As a racer, the mobula 6 really got my eye for a while out of the other whoops in general let alone bnf's. The only thing Im worried about is long term use. I really hope the fc on it will last a long time because I just dont have any luck on lightweight parts so far. my current go to race whoop is 22g custom although uses the same motor and prop the mobula 6(19,000kv version at least) uses. Once I know it last a long time, I will pull the trigger on the mobula6 as a lightweight upgrade.
RAB_FPV i got the meteor 65 with the new 0802 19500 ball bearing motors and it is insanely fast. Its my go to 1s.
Long term use is hard to get from a review video. I would expect I have nearly 100 flights on mine now. I put the BT20 connectors on it, see how it handles that.
Out of my current 3 whoops my Tinyhawk S 1s flies better inside followed by the US65. My flying space is much smaller than Nick’s, my Shutterbug85 is a handful inside. Personally I didn’t like the Meteor65 SE 19500kv, I thought the tune was terrible. Might try a Mobula6 down the road.
Hi Nick! Would love a review of the Newbeedrone. Even if it's not the best, they have the best product support in the market and buying one would mean you'd probably have a working micro for a long time.
Omar Hughes I just commented that NBD Hummingbirds take brushless in races but Mob6 may change that.
For what it’s worth to anyone, EMAX may he declining in QC. Two TH2s I got have had the motor plug dear improperly secured to the board and end up snapping off. After that you can’t even direct solder the motors since power can no longer even reach the LEDs. No help from emax either. Be wary.
Try the beta light 1s board,bo3 frame and cam,19000 kv motors,best fastest I've flown,good luck!
That’s the combo in the meteor65
Umm,the beta lite board? I use 1s 300 stick lipo n get 4+ minutes, curious,beta actually sent us the new silverware boards to test, wasn't impressed
@@brianlangford7278 your right its not the lite version
Is DSMX receiver compatible with TX16s controller? Sorry I’m a beginner
Always good info!
Great vid again nick! I’m very much considering the mob6 but I have 2 questions. One, how much more performance do the 25,000kv motors offer? Is it going to fly significantly better? And two, how does the mob6 compare to the tinyhawk S on 1s outdoors? Is the mob6 versatile enough to race indoors and also do some freestyle outdoors on a calm day?
Thanks so much for helping!!
Better is very subjective. The main difference is speed and flight time. higher kv more top end speed but less flight time than the lower kv. The tinyhawk outdoor is going to be faster and more stable, due to larger props on larger motors on a heavier quad. The tinyhawk additional outdoor stability comes from the weight, it will handle more wind than a lighter quad of similar design.
We appreciate you Nick...good gentleman that loves to share!
Thank you
How would u compare the 19,000 kv mobula6 to the BeeBrain brushless? My house isn’t quite as open as yours so I’m not in need of super duper speeds. The brushless BeeBrain feels perfect for power in my house and I’m wondering if since the mobula is so much lighter if it feel similar but longer flights because of so much less weight
David FPV the 19k mobula6 is way better.
I am working on the NBD brushless video. I thought it unfair to not show it.
Do the same for 2020 mate
Betafpv 85 pro 2 or tinyhawk II really can't chose (indoor and outdoor)
for flight performance and time, 85 pro 2.
Some products look great on paper, but only on paper.. The quad I have been waiting to see turns out to be a big let down.. They have terrible timing releasing that quad right after the Mobula 6 drops for like $40+ lower price...
I think after seeing what they did with brushed whoops I was expecting something more.. I guess they have to start somewhere... I still love my brushed whoop..
Another great video Nick.Don't both the meteor 65's have the same 22000kv motors?
The SE has 19000kv motors, unless they changed them after I bought.
@@NickBurnsFPV thanks Nick,glad i bought the lumenier edition. i just preordered a mobula 6 today because you said it's the best.looking forward to 4 minute flights!
where can I get a Team Burns hat?
Nick you're a great guy man and I hope life sends you good opportunities, loved the vid man
Thank you
Thank you Nick, I was just getting ready to order the Acrobee brushless from newbee drones, and NOW well, I think I will go with Mobula 6
For acrobee price you can get 2 :)
@Nick Burns While I wait and wait for my Mob6 order to arrive I've been flying a Meteor65 SE with 22000Kv motors (SE came in 3 variants) and it rips but is 23g. With BF 4.1.1 JESC 48Mhz and RPM filtering it can rip 3:30 in very fast house flying, 45 sec longer than with stock setup. Also rips acro outdoors just fine. I'm sure the Mob 6 will be even better! When I get the Mob6 I will put it in a Meteor65 frame and use BT2 connectors and batts.
