I still haven’t purchased the Mobula 7 that I was supposed to buy this week and saw this thumbnail in time. Will wait for this video and then make a call.
@@bjalmoite while i was looking at this i also came across sub250 whoopfly16. i am looking for something compact to practice indoor and also help me learn the basics of drone flying.
@@stevefpv not agree with 1s. I use mobula8 with 2s indoor. I also tried use 1s with this and it was sooooo boooooooooring. 2s is fast and fun and easy
I've been flying a 2s, 2-inch platform since 2018; the model I fly was discontinued a couple of years ago, so what I got today is a Frankenwhoop drivetrain cobbled up from the 4 whoops I went through, plus some upgrades to the video system. I've kept its Betaflight up to date, and on 4.4 with the Rosser/ctsnooze mod to Angle mode the thing's an indoor beast. I'm happy to see a possible new acquisition. I've flown Happymodel kit before, and found it to be good stuff. This one looks like it could fit my way of flying just as well as my daily driver.
Wow Mobula 8 looks like a super fun outdoor whoop. Something to learn new tricks on with less worries. Great review and PSA regarding larger batteries that can over stress / tweak the frame and cause fly aways 😬. Great flying and review Albert!! 👍
I love mine! it's taken a beating too. The first time I crashed it was on concrete and slightly cracked the camera lens, but not bad enough to effect anything. I now run it with a small bar of blu-tac just above the camera.
100% concur, 2S 2 inch whoops and open prop rock . Especially good for backyards and playgrounds. Do you know what those extra holes in the frame are for? Happy flying everyone. 🤓
I have a question, flying a Mob 8 analog ERLS version, using a Radiomaster TX16s, with a Happy Model ES24TX module I can go maybe 100 yards before I lose video/connection with the drone. I am using the stock antenna for the module and the drone. Would you mind sharing your radio and drone settings cause if I go around a house or small building or behind some trees I no longer can see the video and or control the drone, thanks.
bet this would give the betafpv 85pro2 a run for its money! possibly do a comparison film between the 2 if you still have the 85pro2? great review as always albert!
Hey Albert is this basically the baseline but in a whoop frame? Just got a Bassline Walksnail and was curious if I could swap it into the Mobula8 frame
Think imma see what's up with that. Got mad spare motors from a broken tinyhawk and phantom. And 2 inch biblades cuz I thought i was gonna build a micro but I went macro actually with a spec 7. Dont worry there was a tanq in between there too.. he's fine and waterproof now.. maybe. Time will tell, not my bath.
There is a wiring diagram for the FC at this link, but there are THREE versions of this FC so you need to make sure as to which one you own... rb.gy/gl5rt
can the analog elrs version be updated to hd zero or walksnail. I have both HD 1s vtx and camera combos on hand. would like to save the extra money, and use what i have already. thanks for any info
I think they use slightly different flight controllers. The analog version has the Betaflight OSD chip while the digital versions do not. I didn't take all three apart to examine them under a microscope so this is just my guess.
This one comes in ELRS and PNP versions. So if you don't have an ELRS module, you'll need to add a receiver and get the PNP version. The 4-in-1 can work with Frsky and Flysky receivers. There's like 300 kinds so way too many to mention here.
Excellent review!!! I really like you reviews on micro quads. Your really highlight the best features of these tiny whoops. The battery info is very helpful. I was unaware "fly-a-ways" can occur due to vibrations. Nice footage.

@@sanketss84 definitely go with a 1s if your planning on indoor but tbh to get flying it comes down to budget and how fast you wanna learn
@@stevefpv thanks for sharing your thoughts.
@@Chillin-fpv will check it out. Thanks for sharing.

Ordered one, after all. My daily driver finally died. Looking forward to flying this thing.

I liked the image quality very much, so I was curious about all your antennas.❤
Just stock antennas
I love mine! it's taken a beating too. The first time I crashed it was on concrete and slightly cracked the camera lens, but not bad enough to effect anything. I now run it with a small bar of blu-tac just above the camera.

Not sure what the holes are for... weight savings? Maybe to mount something for a future model?

great review as always albert!
I guess it’s called the Meteor85 now, but yes!
Have you flown it with the ELRS v3 (Betaflight 4.4.2 from Happy Model)? Also any idea on flashing Bluejay to the ESC?
What goggles are you using ? And do you get a lot of breakup as in static in the goggles
Hey Albert is this basically the baseline but in a whoop frame? Just got a Bassline Walksnail and was curious if I could swap it into the Mobula8 frame
Thanks Albert for detail review... but I've something to ask: what minimum voltage to landing?
been looking at these and the betafpv meteor 85 not sure what one yet tho
Why did you leave the external foil on batteries? Now you make me anxious that I shouldn't have removed them
I got mobeetle6 and cinerace20..i love to fly tiny whoop..mobula7hd or 8 is my target soon..
Cool
Do you happen to know the aspect ratio of the camera? Is it always so fished-eye or is it my goggles? Thanks
I think it's 4:3.
This is basically the whoop version of bassline analog.
It's about time hm did right with motor hole oriented the way it should be.

hello Is it possible to solder the TBS RX yourself? Is there a pin map? Or better to buy already soldered?
There is a wiring diagram for the FC at this link, but there are THREE versions of this FC so you need to make sure as to which one you own... rb.gy/gl5rt
@@AlbertKimTV - thanks a lot, maybe better to buy RTF with crossfire.
Thanks! So what is the connector in the drone, xt60 or 30?
i wish someone would answer this too
Xt30
Clear as day an xt30
HM always chokes on battery mounting 😫
can the analog elrs version be updated to hd zero or walksnail. I have both HD 1s vtx and camera combos on hand. would like to save the extra money, and use what i have already. thanks for any info

Could you please send the link of the 450 mah battery
amzn.to/40ddOuL
perfect but with walksnail i think is better maybe i change it ;)
Cool. Would you please advise me few good tinywhoops that run with 1s battery and short explanation why within your opinion. Thanks!
The Meteor65 Pro is a good 1S whoop. I made a video about it here... ruclips.net/video/bPPm0Xatv14/видео.html
My mobular8.... has a hole running through the buzz pads is that ok?
Should be OK.
Hi Al. I am confused. Which one should choose if I use my Zorro 4in1 Tx?
This one comes in ELRS and PNP versions. So if you don't have an ELRS module, you'll need to add a receiver and get the PNP version. The 4-in-1 can work with Frsky and Flysky receivers. There's like 300 kinds so way too many to mention here.
@@AlbertKimTV Great! So i must buy the one without a Rx (Bangood)and use one of those Rx and Pnp? Or buy the one and select the Frsky Rx option?
Great video and apprecite your efforts. What is your opnion on the VTX and Range? i am planning to get one for Outdoor freestyle. Is this good enough?
Good enough for nearby flying. Not for long range though.
@@AlbertKimTV what about penetration through the house?
Excellent review!!! I really like you reviews on micro quads. Your really highlight the best features of these tiny whoops. The battery info is very helpful. I was unaware "fly-a-ways" can occur due to vibrations. Nice footage.
Fantastic flying and review, Albert! 😃
That quad looks like a lot of fun!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
HOW DID U PUT MOBULA 8 INTO BIND MODE?
www.expresslrs.org/quick-start/binding/?h=binding
Can Mobula8 fly witn one 1s battery?
No
Technically yes, but it would be really weak
