This channel is by far the best channel for learning this stuff. For people who are new to these types of drones, it is not only a little daunting but also can be frustrating and off-putting. The reason it can be off-putting is mainly down to other channels, forums and similar groups being hostile towards people who are just starting out. Here, newcomers are always considered in addition to more seasoned flyers. Thank you.
Just finished a Geprc Phantom frame build w/ iflight sauccx f4 16x16 aio stack today!!! I said to myself, this is how the Freestyle should have been. Can’t wait to see what emax does..... took a nap...... boom new quad. I freakn love emax.
New to the Drone world. Been a few months now and my first drone was the Zino pro. But I saw a guy freestyle flying a 5 inch and fell in love. He recommended me to start with this one and judging by this review and the comments, he didn't steer me wrong. Thanks guys, for the info. My tinyhawk comes tomorrow, and I can't wait. It was recommended that I do a simulator so I guess I'll try that before flying this one even tho I fly my zino all the time. FPV is a totally different beast from what I hear.
absolutely love my first gen freestyle, was my first quad after the mobula 7. Nearly cried when the FC bricked itself but a reflash had me flying again :)
I'm still waiting to see what emax builds with those 3.5" props they released recently. They actually leaked them when they put out their 1408 thrust numbers.
Great video, Drone Camps! Camera popped off my freeestyle 1 before first flight… sent to Emax for warranty…..they sent me back the TINYHAWK 2 brand new! Great video. First person I came to when I got this new quad.
Yay I like how you included the Insta360 Go in the review! Well for a second but still. 🤷♂️ Also wondering if you will eventually make a vid explaining how to mount the Insta360 Go on this quad.
WAIT WHAT!! was just about to snip off my stock VTX then you upload this. Emax heard oure screams! i wonder if they will offer an upgrade kit?! And i promised the misses to not buy anymore quads...... i need to hide in the garage next time youre bell icon rings XD thanks justin
You're welcome man. Yeah this one was like all the upgrades I wanted on the original one. Looks like they watched my upgrades video. ;) - My prayers have been answered. This is the tits! - JD.
@@dronecamps Aaaand purchased :) cant wait to fly it. already have all the parts layed out for the upgrade on v1 freestyle. Tiny Tank vtx, GPS (yes we need it) some tpu parts i printed. BEEPER!, Runcam nano 2, xm+ and foxeer lollipop 3... scavanged the parts from another project ^^ Freestyle - 3D Mode - was my goal XD
If it was between this and the eachine novice 3 which route would you go. I like the novice 3 as it's an all in one kit and ready to fly. Is there going to be a similar packaywith this tiny hawk?
@@ValFPV yeah i have already gone in a different direction..... the remote is what kills me with the TH kits... its horrible.... i would just get some eachine box goggles the betafpv lite radio2 and one of the tinyhawks... i would go race 2 or freestyle 2 myself if i were going this direction
@@ValFPV i have been doing a looooot of sim flying and i won a diatone five inch.... radiomaster TX16s should be here anyday now and skyzone 02x goggles..... going to convert some eachine 010s i have into fpv whoops as well.... parting a five inch 4s build little by little together
Great drone...can you show us how to solder Flysky rx instead Frsky? It would mean A lot really. That short insight of upgrade starting from 1:28, is it additional tweak of yours? Thx bruh
Had mine for two weeks now wires connected at the motor have no reinforcement and broke on both front motors from a gentle grass “landing” 2.5 mm of shrink tube isnt enough for that angel hair wire on them motors Emax. Highly recommend putting your own reinforcement their before you even fly it. And using three hole layout for the motor mounts doesnt allow you to swap in another motor easily either without drilling. But it flys great and i was very much enjoying it..
Tysm for the good review! Cuz most drones aren’t very good and don’t have reviews, so this helped me pick my first FPV drone! And turns out I’m good at flying drones! I’m also learning to fly acro mode! I will suggest this drone to everyone!
just bought this! I'm new to FPV...but not new to drones. i will eventually upgrade here and there, get an Insta 360. Also...could you eventually put the O3 air unit on it?
i just ordered a tinyhawk 3 rtf kit, and im rhinking of grabbing one of these once i have gotten the hang of it because ill be able to use the 1s batteries i brought for it. once i get the hang of this one ill think about upgrading my controller and goggles and get something like the crux35
Coool!!! i was looking around for the Freestyle, should i buy one? i have bought a second tinyhawk II weeks ago, because the first was litte chewed up from crashing ;) and i started to used it as spare parts. Acro is now so much fun, flips, rolls, gaps, knife edges. Then i saw your other vid about the Freeestyle Upgrade and i thought i could use the old vtx an run cam nano on the freestyle from the old Tinyhawk. but now, Take my money!!! now, i wait until we can buy it here in switzerland :D cant wait to take the next step! I would love to have a 5inch quad but the space to fly thoose is limited and the people complaining about the noise. And i live also near an small Airport, so this new Freestyle II would fit perfect :D
GET SOME!!!! This wudda been perfect with a recording vtx...after seeing ur Eachine LaL3 review i cant see buyin the FS2 over the LAL3 lol THFS2 looks amazing tho!!
Thanks... hadn't seen the LaL3. This looks fun... but different class of quad... and video isn't matching my favorite ($15) 3.5 g 800TVL AIO @ 25mw or the Emax 2in race that has the same cam and VTX I think so wondering about the difference.
great informative video as always. Ordered. Will this work with the Teranis X9 lite out of the box. I know you mentioned D16, but other emax quads have been D8 and not worked as standard?
Literally been flying my dji se mini and my friends recommended me to get a fpv drone, and i watched your videos and just purchased the tinyhawk 2! Cannot wait!! How can you store videos and stuff, is there like a slot for micro SD card or something? (Sorry i am a newbie)
did you unlock the VTX to get the 200 mL Watts they said it would show 200 milliwatts even if you said it in your goggles but wouldn't truly be unless it's unlocked
Grants Pass here!! Nice to see you also from or in Oregon at time of video Justin! New to FPV been flying non altitude hold freestyle LOS crazy drones for a few years but want to go full FPV. What radio do you recommend buddy and batteries? I just have fatshark scouts currently because my eyes are bad and farsighted...
From their site:Ham radio license required for use in North America. What about that? The link is for a 1S quad. Are you just using 2S or is it really a 2S quad?
Just watched your video brother awesome stuff. I have had numerous drones now (non fpv), I’m looking to get into FPV now and have been thinking about this quad. If I was to get this model what good goggles and controller would you advise ? I don’t mind spending a bit for good gear ? Thanks in advance man.
That thing looks pretty sweet! But why oh why the PH2.0 connectors? Easy enough mod though. That farm looks pretty cool, maybe you'll have to drag me out there one day.
@@dronecamps Hi mate, great video. Do you know if my radio and goggles from Tinyhawk 1 would be compatible with the THFS2? Could I change settings with the radio? Thanks!!
Dude, thanks for another awesome review. Watched it twice for the review + another couple of times to admire your friends indoor roof. What an amazing roof (awesome farm as well). Quick question. What kinda antennas on your Sky03 (I have the sky02), would you recommend for this quad?
can you set up Reversed Motor Direction on the Tiny Hawk Freestyle 2? i mean i know you can swap any 2 motor wires on each motor, and setting it up in betaflight, but i am waiting for my in the mail now. wanted to know if there is a way to do it software based as i relly dont wanna tinker with it out the box thx!!!
I just found your channel with 0 knowledge of FPV world, found it cause I just ordered this one as a Kit w. goggles etc.. I have about 60plus hours in the air with my DJIs (phantom 4 and a mavic air) ...But this looks to much fun to pass up...thank you for all the info you provide.
Could you possibly do a video about upgrading the antenna on this to a micro axii and also upgrading the battery connector to xt30? I'm sure I can attempt those myself but I am new to the hobby and a step by step would be nice.
For anyone who doesn't want to mess around with awkward bind buttons the cli command to enter bind mode for SPI receivers like on this freestyle 2 is bind_rx_spi
what polarity is this drone? i have one on the way as well as skyzone 030 coming, and would like to order some antenna ahead of time just want to make sure i get the right ones. looked like you had a lollipop and something else there?
Forget the drone, give me the house
No Drone and the house!

