17 gram Air65 is super nimble, it has almost no inertia and can turn on a dime. I only have comparison to a 21 gram whoop but it feels like a rock in after flying the Air65
Hi Stew and Steve, Great video and review of the Sub250 Nimble65. Well, that's a cool little quad. But I still love my old mobula 65, Thanks for the video and review of the nimble 65
From my experience of racing whoops every other week with 4-10+ other pilots at multigp chapters... is that everyone at races has hdzero whoops, the hummingbird RS v3, or custom made/modified sub 16g whoops. Please ensure a drone gives a clean 25mw across all channels before suggesting it for racing. Otherwise a new pilot will likely blow other pilots out of the air and not be allowed to race with this whoop outside a heat with themselves, and more likely than not with inconsistent timing results. I get 8-10 laps with a hummingbird racespec v3 with very used batteries still coming back at 3.5v. newbeedrone relied on lived experience to make a drone racers actually need...
stew ! how r you? my question is where's trev? you ever hear from him and all the guys you used to fly with at the old place? sorry if its a sore bump ,just curious.
More and more I realize that i prefer Whoops for the sheer acro possibilty and the fact that you can fly in public space without people risk of being hurt. Also the price now that DJI got the 04 light .. i 'm waiting for a new generation or 2s to got out... 85 or 75 maybe... NICE REVIEW Again!
There's like 5 minutes of blank space at the end of this video starting at around 14 and 1/2 minutes. I'm surprised you haven't tried the Air 65 or Air 75. I have an Air 65 and it's wonderful. I like my meteor 75 pros well. It's a lot of fun to fly. I'm planning on buying both the racing hummingbird and the nimble 65 that you have in this video tomorrow. It should be interesting that to see the difference of how all these fly. I have the air 65 champion racing edition as well but I haven't flown it yet.
I just bought a Mob6 HD0 65 but I've purchased the 85mm frame so that I can swap everything into the bigger frame. My belief is that the bigger frame offers more impact buffer to the AIO board which is the expensive part of the woop? I'll just get some decent 1s cells or convert a few small vape lithium ion cells if I want longer flight times of the HD0 sufferers from sag on 1s? In my opinion there seems to be non-logical obsession with woops being so light weight being "paramount" sure there is going to be greater impact inertia with a heavier quad but when you are already super super light weight..... There isn't any laws for being 10 x under the maximum weight lol. There reaches a point of nerdiness where structural integrity is the only thing being reduced with weight? It's not just about inertia but flexibility and rigidity? Increasing flexibility in the frame will not always translate to durability? impact energy can result in potential elastic energy. Think of the frame as an obstruction to impact, the more flexible the less obstructive meaning instead of the cheapo frame breaking you are fracturing your AIO main board? There is a new woop frame I just noticed that has a plastic bottom plate integrated to buffer the circuit board from direct impact by having a plate more rigid and slightly larger than the AIO board footprint 👌 I would have purchased this frame but it wasn't available as far as I could see? I'll jump back online and get the name of it Frames are so cheap for these woops that I don't understand why people don't just buy a whole bunch of different frames and props and just transplant everything from 1 from to another? Literally undo the screws and drop everything out all connected and put it in another frame? No big deal this isn't a 5 inch FPV build lol
What wins at a race, top speed or handling?
In my case... durability 😅
Little bit of both plus lots of stick time

UAV doesn't know what he's talking about as usual.
after watching u guys flying analog it takes me back to ware i first started fpv. nice flying guys
Frame and canopy breaks easily. The weight is probably making a big difference.

PS I love the flight video at the end.

who else waited for the bonus footage???????

Enjoy summer. 🌞 I always take it for granted and now I have to freeze my ass off if I want to fly
Very cool little guy!
For me it's handling.. flying the betafpv Meteor 75 Pro and it kicks A$$! Keep it up Stew! Whoop Whoop!
My 2019 Mob6 still rips haha.

Gee these new whoops just absolutely Rip though hey, so good to fly outside with no stress but still lots of fun.
Yeah they are awesome!!
The humming bird just doesn’t fly as well as other drones in it’s class. The Betafpv Air65 is very close in weight, but flys noticably better.
Horrible lit quad the first one flown. The signal would break at 20 ft wft that's a horrible product
