No bro, not one tuning PID doesn’t happened when you vihecle having weight 0,5kg or different 2kg, prop rotating 5inch so fast, 10inch … very different
@@popriehI see words, but you aren't saying anything. Please explain yourself. @phiveone That, combined with props that are actually factory balanced these days. Balancing props was, for a long time, absolutely necessary for stable flight.
I think it's both and you're both right. Poor frame engineering and design results in oscillations that can't be filtered and/or tuned out. I just ordered this thing. Once it arrives I will see how well the claims hold up. If I remember I'll come back here and report my findings.
@@dr0n3droid you need to see better, use 👓 , i tell about the vehicle have different weights, propeller diameters, and this difference is not compensated by any PID setting
Beautiful editing, so glad I found this video. I've been curious about a large framed drone for a while and you answered a lot of the questions I have. Your channel will do well.
Hi from England. You mentioned getting cold hands. If you got an old sleeping bag you could cut the bottom off and add a plastic window so you can see the screen and put the remote control in the sleeping bag. Close the entry hole with velcro. You can make holes for the ariels etc as needed. You can still wear gloves too. You can also buy heating pads that run off a 5 volt battery. Google 5 volt usb heating pads and you should come up with something. I recently bought some bar cycle mits for my bike, which is where I got the idea from. They are like a bag that fits on your handlebars over your breaks and you slip your hands in. All the best.
Helion is very easy for FC to overheat to temperatures above 70 degrees. Is it true that Helion is not reliable in tropical countries with hot temperatures or is it not suitable in coastal areas because the cover lacks air circulation?
Hello, great, I would like to know if this drone with the DJI Goggle 2 has better video reception in glasses than a Nazgul Evoque V2? video?, thanks!!! 👍
@@Philip_Halvorsen Hello, Yes with O3, sorry I don't speak English, I will use a translator, as I understand you, you say that with O3 the video reception should be better with the DJI Goggles 2 on the Iflight Helion?...
Amazing content, photage, clear and detailed explenation and postediting. I am starting to pickup on many amazing channels with few subscribers while "influencers" seem to have 100k+ subs. Unbelievable. Keep it up Philip and good luck!
Random question, I know, but what gloves are you wearing? I need something for flying FPV in the cold that can keep my hands warm but still allow me to feel the sticks.
Dude, this vid is pure fire - awesome review and those shots, man! It's practically begging to be iFlight's official ad! Subbed to your channel after catching this gem. Big ups on the success vibes for your future content! Quick Q: Just hopped on the Chimera 7 Pro V2 train, and I gotta know, what's your take on how it stacks up against Chimera7 (wind resistance and the whole flying vibe)? Keep shredding, bro!
What was the lightest battery/performance ratio u got for the BOB57 on long range? I can't seem to get anywhere close to 15 mins on LiIon 4k or Lipo 3300.
That is a sweet looking drone. Iflight makes solid, nice looking builds. Almost $1000 just for the drone oooomphh. I would be so nervous to loose it in the mountains haa
Can you provide an extended explanation of how to get the same setup that you're using. Looking into buying this drone but not sure what receiver, battery plate, headset etc that you're using and where do one get those batteries that your using and mount them on the drone?
Very useful and nice review. Are you using the DJI goggles? Also, what type of range extender are you using on the goggles? Which ones would you recommend to extend the video range for the goggles? I have a DJI Avata and the video quality gets choppy when the drone is a highly wooded area
Great shots! And yes...gotta keep those hands warm for sure. So EPIC when you have a buddy who can help create those 'chase fpv clips', which look great! Looks like a beast of an quad...thanks fore the review!
really great footage. It's really nice to see what it looks like on the Lofoten Islands now. I was there in the summer and also flew FPV, but with snow it looks incredible too.