First like
and first comment. Double first!
I like the Hat..need some hats for merchandise for the chanel. I have built a lot of configurations of whoops like you. And at the end of the day. The Mobulas7 & 6 is just hard to beat. Probably best bind 'n' fly on the market..Im yet to fly the Mobulas 6 yet...but from your vids alone i can tell its the best performance 65mm quad out of the box..best value for $75 Thanks Nick for honest reviews😀
My mobula 6's were in the mailbox yesterday afternoon and I didn't even realise 😂 batteries are on charge now!
whoa, good thing the mailbox pirates didn't come bye.
Nick, I know it is an old video but... I have a backyard with lot of threes, crawdy and it is difficult to see branchs. What kind of camera can be better ? I have a baby rattel and a nano 2 and they are realy good and good respectively, perhaps too heavy ?
Thanks for all your Videos this year Nick. You are really my go to source for micro quad knowledge. I really hope to hear more about your thoughts around the BT2.0 connector, also i would like to see you try out the silverware brushless boards from BetaFPV.
I order the mobula 6 from banggood 3 weeks ago. Still waiting.
I don’t order from bang any more. Way too long to deliver and sometimes you don’t get your stuff. Not worth it.
took my toothpick a month to arrive. Dont worry it will arrive but it just takes a long time
Even stuff they send for review can take a month. All three of the Eachine Novice quads didn't arrive. Customs took two of them. :(
Nick Burns
Damn. It’s such a coin toss ordering from BG. I’d rather order from US or Canadian sites.
@@NickBurnsFPV what happens to buyers when the item purchased gets taken by customs ? Refund?
That HAT ! #teamBurns is awesome !
lol. Its a funny thing isn't it. :)
Great piece as always...btw, LOVE the BT.20 connectors...noticeably less sag in power-loops, and punch-outs...and a bit more flight time. Look forward to your next review. 👌👍
today 2 new betafpv whoop quads arrived broken From betafpv for members of our FPV indoor whoop group. 2 esc's were not working on one. And the other one had gyro problems and heated upto 74 degrees displaying core temperature too high soon after power up and during flight. Get this stuff fixed before you sell these for over 100 dollars its kinda rediculous that 2 out 2 arrived broken.
I got a Beta85x HD (a cinewhoop) earlier this week - plugged in a 3S lipo and the ESC went up in smoke (literally). I'm not so impressed with BetaFPV myself, either. ☹️😡
@@DrMacca I have never bought a whole quad from betafpv, just components. Motors were not great, some of their frames though were quite good
terrible products very unreliable .. got burned on 3 items from them burned out esc and faulty motors never again
I like the Tinyhawk 2 as a learner - I have bashed the crap out of it - flying 10 1s packs a day for the past 6 weeks. I can easily see the others being a great second step.
Racing - Newbeedrone Hummingbird with plaid brushed motors and venom blades can take brushless so I’d add that as my preference but Mob6 may have the edge now. Great review as always. I’d agree about NBD VTX quality, that gets overlooked because they race so damn well. A majority of our whoop pilots race Newbeedrone here in Tucson and also the Phoenix crew. Camera angle is just a holdover from old school whoop. Most pilots mod and have different whoops for different uses since adjustable like Tinyhawk 2 adds too much weight.
Ayy Kayy rocking a NBD Hummingbird ua-cam.com/video/SJ1AT4AE27Q/v-deo.html
Oh god Nick not again !!!
After your excellent Mobula 6 review, I had to order one directly :) Because of the longer flight time, I chose the 19000kv version.
I'm just shocked by the Tinyhawk 2 !!! You can hardly screw up more !
My own 75mm build with Mobula 7 V2 frame / 400mw / full diversity flysky receiver / TinyhawkS engines / TinyS Cam weighs only 25g.
And I could even slim down 1-1.5g with the 1S AIO Fc from BetaFpv
Even the Tinyhawk S is relatively easy to get with a few cuts here and there on 26g with diversity receiver;)
@Nick Burns I wish you a happy festival for you and your family !!!
I suspect the changes they made are for a very specific market, I don't suspect that market values speed and performance all that much.
