So what did I win
LoL
Off topic- you purchase all RC items off bangood?
I know it soo obvious 😂 lol , thanks anyway.
Dang! Thought I was a winner…LOL. 🤩
The intro with the letters sparkles was amazing!
Oh man what a cool drone. Kinda disappointed you didn't get a proper big 6s on it. But hey it still makes me want one!
Keep up the good work love the videos u dnt claim to be the best of the best much appreciated👏
Are u serious????? No way
Contact were? Lol im READY. Plus i want some of those tasty stickers lol
@@burdfamfpv I think someone is trying to scam us. It's on every comment
I just noticed that, wat a day lol danmmmmitttt
awsome review sir.
Wow amazing drone dude, the price its the only bad thing 😄
super sic
What dji air unit antennas you recommend for longer range? Cuz as I can see there are dual long albatross (15cm) on it, right? I already have crystal HD on my V2 goggles, but im curious lf upgrading air unit antennas, if there are better ones 🙂. Also on what mw you get 4km range, 700?
The higher the mw, the farther the video signal range. In Canada we are restricted on range so I don't buy gear for long distance. Changing antennas definitely makes a difference in range.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 i know, in EU we are limited on 25mw and LOS (officially). I asked about antennas because you mentioned them in video and I thought there are any better ones. Also, these antennas on Chimera looks longer then 15cm or am I wrong and it only looks longer? 😀
@@janezhitori6203 My Chimera is currently loaned out so I can't measure the antenna, but yes, it is long.
Have you flown iflight Titan 7 HD? @captaindrone
I have not flown such an FPV drone
This drone with ELRS is absolutely perfect for me. I appreciate you showing all the different camera weight. It looked super smooth in every flight.
Thanks Captain
Strangely while marketed as a pro long range build, the BNF comes with a tiny 2.4ghz antenna which is pretty dangerous for practical long range. Typically you'd like a 868/915mhz diversity setup.
Agree, being a radio guy myself I would much prefer the 800-900 MHz system.
Is the iflight chimera 7 HD PRO faster than the dji fpv drone?, what do you like the most?
What could be happening with the green light is that the battery is drained so low that it thinks it's a charged 4 or 5s. I've had my Chimera 7 do that before.
Wow...amazing FPV iFlight Cinema 7 HD Pro
I wish some of these company's came out with inav versions for these long range setups. Of course you need a compass on it as well but I think inav is just a more dependable firmware for lr. The rth functions seem to just work better
There's a build log on the ArduPilot forums for a full autopilot with this setup.
I think the Rekon 7 comes with inav.
Wish it was waterproof then I would buy it. André
I finally saw something that I wanted too!
iFlight's new Aircraft is a blast.
I always liked their Cinewhoop- Bumblebee and now here is my another favourite, DeadCat FPV drone!
It looks really beautiful because it is enormous and the bigger the drone is, the more beautiful is it.
Really impressive to see a 7" FPV drone as it can carry 300+ grams on it and is really powerful!
The powerful 1,800 mAh battery was massive and gave 7 minutes of flight time which was not bad at all!
I think what will it do with an epic 5,000+ mAh Battery!
The even better thing is that it can easily handle the mass of DJI Action 2, Insta360 one RS and GoPro 10 combined!
It is exceptionally large, may it be its propellers, motors or body.
It is expensive?
Not at all.
Such a huge and beautiful RTF FPV Drone costs less then 2,000 USD which is pretty affordable!
{Those who think that it is costly should take a look at these prices of Cinematic/Inspection/Agricultural Camera Drones even though some of them are not in the consumer market, like the future DJI Inspire 3 (15,000+ USD), DJI Matrice M30T (10,000+ USD), DJI Agras (20,000+ USD) or the legendary Elios 2 (a whopping 40,000+ USD) and the 10 CM long, 18 Grams of mass of Black Hornet Nano UAV which flies at 18 kph and range is 2 KM (1,90,000+ USD)}
Overall, iFlight Chimera 7 HD Pro definitely a really good Profesional FPV Drone for sure that flies very nicely!!!
And, also Congratulations for 250K subs Steve!

