Nice comparison to all the other small radios. It's good to hear the opinion of a person who actually uses these small radios every day. That counts for a lot more than the guy who only flies the big radios.
If I made a video on a large radio and talked about how perfect it is, I would feel like a complete fraud. I don't know how these other channels can look at themselves in the mirror. 🤦♂️
@@AlbertKimTV When every new video, the product is the best ever, you kinda wonder if they are being truthful or not. Of course, they need to say whatever they have to bring home the bacon and feed the family so its just par for the course.
I really like the shape and size of the Pocket. Like the box radio style, no switches close to gimbals ( I tend to pinch and sometimes on these smaller radios my fingers hit the switches). Been looking for a smaller radio, using a T12 for travel but the switches on top of the gimbals 😠. Have thought about just removing the switches. This Pocket radio might just be the answer. Great review Albert!!! 👍
This is really cool. The price point you cannot beat. I love my tango 2, but this is tempting. I wish this was available before I got the ranger module for elrs it would have saved me time. I PERSONALLY loved the dji radio it what I learned on. Now I'm used to full size gimbals now. I definitely need to retain my brain,like you said the smaller gimbals are the future. I wonder if DJI will make a 4 antenna 04 radio ? after the air 3 release with 04 transmission . Also TBS is due to make something new. I'm not sure if that's ever going to happen. This is PROBABLY the most interesting radio yet. Thank you for the reviews.
I also love my tango 2, but after breaking the antenna recently, I believe this will be my next radio. Shouldn't be too difficult to swap my quads to elrs
Great review. I think I’m as well more on the side of the small transmitters, even though everybody is trying to sell you the big ones. And I checked on the radiomaster website and the stick ends extensions for the pocket are available now. Since I’m a pincher I’ll get these.
I bought a TX16S a couple of years ago then bought my son a jumper T-lite. I definitely don’t miss the weight when I use his radio. Small sticks make it easy reach full stick deflection in all corners.
I think im gonan recommend this radio to a friend of mine, he really wants to fly fpv but he doesnt have a big budget he said he wanted to fly with a sim first to practice and he already had a pc he said so he only needed a radio but he didnt want something too expensive so i think this one is perfect for him!
For that price, it’s an excellent radio. It also has all the features that people who love the tango2 like. I don’t like having all those switches that stick out and can break. The size is awesome great. I wish this came out like a year ago
Fantastic review, Albert! Thanks! 😃 About the stick ends, don't use a file! Get a 400 grit sandpaper sheet, it should be more than enough. If you need to, glue a strip of it to a scrap of plywood or something like that and you're golden! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Exactly. I bought too many large radios with 30 switches that I never used..... FrSky X-LITE was my first small radio and I am sticking with the smaller radios. Just picked up RM Pocket
Haha maybe. But shit, I am 57. I got into RC Gas planes in 1997 over 25 years ago. I am an Electrical Engineer love tech, after I started seeing FPV Videos on youtube, I am back in the game. Never too old to have fun! You should have seen the old AM & FM Futaba radios; it would make you laugh. We had to plug in Crystals of different frequency in the back of the radio to select our channels. There was a board on the flying field you would PIN and Check what frequency were flying so you would not jump on someones channel.
Wow!!! This thing is quite small. It's quite obvious that this thing is (based on your thumb size in relation to the gimbals.) Great review. The compact size would be great for those looking for a compact travel/back-up radio. Thank you for this great review.
hello again.....nice review... what do you think for my first radio? Since I don't have a big budget... I'm thinking of a zorro , boxer or pocket... thanks for your channel
@@AlbertKimTV I like the shape of the pocket and the boxer.....there is not much difference in price....I would like to buy with multi protocol. and eventually buy a crosfire or an elrs ..... what do you think?