Great video Nick..Liked and subbed! Happy Holidays!!
are the battery connectors the same for the above drones
Great Review Nick! I Learn Something New every time I watch! This was Very Helpful. Mobula 6.......seems like a Good choice for now! Have a Good Christmas and New Year also my friend!! 🤗
Hey Nick, good job on the rundown for this episode!! With that being said, you stated you couldn't justify buying the acrobee BL due to price and commonality so there's not much reason to get it. I do have one to add, the customer service and support with newbee drones is the best I've experienced in years. While it is more expensive, I have a ton of of different whoops from different companies and by far when there's a problem the best go to company is NBD!! Also, Horizon Hobbies has been good to me for the last 15 years or so....but since they're pretty much giving up on the whoop scene it seems they don't apply any more. So that's my reason for buying the acrobee BL, I just figured it was worth mentioning and this comment is left with the greatest respect to you and you're channel!! Love all the videos you do man, keep up the good work for sure !!
You are on point. I would expect excellent service, but haven't needed it. Although I have heard from a few (2 or 3) who had bad support experiences with NBD. Could have been the approach.
Nick i feel you on the mobula 6 i have wanted to to finally get me a brushless whoop i do have a custom built beta 85 brushed whoop oh and for your custom i love it lol but even tho some of the whoops do fall short i love watching your reviews and flying even if the drone isnt worth it
Thank you
How lucky are we to have you doing all of this testing and reviews.
Awesome video. Thanks for the comparison
I was really hoping the BB brushless would have been better because I enjoyed the brushed models and was tired of buying motors. Looks like Happy Model as expected will get some more of my money. Excellent video, always like the comparison format because it's so informative. Merry Christmas to your family.
@Sasha Kruse Grim The Beta 75 or 85 pro is a great option. Hopefully somebody will give me some Christmas money. I really fly the toothpick class now, I have almost never fly my 5 inch quad anymore.
@Sasha Kruse Grim Same here, and they are easier to transport and cheaper to repair after a crash usually.
nice whoops and cap
Just one of those whoops would make me wake up a happy man!!!.love your channel and what u do!!!! Great Post Nick!!
........ . 👍😀👍
I LOVE ALL FPV DRONES!!! WISH I COULD GET THEM ALL!!!! But my wife left me and the house is in her name so im screwed!!!! Thanks 4 all the great content!!!
Hide your drones! I got more into those than my house is worth
I watch them all and your the Best!! Your approach, honesty and unbiased opinion is unmatched! I just ordered the Mobula6 and a new FrSky radio. I have no clue how to bind them, but I have to learn. As always..keep it low and slow when you hear an aircraft..Good Day!
Your to kind, thank you.
Give me tiny whoop plss
My other option is FLYSKY SPI. Is that better than DSMX and which one works with TX16s controller? Thank you!
both work with the tx16s.
Yo!! if it wasn't for Jesse, we wouldn't talk about Whoops ,so some credit to Jesse:-))))))) love your flight style by the way :-D
Jessie and Benedikt Hak of the micro motor warehouse, for sure. Thank you
Caps on, it's cool Nick.
Hey Nick, a question on your trashcan 3d printed part. Is that on thingiverse? I would really like to get one (and the hat too😊). Thanks for your work!
Looks like it didn't save it in my collection, but this one is close www.thingiverse.com/thing:3900832
Nick, I wish you also included your custom 75mm build with 1102 10000kv motors into the comparison. How does it stack up indoors against mobula6?
I was trying to stick to RTFs, my custom 75 is likely to get an overhaul with the new runcam nano 3. :)
Nick on the BeeBrain brushless.. Did they build the vtx into the FC like on the brushed version and mobula 6??
yes, vtx is on the board.
Modula6 is the best
Gday Nick, your never crazy Nick its a bit hard to say as i havent flown alot of the micros that you have there and im no expert either, I've only flown some brushed and tinyhawk s micro's i would really like to try the new tinyhawk 2 and the mobula 6 that would be my next 2 to try. I would be curious to see what you think is your favorite of all time micro and the one you would keep, mobula 6? Great review mate 👍🛸
I am thinking of putting a custom build, likely 2s. Have to work on that in 2020.
I've been watching for years - and i've worked this entire pandemic - so i think i'm going to finally buy into this dream - i was going to go tinyhawk 2 rtf, but now i'm thinking radiomaster tx16 and then maybe getting a mobula later? after some simulator work? but then the budget is getting blown out by another 100 dollars at least... - is it worth starting out with the tinyhawk to be sure i love it? - i guess this review has me wondering (other than its durability).