CAPTAIN, Would be the better for long distance? REKON 7, ir CHIMERA? Thanks
This is what massive looks like by the way 👇👇👇
I've "won" several times... / Battery mounted below gives a cheaper CG 😋
You are correct sir! My wife wouldn’t be happy if I chewed up the walls🤪 🙆🏻♂️
Captain drone. Which drone is the best for 4k cinematics 450-800-1000-1500$ or cheaper. It could be even a dyi solder it yourself drone. I'm tired of seeing DJI this DJI that. Aren't there competition in that field? I remember building dyi drones back then with naja or naza system? Can't recall from hobby wing it would cost pennies per performance
The drone in this video is in the FPV hobby, and FPV drones are now used in Hollywood action movies due to the ability to fly fast, low and through objects. If you want a camera drone, then for the price range you mentioned, the best ones would be from Autel and DJI.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 tyvm sir
steve i dont know if you know this but if you render your video using vlc for some reason all of the osd info will ne i n the video... its so weird. try it.
WOah!! This drone is super cool!@@!! You are an amazing reviewer and instructor! Please elucidate on your battery choices.
So, this one over a DJI Mavic, your personal choice? Please consider posting a video/helpful tips/review on FPV goggles for us new flyers. Thank you for the review, Captain Drone!
Nice job. Are you ready to review a GPS drone flying on water? Cheers 🍻
Very impressive FPV drone. Thanks for the review. 🧑✈️👍
Rabbitfilms X Chimera7 Pro is the same? is 7.5 inch or 7 inch ??
What a beast! Equivalent to a 700 trex helicopter! That is definitely not a beginner copter. When I started flying in 2010 I would run that ting straight into the ground.
this or DJI HD1-XR? can you do a comparison video?
Saya mau drone nya om , mungkin om berkenan hati memberu saya drone , saya ingin tapi tidak punya uang 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have the 1st version Digital Chimera 7 and its a amazing drone that can also acro like crazy! Amazing how a big drone can be so aerobatic and fly like a 5 inch quad. Love love love my Chimera7
It is a beast! I would try it but only in the Grand Canyon or Death Valley 🏜 away from people! It is so cool when you fly it though!
@@marcoreviews awayfrom people lmao. I blow through gas station canopy's while getting gas at 110mph doing barrel rolls and people love it. U need to wake up against woke libtard agenda bullshit.
Dude isn't anything you present here amazing ? Oh yes it is cause otherwise you won't make any $$$ influencing poor buyers to get another thing they don't need !
I choose all the products I review which is why I am an influencer. If you stay in school and do well, then one day you to can be a RUclips influencer
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 lol ok boomer
Chimera pronounced with a K i.e. Kimerera - Maybe :-)
It's pronounced Kai-mera btw. Nice video!
Wow! So timely, I'm seriously eying the Rekon 7 and then this review appears! I agree this it not a beginner drone - dangerous to market it as such.
Steve! Ive been flying my avata for a month now and just saw this! Ive never dealt with anything but autel and dji batterys. What type of battery is the safest and best for a drone like this and how do you charge them?
In the RC hobby of: RC Cars, RC Trucks, RC Tanks, RC Boats, RC Helicopters, RC Planes and FPV Drones, they all use LIPO batteries and they all use RC Hobby battery chargers. Watch any of my battery charger videos and everything will make sense.
Recently discovered your channel and I really appreciate all your knowledge and interest in so many gadgets and tech! Question: I'm interested in getting into FPV droness as a new hobbiest and am wondering with a budget of $300, the TinyHawk 3 RTF kit is still the ideal product with a good controller for simulations?
Yes, for beginners, any of the RTF FPV kits are great. The reason I say that is because the FPV hobby is one of those hobbys where the learning curves are very steep. So getting a kit where everything works together means you are half way there. Next you have to learn how to fly without training wheels. If you have flown a GPS camera drone, those have training wheels. Flying FPV means plenty of crashing before you get good enough not to crash so whatever kit you get, there is a good chance you may destroy the drone in your attempt to learn how to fly, so always fly outdoors in an open field with plenty of soft grass. If you wish to learn more about the FPV hobby, just watch my video series entitled CAPTAIN DRONE FPV FOR BEGINNERS on RUclips.