Yeah I got another OG one two months ago. Go figure.
I bout my second one flipping 5 days ago!
It's a simulation.

could i bind this with a spectrum transmitter?
Dome house is amazing. Please more vids about it.
Awesome video!
How do you record the analog video? Is that through the goggles?
Does this drone fly fast?
Yup. I did all your mods. No needs for the "II" . Thanks.
🏆🏆🏆🏆
What an excellent review. I will be watching more of your channel.
Thanks I to I !
That house is awesome
Great video, Drone Camps!
Camera popped off my freeestyle 1 before first flight… sent to Emax for warranty…..they sent me back the TINYHAWK 2 brand new!
Great video. First person I came to when I got this new quad.
Cool video, made me think it's the Oregon version of "Bardwell's house" :) Really liking the proximity flying and the range of this one!

Wow! Welcome to the wonderful hobby of FPV!!!
This looks really cool...is there a tiny freestyle that is compatible with the DJI digital FPV?
Yes, yes, yes....what we’ve all been waiting for. Thanks EMAX...more damage to my wallet 🤪
What are your thoughts about the tiny hawk 2 rtf combo?
just bought this! I'm new to FPV...but not new to drones. i will eventually upgrade here and there, get an Insta 360. Also...could you eventually put the O3 air unit on it?
Can it be flown with the EMAX transmitter and goggles that come bundled with the Tinyhawk II?
Yes it can.
i just ordered a tinyhawk 3 rtf kit, and im rhinking of grabbing one of these once i have gotten the hang of it because ill be able to use the 1s batteries i brought for it. once i get the hang of this one ill think about upgrading my controller and goggles and get something like the crux35
is it possible to connect your own goggles as well as controller to the drone? or do you NEED to use what was given?
Is there an upgrade to make that camera even usable. It looks like a vhs cam
This still till today , a nice little quad 🎉
I want to get some decent goggles to pair with it can I have some recommendations
Hi there. Does it work well with 650 mAh batteries? I've a plenty of them. Thanks in advance
i use 650 on mine
Are those lines when flying always visible in the headset
What camera upgrade would you recommend that doesn't have that distorted fisheye look?
Coool!!! i was looking around for the Freestyle, should i buy one? i have bought a second tinyhawk II weeks ago, because the first was litte chewed up from crashing ;) and i started to used it as spare parts.