The tinyhawk is less indoor friendly but also more durable. The tinyhawk parts are emax specific, we can't use non-emax parts for repairs. Being cuatious is a solid plan, some get motion sick, this often goes away, others don't have the persistence to learn to fly,. Flying isn't easy :)
if they add 0.2g to their boards to make it 1s and 2s, betafpv 1s board and mobula6 board, that would be awesome. that would happen by next summer. but i wish they would just do it the first time. there is no need to make 1s only boards really.
I wonder if there is a technical issue with making that board with all those components and 2s capabilities. We shall see.
Nice comparison of the current crop of brushless whoops. Your approach of why you would get one over the other (list of priorities) was a really good way to show the positives or negatives of each one. Nicely done.
Thank you
Thank You Nick, for all of your perspectives and advise... your awesome. And keep up all the great work, and Happy Flying!!!
Hmm... I guess if you put mobula6 guts into 75mm frame.. wit bigger props.. it will rip faster.. 😘
Yup, mobula 7 v2 frame and 450 mah battery. Would be an amazing 1s 75mm drone.
@@naomarik not really, motors get blazing hot with 450 on 0802.. i switched to 1102 on 75mm frame and its 100x better
@Sasha Kruse Grim I done a project on the Trashcan/Mobula. I shared it on the trashcan facebook group but i will post it here.
I have 450 2S battery's from tatttu and the 0803 motors got hot, purely because of the extra weight. I had some wobbles but i couldnt increase D, I even tried a TON of filtering just to see if i could just make it cool while flying but that was impossible also. Just 10 seconds of hovering in cold conditions and i couldnt hold the motors for more than a second.
So i bought the 1102 13500KV motors, it's a balance between power and flight time.
It's maybe not faster in top speed than stock motors, they also weigh more.. but you will have ALOT more power straight away , like torque-wise, it doesnt feel like a bus anymore with 450's , it corners way better. Even with the Triblades i'm using.
And lastly, the flight-time increased by a minute or so, i think 4 minutes 30 to 3.2volts.
Edit: Removed a TON of filtering and cant even make the motors "hot" just a little warm. It flies so good. You can apply this theory on the Mobula7, just be carefull with Crazybee flightcontrollers, i'm not sure about the amp draw on that one. I switched to AIO 12A (geprc) FC and can take 4S , only my motors not :P
@Sasha Kruse Grim Matching components is sure fucked up, you should checkout the facebook group from Trashcan, it's almost identical to a Mobula and there's alot you can take away from people's experiences .. It's like a modding community.
I'm usually not into social media so i just made an account for facebook only for quads lol, desperate times takes desperate measures xD
@@boratsagdiyev1586 That's 1 or 2s? I have a 1s that's super cool on 450 mah with 0802, but trying 2s on 0802 is terribly hot..
Awesome list, Nick! Thanks a lot! 😊
Happy Christmas to you and your family!!! 😊
And take care with Krampus. 😬
Thank you. you as well.
Hey Nick, is there a 2020 update coming?
I hadn't thought about it. I will give it some thought and see what might be of use.
well covered pal very well covered and honest > your a really talented pilot man stop doubting yourself .. have a great holiday also ya deserve it
Its not so much I doubt myself, but know there is a wealth of information available and very skilled pilots. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Hey what's on your opinion the Best 2020 2s whoop /micro so far?
I really can't think of a 2s whoop released in 2020. Which ones were you thinking of?
Like the hat nick
Likewise, i'd get one!
Working on getting a link to it.
Also I hate the adjustable camera angle for the simple fact that most of them change after a crash so keeping a constant camera angle seems to be a problem but then again I do freestyle indoors so I crash a lot
give that mobula6 canopy and runcam nano3, I banged it all over (especially the speed runs at max camera angle) and it stood strong.
Was gonna go for the mobula but after hearing it basically can't fly outdoors I'm not so sure. Would def like to be able to do both
Have the mobula7, it flies great outside on 2 s and same indoors on 1s ..
Thanks for posting.Many of us are not able to compare so many models.Your insight and experience helps alot.
Great, glad to hear it is helpful
I feel like the mobula is killing the market nothing else comes close
It does feel that way. really hard to beat at that weight.
With the way nick flys, what he wants is what I want.
Can I join Team Burns? I want this hat!
Lol. I am working on finding how they can be purchased.