Chimera is pronounced Kai MER ah. Just FYI.
Closest thing i have is a 2000mah 6s. Lol geez that thing is huge!
Hey there, dude!
Your reviews are straight fire, always bringing those good vibes! Massive thanks for dropping all that knowledge. I've been deep in the drone review game, but your content sealed the deal for me. I just had to pull the trigger on that drone you recommended.
Quick question, though: any way to get a heads-up if there's some other bird cruising nearby, you know, like DJI FPV style?
Cheers, and keep rocking those reviews!
Not that I'm aware of. You'd have to install some device that tracks civil aviation and then hook it into your telemetry.
This was a great video. I don't think I would ever get into FPV drones. But really enjoyed the flight. Thanks for taking us along. Congratulations on 250K subscribers !!!👍
Thank you!
Whats the maximum control distance on one of these? Looks awesome
The video mentions the out of the box distance. It is up to you to modify it for a longer distance.
I've been waiting for an REKON 7 vs. Chimera 7
The Chimera 7 Pro is way more of an all purpose beast than the Rekon 7.
Wow thats seriously dangerous - Imagine that kg of drone falling on your head because its out of power. Surely that cannot be legal to fly without some arroooga type warnings or auto return on low batt. The Cap is very experienced and it caught even him out!
Drones pinwheel down, even with an exploded prop they fall at no more than 25mph. As energy scales with the square of the velocity a no power drone of a 1.5 kg at 25mph (93 J) has much less energy than a .25kg drone at 75mph (140 J). You should never intend to fly over people and be very wary of crowds of more than a dog walker in public setting.
I dont fly over people ever, rarely over other peoples property and fly everything from 249g to 6KG drones and airplanes. It is never dangerous.
This has long been my most favourite frame for DJI and long range, the frame is what I like to call a fluke frame that requires very little filtering as the arms are perfect and thick and the chassis (WELL EVERYTHING ABOUT IT) it is by far the best out of all the 7" frames out there.
I use 6S Molicell and flight time is around 20 mins at high speed. Fantastic Frame
How did they manage to make home pointing arrow in OSD, because DJI does not have that element in Betaflight and canvas mode doesnt work for DJI?
Home point in OSD exists in pretty much all FPV drones with GPS rescue (Digital and Analog). Are you using an old drone perhaps or have old firmware? All of the settings are in BETAFLIGHT.
Captain just came across a video you did in 2019 it was called low cost drones that you recommend can you do another updated version I am trying to get into flying drones but I don’t wanna spend a lot of money but of course like everyone else I want to get a big bang for my buck can you please help me thank you so much and I enjoy all your videos
A newer video was done in November 2021.
I bought and returned several nazgul 5's that were supposed to work with the dji goggles and controller that did Not per iflight in the end. What's changed?
You are the first to have such an issue which leeds me to believe you:
1. Did not know how to switch your goggles to FPV mode from DJI mode.
2. You did not know you had to have the same firmware on both the goggles and drone digital unit.
I have a tango 2 and dji fpv goggles will this work with this drone?
TANGO 2 means CROSS FIRE receiver. So you would have to order the HD DIGITAL version of this drone with a CROSSFIRE receiver in it.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I was thinking of getting this one or the lumenier Johnny fpv 5 inch one which is similar but smaller. I haven't heard many reviews about the johnnyfpv pre-built one
Hi captain I'm your one of subscriber thanks to your lot of videos about drone. I learnd a lot about drone I'm little RUclipsrs
Thank you!
Have you ever used Apple tag on your Drone? With it you would find your drone when lost. 🇫🇮👍🇫🇮
Only works if you (or someone else with an iPhone) happen to walk within range of it when it is lost
I'm waiting for the 1S Version 😆
Amazing drone😍 everything with leather straps i like😉
I wanna see that race now
Any idea whether iFLight will provide the 3D models to print the casings for the drone? 😕
No idea.