Hey Albert -- thanks for all your new and past videos well detailed ✌️😎 I been away for a few years now - and I flew analog - set was I flight 3 inch - with skyzone 2 goggles on frysky radio -- your opinion I want to get flying again -- all though the Digital set ups are up there in value and price --- are analog becoming dinosaurs -- or do u think the right set up can have good fun flying -- thanks again I message u lol but I thought I post here maybe others like me might want that value opinion 💪😎
Hey welcome back! I pretty much no longer fly analog anymore. I mainly fly DJI O3. The video quality difference makes flying more enjoyable IMO. Granted, the cost is high, but the cost is worth it for me. You may still have fun on analog but I'm not going back. I only fly analog now for BNF reviews. I won't be building another analog quad again anytime soon.
This wont be replacing my daily driver TX16S, but would be my next pick after the Zorro / TLite. Given the price point and size, it's a great travel and simulator radio. It is surprisingly comfortably to use, and I'll certainly be recommending it to beginners.
This one looks really cool with like the see through design so u could the electronics a bit, really stands out from the other controllers with are just boring like the dji which is just blank grey
I am wanting to get into ELRS on a budget. I currently have a Flysky i6 and was originally considering upgrading the firmware to OpenTX and modding it to put an ELRS module in it. However, that would cost as much as just buying this radio. I know the modules could get power outputs of 1W and this can only do 250mw. But couldnt I get another ELRS module in the future when I have the money to upgrade and THEN be able to get my full 1W power? What would you do?
I really agree with u that smaller radios are better than bigger ones, the big ones will just make ur arms or neck sore from holding it for too long or letting it hang on ur neck for too long, yes some of em do look really cool with like carbon in all sorts of colors but why cant we have that on the smaller ones?
I had been considering getting the RadioMaster Boxer as my entrypoint to ELRS radios, but now I need to consider whether this might be a better fit. I still have quite a lot of old DSM2 and DSMX aircraft, and it would be a bonus to be able to fly all of these with the same radio, so I was thinking that I want ELRS built-in, but with a multi-protocol option. Is it convenient to switch between internal and external modules on these newer radios, or is it just easier to keep an old radio for flying old aircraft?
It's easy to switch. Just setup a separate model for the external protocol and when you switch models, it will power up the external module. VERY EASY.
@@AlbertKimTV Does the same multi-protocol module work with both the boxer and pocket? Could you point me at one that would support DSMX protocol and work with these radios?
We have a clear winner here (no pun intended). It'll be interesting to see a follow up video, with a check on how good the range is. Obviously this is not intended to be a long range radio out of the box, but I'd like to see how it holds with a lot of trees, interference and such over an FPV course.
As a beginner, I've been looking at the Tx12 MK II (ELRS) for FPV drones before the new Pocket came out. Which one might be better, or can you do a comparison between it as well as the Boxer?
In a nutshell, the Pocket and TX12 uses the smaller gimbals and the Boxer uses the regular full sized gimbals. The pocket is the smallest, then the TX12 , then the Boxer. As they get bigger, they are also heavier. There's no way to know which one is right for you until you try them to see which one you like better. This is going to be very subjective. There are a lot of other factors to consider but since you said you're a beginner, a lot of those won't mean much to you. If you're getting your first radio, the pocket is a good place to start and if you don't like it, you're only out $65.
I love my tx12, but if the boxer had been out, I would have gotten that instead. Personally, I would not use the pocket because of the rocker switches. I prefer "normal" switches.
What Albert said, radios / controllers are like sunglasses you have to try them to see if it works for you. I started with the TX12, and loved it until I started doing more freestyle flying. I pinch my sticks, and noticed that on the TX12 my index finger would hit the switches on top of the gimbals and that would make me yaw slightly. Now I run a TX16s ( big heavy boy ) it is heavier but I love the gimbal and radio feel. I am thinking of the Pocket as my travel radio but similar to others I am not loving the buttons ( wish it has switches ). The Pocket with a price of $65 is hard to beat for a nice ELRS radio. Happy Flying!!!
This would be really handy for my tinyhawk if i just wanna go flying in the park so i dont have to grab my bag for the big chonky remote i have rn i could just put this in my pockets step on my bike and go!