Thank you for another wonderful year of pragmatic reviews Nick. Got a few mobula6 enroute, only the 2nd BNF craft I’ve purchased in 35+ yrs of RC, the other being the Lizard95 from a few years back. Both were innovative.....and super inexpensive........life is good:-)
All the best to you and yours for the holidays. Happy flying everyone!
Thank you. Happy Holidays to you and your family as well.
Is there a sweet spot for power to weight for these; with relation to battery life.
The ratio depends if performance or flight time is the goal
If you ever want to let go of the newbee drone let me know I would really like one...and no1 stock in south Africa will to pay shipping but after this whole mess we in keep well....
Thanks Nick👍👍👍👍👍
My meteor65 se came with 22k motors.
hmm. Interesting, I wonder if they switched?
Love the channel, already pre ordered the mobula6 👍
Did you get your pink eye sorted?
Drunken FPV Did you take care of that diarrhea problem.
Mike T FPV I thought that video got removed from UA-cam
Can anyone help? I own a betafpv whoop but I just get afful reception with the copper wire vtx antena.
Id love to see a Newbeedrone Beebrain review for sure!!!
I am going to do that. I don't think its fair for me to drop on it without showing it. It flies pretty well, its just not the mobula 6.
I would recommend the mockinghawk tune for tinyhawk 2! Mine flies great
why is there no spektrum version of the mobula6?
I am not really sure. Maybe they don't sell many of the spektrum editions. Or maybe its coming later?
@@NickBurnsFPV adding an dsm rx will make it heavy. how does it compare to old ur65?
@@zack204 I wouldn't call it heavy, there is a rx or two for dsmx that might only weigh 2grams. But that does mean we add 10% weight and back to typical low weight whoop level. The Mob6 is substantially better, if I had to put a number on it, I would say 25% better or more.
Is the T motor 3 in toothpick good
not sure. I am looking to get one
Maybe im late of this question, but what is better camera between meteor65 (c01) vs mob6 (rc nano 3) in handling light. Im rewatch your video on them and im think cam on meteor65 is better in handling light or direct light. Thanks
One additional factor or whoop cameras can be weight. If we want top performance. Of course if the camera view is a higher priority than performance we choose the camera of our liking. I prefer the runcam nano 3, but there is more than 1 lens. Currently we can only get the v2 of the lens which isn't as good. I would likely still chose the nano 3 for performance, but for a better camera would the caddx ant lite.
@@NickBurnsFPV thanks for reply. Because whoop is mainly play in house or indor for me the winner is light handling. Looking to check out for ant lite then. Thanks nick !
The mobula 6 board is $45
Where did you see it?
Really like the hat I think its perfect! & Alaska has it's zero wind days glass calm as we say because the water is perfectly flat there definitely not often but they do happen and I prefer +3 for out doors anyways thank for your wealth of knolage and skill in determining what you prefer! Its greatly appreciated and well received!
🍻 cheers 🥃 and happy 🎄holidays 🎆
Are you inland or near the coast?
Little of both I suppose I spend most of my year in Anchorage 1/2 way up the mountain but near the cost and the rest out in a small village on lake iliamna one of are largest freshwater lakes and the largest in Alaska.
Waiting for the mob6 to get back in stock. In the meantime I snagged a us65. Thanks for your videos!
Good chit chat, always enjoy a good roundup since there are so many. Does seem like once again Happymodel figured out the right formula because they made new components that the other companies can't compete with. Weight is king and they certainly have shown that with the Mobula 6 and 7. I hate car shopping, so I hope that's done with before your vacation so you and the family can just enjoy!
Its amazing how quickly HM is able to iterate and wonder how long this board was in the works. The new car will likely have to wait, insurance is still in process :(
@@NickBurnsFPV I remember Happymodel posting a teaser that a Mobula6 was coming last Spring (2019), so must have been a while. Well, just don't let the car shopping distract and happy holidays anyways!
I just want to thank you for all your content. In my opinion, you’re one of the very, very few reviewers who is honest and I love the fact that your videos are 100% BS free. Please never change. Looking forward to more videos in 2020. Happy holidays and thank you!!
For a beginner, which TinyHawk model: S or II flies 1. more stable/predictable? 2. has better 'outdoor' range? thanks
The biggest issue is the camera. The S will fly much longer, but the camera isn't nearly as good as the II. I have heard the II has better range, I don't have a large flying space to test range, I don't recall having trouble with the S range
Nick either NBD already addressed the USB / Stubs or I call BS. I have in hand and its not "used as a support" So i will have to disagree at this point in time.