Long shot.. Anyone got the stock pids for this, i managed to reset them.. Thanks for the review
About 80% of newbies to the FPV hobby that come from the Camera drone hobby do this. All the manufactures know this so they readily have the DUMP files available. Just contact IFLIGHT for one or it may be listed as a download, then you install it via the CLI tab in betaflight configurator.
love it top flying friend i am in the uk
Hi I'm new to fpv.. wich DJI controller is good for this drone.
If you are NEW and LOST and you like DJI and you want to fly PRO FPV then you need to watch this video to the and take notes before you buy anything. ruclips.net/video/zPf9b-X6cFw/видео.htmlsi=Wo-uund_GoTWyEZo
Naahhhh ini baru luar biasa Om Captain Drone...... Selalu Mantap
This is an amazing quad. Look's very nice. Thank you Captain!

Hi, what do you think of this one compared to the 7" croc you reviewed about a year ago?
This one is more refined
I enjoy your vids very much. I like the natural and non-pretentious style.
Please stay away from the birds. The Geese were freaked out by the drone, they tried to get away from it, you were too close to them. Don't give the Karens or FAA any ammo on film.
I have the GEPRC Croc 7 HD with Li-ION batts I made, I get 30 mins flight time.
Hey buddy, I've binged this video a few times already... Chimera7pro v2 is finally in the house, just waiting for the crappy weather to bounce. But man, I can't help but wonder about the drone's well-being with that hardcore landing @14:55. I'm head over heels for this bird, and the thouhgt of accidentally smacking it while tucking it back into its OG box.. 😅 Seeing it touch down kinda hurts my FPV soul.
So here's the deal - any chance we can finesse a landing in Angle mode? You know, easy does it, smooth and slow.
'Cause I'm frequetly tearing up the skies in muddy or snowy mountain conditions, and I'm sweating bullets about sticking the landing in Acro mode. Hit me up with some advice, bro!
Ha ha… FPV drones are solid (carbon fiber) and you can smack them around as much as you like. If you are new at landing FPV drones, just fly with the camera facing forward vice at a 45 degree up. Makes landing super easy.
So here's the deal - I'm often tearing up the skies in some seriously muddy situations, and soon, I'll be taking on snowy terrain too. Now, I can maybe live with the whole rough landing scenario (my main worry is trashing the insides), but the real issue is I can't pull off a landing in mud or slush like that... :(
Back in the DJI FPV days, I'd smoothly switch from M mode to N mode during the landing, gently touch down, snag it mid-air, and kill the motors on the second go. If I could pull off the same move with this drone, it'd be downright perfect. Any tips on making that happen?
Cheers! @@CAPTAINDRONE798
Too bad there isn't a frame only version where you can build with your own electronics
You could try ROTOR RIOT
And I really love that racing drone that you have looking into buying one
Thank you for this great video Captain! 😃
I have the Standard Chimera 7 and ordered some 7.5'' HQ Props as the arm length of the pro doesn't have changed and I'm curious if I could gain some efficiency.
There are several reports that the Pro version is less efficient with the bigger motors, up to 30% less flight time with the same Lipos. 🤔
Yeah you have to run bigger batteries. But on 7" I'm already running 8000mah li-ion. I ended up turning my 7" rekon to 8" trying to get longer flights. But i can't get tune good I was thinking grabbing this chimera pro 🤔
Just noticed it's 7.5" props didn't even realize it. Oh wow. I'm running 8" on rekon7 a lil funkily. Damn might get the chimera 7 pro even though I have a 7" already haha
Damn 1.6w analog or dji version. I do like being able to just record on board no camera. But the analog might have longer range
How does this one compare to the recently released Crocodile 75 v3?
I don't think you could go wrong with either
How do connect your goggle with gopro cam? I dont see any cable connect between drone to gopro
You don't connect GOGGLES and a GOPRO.
Why is it using triblades if biblades are more efficient? thanks in advance.
FPV Drones use triblades because the motors on FPV drones are the most powerful for their size. A tri-blade allows an FPV drone to corner and do flips and rolls very easily. Bi-blades are good for going straight. So if your plan is to flight straight at a relatively constant speed, then biblades would be more economical on battery power.
