We love flying FPV. Take a look at some of our favorite drones and accessories.
The iFlight TurboBee 77R is a ducted 77 mm quad with some serious power. No longer are we calling these Tiny Whoops as that name doesn’t seem appropriate for the powerful brushless motors and ESCs that manufacturers are putting in these quads. This is a fun power whoop that can handle a 2S, 3S or …

It is no secret that I love my original Emax Tinyhawk, but the new Tinyhawk S takes it up a notch. The original is a great drone for flying both indoors and out. Emax did all the little things right when they made it. My only wish was that it could handle a 2S battery. …
The Happymodel Snapper 7 is a 75 mm tiny whoop style drone. It is a blast to fly, mostly in part to its powerful 0802 19,000 KV brushless motors. It may not have the name recognition of the Mobula 7, Tinyhawk or Trashcan but it is definitely worth a look. If you are like me …
The HBX68 is a super light and small Tinywhoop that will fly on 2S power. It measures just 68 mm from motor to motor and weighs in at 25.6 grams. If you want a small and lightweight quad for flying indoors then this definitely is worth taking a look at. It is smaller than the …
I have been flying a lot of “tiny whoops” lately. Two reasons mainly: 1. I live in the Chicago area and the winter weather has been brutal so I am forced to fly indoors. 2. I love these tiny things. I’ve flown dozens of different models and they are a blast. The ducts act like …
The Eachine E013 Plus is a brushed FPV microdrone. It features powerful 8520 motors, a 1000 TVL camera, and comes in a variety of ready to fly packages. This is an excellent low-cost option if you are looking to get into flying FPV. The E013 Plus even features a flip over after crash, aka turtle …
The Eachine Trashcan is a 75 mm ducted whoop that in almost every way is an upgrade to the incredibly popular Mobula 7. It has bigger motors (0803 to 0802) it uses an F4 flight controller instead of an F3, the VTX is switchable from 25 to 200 mW instead of being fixed at 25 …
Eachine Trashcan is better than the Mobula 7, right? Read More »
I love the Emax Tinyhawk. It is absolutely one of the best beginner FPV quads that you can buy. It is incredibly durable, fun to fly and the ready to fly package might just be the best FPV deal on the planet. I’ve flown hundreds of batteries with this quad. That means I’ve crashed it …
Drone racing is an exciting sport and if you’ve ever seen it on ESPN then you know why it is growing. GoDroneX is the brainchild of drone guru Gregg Novosad and he has helped to coordinate drone races at schools in the Chicagoland area. Students compete on teams against other schools. But it isn’t just drone …

Spoiler alert: I love the Taranis X-Lite. I believe that Taranis makes some of the best radios and the X-Lite is my new favorite. I’ve long been a fan of the QX7 but find it a bit large, especially for taking it with me. The new X-Lite just feels right. Taranis X-Lite The Taranis X-Lite …