Depends on which specific model. I have reviewed many of them and if you go to my airplane playlist, I talk about how to fly with a multi-protocol module in many of the videos... here's just one example... ruclips.net/video/4Bszr2gScto/видео.html
Hiya, I've ordered one with ELRS built in, what version does it come shipped with? Think it's above 2.6, like 3.0 or above. Cheers, I'll update my Rx to suit.
really really wished it was big enough to have the ag01 mini gimbals man. I was looking for a small controller and wanted to make a custom case for the t-lite with ag01 mini gimbals and I was legit imagining a radio like this.
What do you think what will be tha max range. I plan to buy small long range fpv and go to the mountains. I need my backpack to be small that is why i want small radio. So i wonder what is going to be the max ELRS link range
For 250mW it's something like 40+km under the ideal circumstances. Your RF environment will determine your actual max range. You can see what other people did here... www.expresslrs.org/info/long-range/
@@AlbertKimTV i am a little bit lost. I want to buy long range fpv but i want to shoot freeride ski and snowboard at the mountains. So i wonder if there is fpv which can do both. Can you recomend me?
Hi Albert, i just received my pocket, really nice , however the spring tension doesn't feel linear, and even after loosening them they still not linear and give greater resistance near the ends, i like my sticks linear loose and floaty without any play in middle, my stock tx12 is perfect with adjustment on loose and on my tx16s i had to put the lighter ones..i tried springs from my jumper t-light but were slightly wide and still didn't feel right, i am scared of using the pocket and mess up my muscle memory, please help, what springs to buy.
@@AlbertKimTV I wanted to create models in EdgeTX companion and upload to pocket. However in Edgetx companion when trying to setup radio profile , the radio type dropdown does not have pocket. Is is ok that I select RM Zorro ?
Hey my dude... Im new to this.. But would this bind to my eachine qx 65.. It has a spektrum board running dsmx or dsm2 protocol.. I would realy like to add this radio to my new set up.. Thanks my freind
Yes, you can with the 4-in-1 version or you can add an external multiprotocol module like the one in this video... ruclips.net/video/HHwK4xYm7pk/видео.html
@@AlbertKimTV thank you for rapid response.. That would work out to costly for both.. Would you no of a cheaper option? Nothing fancy just something to get qx in the air.. Many thx my freind
I would guess so. There is a USB C ontop for the flashing of the module I think. Or is that for the internal firmware for the controller? And you just flash the firmware you want. Some have had their USB inside. You figure it out
I don't have engineering specs on the modules but I do know they have been different shapes in each new model. I have not seen them use the same module in multiple radios before. Perhaps if you can find a small enough module that will fit inside, you might be able to wire it up but I don't have time for this kind of experiment. I would ask radiomaster directly about this kind of engineering question as they would be better qualified to answer than me.
These are hall sensor gimbals and had no jitter. Small gimbals for sure, but still good quality especially for the price. I don't feel like there is a need to upgrade these gimbals right away. It may last a long time, I will update people later if they fail but these feel very good to me. Your assumption based on no experience with this radio is pretty worthless IMO.
@AlbertKimTV most of the time they use plastic gimbals for cost. Happy to hear the Hall gimbals are of good quality. I am the opposite and like the big radio style. But my nephew would like this style being a gamer.
I trust Albert's opinion here. Just because they are plastic doesn't mean they are low quality. I think the AG01 metal gimbals cost more than the radio and honestly not worth it for me.

Albert is right. I got suckered into the big radio dogma too. Didn't know how much I hated big radios until I got the T-Lite.
big radios are useless and expensive

Wow, the price is amazingly low. Well done Radiomaster!

Why is that antenna so large? 2.4ghz should be a lot smaller. Seems like unnecessary extra weight.
I mentioned that in the video too... seems unecessary.
Perhaps a smaller version will be available later.
My guess is it's meant to be used as a handle or stand, since the radio doesn't have a dedicated one.

Hi!! can i switch the frequency for 868 ( using Crossfire module )?
There's a nano module connector on the back.