So what is better Crossfire or ELRS solution ? What type of antennas you can recommend to put on the goggles to increase the range ?
ELRS is the preferred only because it is open source so it is cheaper. However I think crossfire will be around for a very long time.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I just realize that both solutions are analog, and only for controller, but the distance to DJI Googles will be far more limited. Any chance to increase the distance between drone and goggles to fit these long solutions mentioned above ?
Lindo drone fpv, meu sonho ter um desse acho interessante poder modificar o drone🥰👏🏼
I am a newbee. What is the difference between analog and digital in this drone??
Please watch EPISODE 1 of my series called CAPTAIN DRONE FPV FOR BEGINNERS, and you'll have your answer
Any chance you can fly and review Freefly ALTA or ASTRO Drones? I know those are on the pricey end but those are beasts !!!
360 camera view is great.
Nice drone. Owning a Mini 3 Pro this is super advanced but I dont understand the difference since Mini 3 Pro goes 3-4 miles. Only camera, weight, and battery life can be a large upgrade imo. Is speed only an issue if the pilot wants to simply go faster?
There are two drone hobbies. The hobby the mini 3 pro is in is called the beginner GPS Camera drone hobby. The other drone hobby is the Advanced FPV Drone hobby, like the drone in this video. It is not designed for beginners and takes about a month of training to fly one well. There is no range or speed limit in the FPV Drone hobby.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 ok so this is more pilot based hobby and Mini Pro is mostly for shooting cinematic shots. How fast are FPV's going?
@@mentlincit depends on the motors, many go over 100 MPH
Hey Capi if you have a USBC cord and a battery power bank plug it directly into the FC before your setup , by the time you plug in your goggles , turn on radio , then take the usbc cord plug a battery to your quad you should get satellites quickly. I've been using this method to get satellites quickly. They seems to get locked quicker with out anything plugged in or VTX connected
Oooo, I have a big field.
your comment really hit home that they hit hard. I have the Iflight Xl7 and took off into my face. 30 stitches later im good. but you are not wrong they will mess up alot of things
Yikes! Sounds painful
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 was completely my own fault, lets just say when they tell you to take props off when flashing ESC they mean it.
30% less flight time than the "old" model. 70g heavier, bigger oversized motors. There are better quads out there for a reasonable price at this size.
Man you are costing me a load of money lol here comes another purchase
Enjoy! This is a good one.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 they are in back order.
This maybe a stupid question but being it has a auto hover since it uses some DJI parts. Also what software to use to tune this thing if necessary. Last time I tuned a drone was my kit drone on Libre years ago. I’m getting older and factory setups are fine for me. I’ve purchased so many things you’ve reviewed that caught my interest, keep up the great videos.
My only issue I’m currently experiencing is with both my DJI FPVs and the extra batteries from the fly more kits are duds-unrelated I know but figured I’d mention which seems to be a problem. I have 6 bad batteries that will charge and firmware fine but won’t arm the motors on either of my 2 DJI FPVs because of bad battery communication.
If you’re ever in MT I’d love to fly with you. Keep up the great content.
@@ChrisNieves This is an FPV drone, hence no such thing as a beginner auto hover. The DJI FPV drone is a different beast as it is part beginner drone (you know like all the camera drones on the market) and part advanced drone like drones in the FPV hobby. Only when the DJI drone is in manual mode is it a true FPV drone. All FPV drones on the planet are for people who know how to fly and use a hobby battery charger which is why it is the advanced hobby. If you are not an FPV drone pilot than this is not the drone for you.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you, I have some experience flying FPV as my original 250 kit from 2015 is still my crash dummy. I was only asking because it does have GPS features and also some DJI components if there were DJI features in the factory software, but I understand.
Thank you :)
Hi Captain,
great video , I’m in the Uk . If I bought the package identical to yours on your review , Would it switch to EC mode and not get the 4 km as you your getting . Also if I used ELRS is the transmission signal weaker then what you get in Canada .