This video being almost a year old I wouldn't be surprised if either the frame was updated or my particular frame was an error.
@@NickBurnsFPV They could have had other complaints too on the QC side. But when i watched similar reviews this was not an issue mentioned, which is why I mentioned it. I have 2 NBD Brushless setups and Im pretty happy with it. Have to agree that they're a a bit on the pricey side, BNf is now $110 US. Happy Flying
"best brushless whoops" leaves out Mobula 7 and the Trashcan.
This was of this year as of date published, mobula 7 was oct of 2018. I do agree the mobula 7 would certainly contend in this group
@@NickBurnsFPV O yeah i just checked i thought it was about 10 months old, but it was 14 months :/
please put the timestamps in a comment
you can't click them in the description on mobile
Oh, sorry I didn't know that.
@@NickBurnsFPV thanks :)
Great review this is why I always come back. Keep it real. Picked up the modula 6 on pre-order a few weeks ago. Glad I came to the same conclusion. Was that a BT2.0 connector on the Modula6? Wonder if there would be any performance gains with it???
Yes I put the BT2.0 on the Mobula6, and a few batteries. I want to test it, but not sure I will have anything on it until next month. :(
A really good point to talk about is availability of spare parts.
Thanks Nick. Have a good xmas and a happy new year.
You as well.
I'm pretty low level experienced at these tiny quads, but I'd ssay you covered it well and darn accurately. Thanks, Jeff. (yes I know this video is older, lol)
Good to hear the video was useful. Thank you
Hey Nick just found your channel and it's awesome. Just discovering FPV. Got a qx7, some ev800d's and velocidrone. Next step is to find a quad I can tear around my yard with. Front & back yards are each probably the size of a basketball court. Not sure if I should go tiny whoop or toothpick with prop guards to practice with. I'm concerned the toothpick might be too powerful for a novice in small area. It's hard for me to gauge since I've never piloted a quad before. Do you have any thoughts on it?
I also have a 3d printer and am really interested in building quads from scratch
I would suggest going with the tinyhawk II or the tinyhawk race. The tinyhawk has the prop guards making it more safe and more durable. It will be challenging to fly, unless your a prodigy :). Start with the basics, hover, straight line, then turns...coordinated turns (roll and yaw, keeping the camera headed in the intended direction). Sims are good training and likely will give you a leg up, if your confident the race will be a pretty good fit for a basketball sized space. Thank you for your kind words about the channel.
@@NickBurnsFPV Awesome, thanks for the advice. It's a hell of a learning curve. It's nice to become part of a community where you can reach out. When I first started the sim I was just pretty much flopping around like a fish. Been watching Joshua Bardwell's "how to fly" videos and understanding the concepts makes it so much easier. I hope to be able to give back to the community as well someday soon.
Great review! If you consider a custom build with Mobula6 parts I'd be keen to see a 5 minutes flight version.
That'll be the next goal for many 65mm pilots and a real challenge on details.
Good luck!
5 min flight? Wow, I don't think I could concentrate that long :)
what about the m7?
Its very good as well, but last years release. This video I was targeting this years release.
Not sure about others but I know I’d appreciate a review of the newbeedrone brushless. Typically like their products.
Yes, coming soon. It was unfair for me not to show it.
Mob6 it's going to be, i think strongly related to my pmb tuned ur65 except for the cam of course, or am i wrong?
yes, the cam will likely bring the weight down another .5 grams and is much better imho.
My choice would have been the TinyHawk Freestyle. Have you ever tried it out? Thank you.
yes I have review the freestyle here ua-cam.com/video/rsmxtUwr6CE/v-deo.html. This video was targeting this year's brushless whoops
excellent round up! =) I've been kinda busy so I pretty much missed all the recent releases ^^;; thanks nick~~~~ and looking forward to that giveaway lol, oh and I saw that accident in your facebook =( man that really sucks...I wish you the best of luck my friend
Thank you. We will get another car after the holidays, we have to wait for insurance to do its thing.
Thanks again Nick ya the nbd is over $200 Canadian
I love the newbeedrone frame and camera but I was kinda surprised when I saw the $149 (frsky) price tag on it. Just too much for what it is
Gonna be hard to compete on price. Although, I note they are currently sold out.