Can jou change the momertary switch to the right side ?
Not unless you make a new case for the back since the right side is a rotary dial.
Why is it so hard to find a nano multi-protocol module? That IRX4 is hard to find.

@@AlbertKimTV Thanks, do you know if it actually works w/ the Radiomaster Pocket? I got the XJT and it doesn't work with anything!
Which one is better pocket and tx12 ? 😮
Hey my dude... Im new to this.. But would this bind to my eachine qx 65.. It has a spektrum board running dsmx or dsm2 protocol.. I would realy like to add this radio to my new set up.. Thanks my freind
Yes, you can with the 4-in-1 version or you can add an external multiprotocol module like the one in this video... ruclips.net/video/HHwK4xYm7pk/видео.html
@@AlbertKimTV thank you for rapid response.. That would work out to costly for both.. Would you no of a cheaper option? Nothing fancy just something to get qx in the air.. Many thx my freind
Helo albert,i just got my cc2500 version and i canot bind my mobula6,8 flysky reciver,im new to the hobby,can u help me pls?
Unfortunately not possible to bind with the CC2500 version. You need a full 4-in-1 multiprotocol module to bind to flysky receivers.
@@AlbertKimTV oh no,i was suspect that,ty so much albert
Last thing albert,can u tell me what exact 4 in 1 module i need to buy pls?i dont want to make another mistak 😊
This might be okay for a backup radio, but I believe I'll be sticking with my Boxer as my daily driver. Good review!
Just my opinion, but the Boxer was too big, bulky and heavy so I returned it.
where did you get the purple zorro max?
What's the range on this?
Looks like it's up to 43 KM. www.expresslrs.org/info/long-range/?h=range#rules
@@AlbertKimTV 💪thank you
Is there a way to unlock 250mw on the EU LBT version that ships limited to 100mw?
I would guess so. There is a USB C ontop for the flashing of the module I think. Or is that for the internal firmware for the controller? And you just flash the firmware you want. Some have had their USB inside.
You figure it out
Contact Radiomaster support
Can i take the internal elrs module from a boxer and put it into this radio?
probably not since the geometry inside is different for each. why not ask radiomaster tech support? albert probably doesn't know
@@xavierprimeto1752 well this is a rc hobby channel that does a lot of mods, so let’s see if albert responds?
I don't have engineering specs on the modules but I do know they have been different shapes in each new model. I have not seen them use the same module in multiple radios before. Perhaps if you can find a small enough module that will fit inside, you might be able to wire it up but I don't have time for this kind of experiment. I would ask radiomaster directly about this kind of engineering question as they would be better qualified to answer than me.
This radio has a version with internal ELRS.
@@frankcastillo8869 yes we know that but it’s only 250mw.
Put the screen brightness on the dial
ok
huhuh i just buy tx12 v2 elrs i this this is good in term compactness
definitely smaller and lighter than the tx12
is this controller muti protocol
Technically YES, but it only has one of the 3 chipsets found in other multi-modules so less protocols overall.
Budget radio usually means budget gimbals. Upgrade as soon as possible if needed.
These are hall sensor gimbals and had no jitter. Small gimbals for sure, but still good quality especially for the price. I don't feel like there is a need to upgrade these gimbals right away. It may last a long time, I will update people later if they fail but these feel very good to me. Your assumption based on no experience with this radio is pretty worthless IMO.
@AlbertKimTV most of the time they use plastic gimbals for cost. Happy to hear the Hall gimbals are of good quality. I am the opposite and like the big radio style. But my nephew would like this style being a gamer.
I trust Albert's opinion here. Just because they are plastic doesn't mean they are low quality. I think the AG01 metal gimbals cost more than the radio and honestly not worth it for me.
arent ALL radios portable? thats kinda the thing with them.
Smaller means MORE portable.
Are you a pincher or thumber ?
Hmmm, I talked about that in the video...
What kind of range can you get out of it ? I wanna do a little long range with my flying wing but wanna keep my kit small for traveling
