have two drones the DJI FPV and the new DJI Avata goggles will any of these controllers and goggles work with this drone?

reminds me of my DarwinFPV tiny ape but i was running 3s 500mah it was fast

Im definitely buyin one

What Propsize do you use?

Could this carry a little Insta360 GO 3?

You should organize your drone wall by prop color 😅 maybe make a gradient if you can, you probably got enough lol what a collection! 🔥

Can i use it with tbs nano rx? Thanks

Well I ordered ones cause of the video

How do you reckon it would handle a light camera like a runcam thumb pro? Potentially decased

I think it would handle it fine. I flew it with a 1000mah battery and it still was great, even with the extra weight

I could see Nick Burns fly that Thing his house haha

it is a fantastic droin 🎉

nice vid

Not sure I like the AIO, if anything breaks on those it's done. Other than that, it looks like a really nice lil beast. I've been looking for a nice fast micro with HDZero to replace my whoops with. I wonder if that frame would have the space for it

Aios are a lot more reliable than they used to be, and good luck finding a micro of this size with a stack. There's barely any 16x16 stacks left on the market and a 20x20 stack would either be heavy, or just as reliable as an aio if they tried to make it that lightweight.

Does the flight controller have a place for a buzzer?

Hey Stew, thanks for the great review! Please update the coupon. It can no longer be used!

Hmmm, doesn’t look like it’ll kick my Tinyhawk 2 Race out of the bed. Seems to fly very similarly - maybe a niggle faster (7,500kv vs 10,000). Plus I have like 6 of them and a whole box of spare parts. Ordered one nonetheless 🤙🏽

Recommendations for goggles and controller?

Do you have to buy the FPV goggles, radio control unit, and battery separately to get up and running with one of these mini drones?