It’s just that I got a mini 3 pro and was disappointed when I only get 350 around my neighbourhood and 1400 m in countryside with no interference . I want more range , I’m wondering if this drone is for me , Since I love everything about it . Just the unknown signal strength due to EU rules is holding me back . Thanks
Since it is digital and connects to DJI FPV goggles, it is the goggles that will reduce your range as they know where you are. ELRS or Crossfire will give the longest communication range, separate from video.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 From watching your videos , I believe ELRS or crossfire is analogue right ? When u say apart from video . Could I have this drone controls in analogue and video streaming in digital ?
Sorry if I’m way of the mark , I’m in uk and it’s around 4am !
Really appreciate your reply .
I’d considered using drone hacks to increase my signal strength , I’m going to inquire wether they can do their magic on DJI goggles
@@oscarfellenburg711 ELRS and crossfire are not video so they do not fall under analog and digital. They are receivers and vert separate from the topic of digital and analog video.
Great video, really enjoyable to watch. Just wondering what its cruising and also top speeds are.
Hi. How many batteries can ne mounted simoutanesly?
One
Other than the need for huge chargers that have the wattage to do at least 1C charging of multiple 3000 to 5000 MaH Lipos, and the cost of those batteries, it's nice to see a quad that shrugs off any weight concerns ... full-size GoPros, big 360s or even cinema cameras are easily carried. ELRS is still a touch sketchy with respect to unexpected fail-safes... Crossfire for me. Is it a beginner drone? No way... this thing will probably hit 110 mph and would do massive damage if it hits anything. 10-minute + flights with a 3000 battery is very attractive and oh, that speed... it really rips.
Thấy con đó sao mà chịu nổi thèm quá bạn ơi
Love the hat captain! Only Canadians will get it.
The CFL is pretty much a Canadian thing :-)
What kV motors it has?
DO you think its worth upgrading? I have the regular version
If you love the one you have then probably not.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 it's great
Just last week though the esc smoked for no reason
its so cool and exspensive id be scared to fly above water or anything like that
So you don't even need a laptop / Betaflight with this drone? Just googles dji remote?
If you have the BLACK DJI Remote, then all you do is bind it to the drone and go fly.
Steve ik that I do need to learn about betaflight but my laptop is destroyed ATM so I have no resources to use a computer for betaflight that's why I'm asking .
Sorry for any inconvenience
Definitely not cheap but seems like a great value since a person could start without going through a bunch of cheaper drones. Maybe a bit OP for true beginners but with a little restraint this would be awesome to start with and not have to accumulate a bunch of extra.
I'd like to get it just to see how bad I can chew up the walls in my house!
Not top! Draw more A and fly 20-30% less. Old chimera is more better for long range. New Pro/V2 is more for light freestyle/speed cruise and less for long range.
Wait a minute!! That's the biggest?? You have never flown a X Class yet??? You are missing out my friend. You must fly one! P.S. Put 2 of those 6s 1800 on there together. It will fly better and longer. And 7 inch and above quads are a nightmare to tune. That's why you do not see more of them used. The long arms create a resonance that is difficult to tune out.
I have a lr and freestyle Chimera7 and it's def my fav frame so far. I still rock a 5" MRM because it's the most solid frame I've ever had. Still can't break it.
Why're u trying to break it?
@@ishaangill8019 we aren't exactly careful and MRM isn't even in business anymore. I replaced the PDB with a spare top and drilled out new stack holes. We've broken lots of arms not too many bodies. Got a CL1 that hasn't broken yet either but only 2 yrs old
Hurry up Christmas
Pretty awesome indeed Steve👍 i'd be curious to see how well it would fly with a big 4s 5000 mah battery🤔 we'll have to try that next time you take her out🙂
I got 6.5 min on a 6s 5000mah lipo landing at 3.8v per cell
@@robertfpv7733 thanks for the reply Robert. You can surely fly even longer than that since 3.8 is still a high cutoff... I set my betaflight alarm at 3.5 on my quads and land at 3.4 (under load). Usually translates to around 3.6 or 3.7 when you unplug which is more than fine for 2s batteries and up.👍
Cool video.. amazing drone ..could make some great videos with the 360 on it too.
Good job. I hope it came with HDzero 1W instead of DJI.