Hello Phillip, Greetings from Northern Michigan & new Subscriber as of today. I ordered the Helion 10" with Crossfire from NewBeedrone & mine still hasn't shipped yet but I did go & purchase 2 Upgrade Energy Dark Lithium V2 21700 8400mAh 6S 22.2V 25C Li-ion Batteries & I was wondering what XT60 Lipos your using & where I might be able to buy some? Also is the quad straight forward as to setting it up or is it difficult? I've read some post about this being a little difficult. I'd love to hear your take on this. Thank you & I look forward to hearing from you. Happy Flying!
Bischen mehr Telemetriewerte wäre schön. Welche Betaflight Version habt ihr drauf? Super Aufnahmen! Schöne Gegend. A little more telemetry would be nice. Which Betaflight version do you have? Super shots! Beautiful area.
The footage from that is butter and graded perfectly. i guess the subject helps, too! hahaha But also the footage from the rest of the review is super high quality and cinematic also! Great job! Makes me want a 10"! 😃
Amazing video man!!! I’m planning to buy first fpv drone, already have the Dji Mavic 3 pro for cinematic shots, but I need to film some water sport activities with the yachts. And I found this drone so nice for my next project !
First of all great video. I didn’t catch if you said which GoPro you’re using? The quality of this video is next level man.i will definitely need one of these GoPros on my drone
Why is the camera mounted on the top instead of the bottom? Do you run into any instances where the field of view is partially obscured with it being mounted on the top?
Looks great hate the battery on the bottom when doing flips in makes the quad sling shot, also battery on bottom hitting rocks in a crash is a great way to start a fire on a mountain not covered in snow!
10-inch Long-range is not made to do crazy flippy-flops. It´s really perfect for cruising! And bottom mount makes sense for having the most flexibility for all different battery sizes. Top mount can also easily hit a rock if it crashes
@@Philip_Halvorsen why have a quad that is limited, who doesnt want to do a roll or two, and yes bottom battery is much much more susceptible to a battery being ripped off if your mountain surfing and its the closes thing to the ground or rocks, i like the look of the drone im not a fan of bottom mounted batteries after flying FPV for the last 12 years.
Looks like a slick rig! I've got a 10" that I fly sometimes, but I find that I can get 20-30 mins of flight time out of a 7", so I haven't found the need for the big guy comes up very often. It does look like you need to pick up a transmitter glove of some sort, though! Make the most of those flights!
@@Philip_Halvorsen When I need 30 minutes, yes. If a 12 minute flight is sufficient, then I'll still run like a 5200 mAh 4S lipo, to have the amperage headroom without as much weight. The 21700 4S2P packs I run can do 100A if I need them to at 8.2 Ah, but they're quite heavy -- not as bad as running a 5Ah 6S pack on a 7", though! They still feel agile enough for dives and such, even with a li-ion pack and a gopro. On my 10", I generally run 10Ah 6S packs; I found it flies a lot better with a little more heft to it, but I think I'm running bigger motors than you are. I really should try upgrading to the latest betaflight and see how nicely I can get that 10" to fly. =D
Appreciate that! I do have specific certification, but you can be a member in a Hobby flight club to fly FPV without a Spotter. Just need insurance, register on Flydrone.no and then can fly it on A3 open category
The shot at 7:36 looks like some vibrations were affecting the gopro. I noticed this on some other reviews too. Do you experience it a lot? Im worried it will make my footage unusable.
What are you planning on doing for RemoteID compliance? I'd like a module I can solder to the flight controller so I don't have to 'remember' to turn it on or face the consequences when they enforce it next month. :/
Wow, the most incredible cinematic shots I have ever seen! I am flying 5 inch freestyle quad and after watching this video I must try long range witch some bigger drones. Great job with amazing shots! I was having great time watching them.
Hi everyone! I have problems with vibrations on the video recorded by the action camera. Especially in the descent part. Does anyone have any advice on this? what can I do to avoid vibrations in the video? Thank you
This is a fantastic review, Philip. What gorgeous scenery, too. I love this quad, but wish I had some mountain ranges like that here in South Oz to fly it down. Awesome mate! 🙌❤
The "amazing stability" literally from the PID tune and not solely from the build. iFlight definitely makes solid bind-and-fly builds though.