I’d say go for it
Would you get that kinda range right out of the box or is it only because your have better stuff
Please show us what the Insta360 Go footage looks like on it. B.t.w. won't a small CP antenna be better?
Is the geprc phantom still your favorite toothpick quad? How does this guy stack up to the phantom?
Lightning rod on the roof? Is that correct? Nice little hawk.
Will this bind to the controller and the goggles from the Tinyhawk 2 RTF?
Spokane Man I want to know also
Would like to Know!!
Flown for years but never fpv, lookimg to enter the scene. Should I jump on a freestyle II? Or do you think a freestyle III will be released?
Freestyle ii is a great start. Plenty of room to grow
How far can the Tiny hawk 2 go?
Love you video’s
How would you say this one compares with the Mantis 85?
Is this drone a brushless one?
GET SOME!!!!
This wudda been perfect with a recording vtx...after seeing ur Eachine LaL3 review i cant see buyin the FS2 over the LAL3 lol

@@BlkInc1 I order the d8 lbt version from bangood and bind it with my taranis xlite. D16 is no problem to bind and you get telemetry with d16 mode.
Love your stuff man
Excellent review man I just ordered this!
Hope you enjoy it!
How is it performing?

Great review! 💯
Is that fpv using ur phone or independent, I so want to get into this. My most recent drone is dji mini 3 pro but different animals
justin got fs2 ultra quiet , neighbors happy , profile 2 is good enough tweeted it a little,, i can play at home

What song is this playing during flight?🔥
Does it flies better than the previous model??
Similar but with a smoother tune on this one. Plus the added Runcam Nano 2 camera and the 200mw vtx. Make it 300% better.
@@dronecamps Love this quad...one of my favorite quads of all time
Do this record footage?
No goggles do that.
Ok thanks so I guess the goggles that comes with this record and can you tell me a good goggles for this (budget)
If I put a same type of battery but 2S lipo would it give the quad a little punch?
This or the lal3?
This

Awesome BL. I would get the Skyzone 04L goggles here : bit.ly/3vJ8UVN and the Radio controller here : bit.ly/3g0z1RH
@ 11:55 the TV show in the background is really a distraction. Makes me hungry!
love this drone, i put a rush tank vtx in it, and a diff receiver being 8channel out of the box.. 9/10 for sure!
I hear it's hard to bind it I am on a low budget what's a good transmitter that will bind easy
This video is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Yw
That thing looks pretty sweet! But why oh why the PH2.0 connectors? Easy enough mod though. That farm looks pretty cool, maybe you'll have to drag me out there one day.
Yeah man. Good to talk to you today. We have to make that trip. You'll love Fpv there. Cows on the back side too. The place is fpv paradise.
Wanna buy this, but I'm kinda a noob. While this bind with Tyranis qx7 radio?
I'm completely new to FPV and my eyes are on this quad. How do you increase the signal like you did?
Left stick to the left and right stick up. Takes you in the menu. Change power in there.
@@dronecamps

Quick question. What kinda antennas on your Sky03 (I have the sky02), would you recommend for this quad?
Foxeer echo patch and lollipop 3
Nice flight, but is stock SPI rx ?
Yes
@@dronecamps wahou Nice range for spi rx😁

thx!!!
Will this bind directly to the FrSky Transmitter X9 Lite
Hard time deciding between this or geprc smart 35!! Newbie, to learn on. Already have nazgul 5 v2 6S on the shelf waiting lol
So how does this hold up to the tinyhawk 3?
I just found your channel with 0 knowledge of FPV world, found it cause I just ordered this one as a Kit w. goggles etc.. I have about 60plus hours in the air with my DJIs (phantom 4 and a mavic air) ...But this looks to much fun to pass up...thank you for all the info you provide.
Welcome aboard!
I'm a commercial drone pilot but know nothing about FPV can you recommend a decent set of goggles to go with this drone?
How does this compare to the babyhawk r pro 2.5 inch?
Could you possibly do a video about upgrading the antenna on this to a micro axii and also upgrading the battery connector to xt30? I'm sure I can attempt those myself but I am new to the hobby and a step by step would be nice.
Thanks for the vid! :D

Can it be used with a emax ezpilot receiver? Or control?
Hey DC, great video as always. What's the 1s performance on this?
What batteries everyone using with these? and what are best props?
Does it come with prop guards for us ultra slow older newbies to use indoors?
No prop guards come with it
i fly ahawk sport and og tiny hawk 2 on ur recomendation they fly mint lol i want this to fly nice like them
Great review as always, if I had to choose between the TinkHawk II Freestyle or the GEPRC Phantom, what would be the best choice?
Im beginner and how it works with taranis x9 lite? I should buy a transmitter or smth like that?