This review is so so so well put together! Such a pleasure to watch some insane shots in there
Thanks so much! And thanks for making the most exciting and well put together FPV drones🤩
Ilfight makes such good quads. Love my og chimera 7.
Interesting build - I'm not used to seeing such a large drone with such a small camera. I'm sure it doesn't notice the gopro weight at all 🙌
You’re right! It barely notices the Gopro at all
Beautiful editing, so glad I found this video. I've been curious about a large framed drone for a while and you answered a lot of the questions I have. Your channel will do well.

How does this frame compare to the Rekon 10 and Foxeer Aura 10?
That would be an interesting comparison!
best review on youtube, thanks!
Glad you liked it!
i love every part of that fpv is getting more consumer friendly!
Man your content instant one of the best fpv accounts out there
Absolutely fantastic work guys. Amazing footage.
Nice vid! Quick question, what batteries you use on the BOB57?
Thanks! i use the 2800mah batteries from Gens Ace
WOW!! iflight are smashing it ..
WOW! Video well done and i like the choice of music
What setting for the gopro and how you get very big field of view and linear at the same time ?
5,3k 30fps and in 8:7 mode :)
Have you flown the 7' Chimera Pro as well? If so how would you compare the two and which one do you prefer?
Random question, I know, but what gloves are you wearing? I need something for flying FPV in the cold that can keep my hands warm but still allow me to feel the sticks.
The gloves i use are from Vallerret :) they are called the Power stretch Liners
What comm accessories should be paired for longe range? (fpv protocol, tx/rx,...)

Keep shredding, bro!
What was the lightest battery/performance ratio u got for the BOB57 on long range? I can't seem to get anywhere close to 15 mins on LiIon 4k or Lipo 3300.
I used mostly 2800mah lipo to get 9-11 minutes flight time, and around 15 minutes with 4500mah Lipo
That is a sweet looking drone. Iflight makes solid, nice looking builds. Almost $1000 just for the drone oooomphh. I would be so nervous to loose it in the mountains haa
Only thing it needs is a bottom protection plate for the Lipo. I do not like landing on the battery surface. Only thing forgotten here.
Have not had any damage to the battery even in hard landings, but @babang_des mounted an bottom protection plate on his Helion!
I feel like if they make a frame available in 10 and 9 inch size builders would love this, I would make it 8s and when the O4 comes out put that in it
would need longitude, latitude and altitude values, do they provide access programmatically for this kind of data? is there some kind of API or sdk
Can you provide an extended explanation of how to get the same setup that you're using. Looking into buying this drone but not sure what receiver, battery plate, headset etc that you're using and where do one get those batteries that your using and mount them on the drone?
Very useful and nice review. Are you using the DJI goggles? Also, what type of range extender are you using on the goggles? Which ones would you recommend to extend the video range for the goggles? I have a DJI Avata and the video quality gets choppy when the drone is a highly wooded area
Some of the footage captured is amazing!
So many great shots. Great flying.

Hi there, does the helion have features such as the Avata, like different modes since it's using the DJI O3 unit?

Thank you Philip Halvorsen for this video, well edited and filmed. I am looking forward to seeing your channel grow.
Hey Philip,
great review! What do you use for coating the electronics? I didn't catch that. 🙂
Thanks! We used Worry Free to make it waterproof :)
Makes me want to get into FPV again! :D great video .
Does it come with the view finder/mask that you put over your eyes?
Are you flying the helion with the 4.4 or 4.5 (beta) software to remove micro vibrations on the tune? This it the best review on youtube.
Nice, good to see tests with familiar terrain :)
You have to visit so we have to fly together!

will it work normally with a 600 gram camera, Sony yam 10 ? Or is 7 inches enough for her?
It can! but have to be balanced correctly with the battery more in the back
@@Philip_Halvorsen Yes, I've been flying with Sony for a week now, with 55mm zeiss
Awesome review! Thanks. Do you have a link for that 6S lipo? A google search came up blank.
Can you fly like in some sort type of auto mode instead of manual ?! Like the avata?! Thx man 🤘🏽🛩️
You can turn on Angle mode, and it will hover, but it does not have any sensors for any Auto mode like Avata 🙌

Omg what controller do I need to buy to bind EFFORTLESSLY just about?
Very well made review! Keep it up!
It's reworked 10 inch version of HL7 that is what it reminds me of. Otherwise its well done video, I wish we have mountains like this where I am at.
Fantastic flying man! May I ask which controller and goggles you are using?
Does it have a XT60 or XT90 Plug? I ordered one but I don't know if I the Batterys need an XT90 Plug

How does it compare to the GEPRC Crocodile 75?
Hi everyone! I have problems with vibrations on the video recorded by the action camera. Especially in the descent part. Does anyone have any advice on this? what can I do to avoid vibrations in the video? Thank you
Beautiful shots.
I find it unusual that iflight would give away the utility of the top for a cover.
And to bottom mount the expensive battery without landing legs.
Given the size of the drone and payload it offers, wouldn’t imagine it would be hard to make some rigid legs that wouldn’t add much more weight.
Very good video. Please, can you share some blackbox files from FC? I would love to see how the resonance looks.
Thanks! I think Ellis Van Jason shared some blackbox files, and the resonance looked incredible!
Can you post your setup, I boughtr Helion and battery 8000 gives me 8-9 mins
This is a fantastic review, Philip. What gorgeous scenery, too. I love this quad, but wish I had some mountain ranges like that here in South Oz to fly it down. Awesome mate! 🙌❤
