I brought this drone from the BetaFPV site and right out of the box this drone only sung 3 start up notes. The camera worked but that's about it. I've contacted BETAFPV on their site where they brag about their great service but it's been a week with no reply from their website or email. BTW it was 3s 450 battery. I'm sure it's the $60 control board on this thing that is faulty. I hope BETAFPV sees the post and I want to warn others watch out for BETAFPV service. I don't have the skills to replace the board so I'm stuck. Sorry to vent on your channel as I'm sure it's a great drone
Thank you so much for the video~ It shows the power of theTWIG XL ! Great review!👍 Btw, we do not have the plan to change the FC to 20A now, 12A is enought to support this powerful drone!
This is an awesome 3 inch. I know dolmafpv won a couple big races with it recently. I kinda wanna get one to add to all my betafpv quads and to race it. It’s more powerful than my gtb339 and alot faster. Love the Ratel cam in this thing!
gutted out my diatone gt369 for its mamba f722 mini stack + esc + vtx... dumped it on a twig xl frame with iflight xing 1404 4600kv... gemfan 3018 biblades... kind of a dream to fly
5:20 was a nice little maneuver. You've gotten noticeably better. Also I wonder why they didn't use the baby Ratel to save even more weight. The baby still performs awesome imo.
Another awesome thing to do to it is upgrade the firmware to Flightone FalcoX. Sure it’s $15 for the license but sooooo worth it. I’ve got the gtb339 from Flightone and love it. Thinking of doing the same to my hx100 when I upgrade it to a 3”. Just not sure I want to use 1204 motors or the 1404 motors just yet. Wanna keep it light.
Great review Justin. HOw much room does it have for a different camera like a split looking for onboard dvr install. Mine arrives on saturday this week. Cant wait. The Stock camera was good but I want better and I dont mind spending a little bit more for better footage. Thanks. Fly it like you stole it.
Great Review! is it confirmed that it comes with the 20amp AIO FC version and not the 12amp version as stated in BetaFPV website? Or they just sent you a special unit that has the 20amp AIO FC version? I am planning to buy this with the 10% offer they are having now that's why i am researching about it.. TIA
Not now a days. Firmware and parts have come along a long way the last few years. I just got the Flightone/Diatone gtb339 and love that thing and now wanting to get this betafpv one or at least upgrade my hx100 to the 115 or this 3” rig. Plus with the fc and firmware that beta uses you can run Flightone FalcoX on it. 👍
I've been a big supporter of 5" quads and have over 15+ builds in 5" category.. For over 4 years its all I've flown, but recently in early November i purchased the BETAFPV HX115 and I have beaten the absolute hell outta this thing around my shop and I cannot believe, that not only the durability of the thing is outstanding but the performance is on par with most, if not all of my 5" builds..I will ve buying this twig to add to my collection for sure.. So if your on the fence, I definitely recommend u try the 3" class out and you'll be extremely surprised.. It's not just hype, it's real! Lol
Good Drone and Job. It really took my eyes, also I like the Diatone 2019 GT R349 , it is only 130g without battery, its battery is 4S also. What do you think? Thanks for your videos, salute from Brazil.
Interesting review. But 15 to 1 thrust/weight ratio? I would be curious to know how you computed that number. I would bet that with that dry weight this quad is probably not even reaching 10 to 1 ratio on 4s. I ll try to find some thrust tests of these motors to check that.
Hey Bro Thanks ill also got one, and it's amazing. Dammed it's Fast!!!, and also nice to freestyle. My Only question is about the props. I'll got some gemfan 3028's winddancers and it's kind of to much. Strange sound. And high amp's.🤯 Do you have a suggestion? Should I stay with the 3016's orginal props? It fly's great on them. But usually my winddancers are my props of choice. For 4 inch at least. Thanks for all the info you spread. Keep up the great work. Peace from Austria Steve
@@dronecamps I emailed BetaFPV and they said "We are sorry that we will not change the fc to 20A on Twig XL 3. 12A is the suitable choice for it~ Hope to get your understand." Did the one you reviewed have the 20A board, and if so, what motors?
Lol right on ...so are you putting the 1505 beta motors on the et5? Im just about to put those on the mutant frame its there 4inch ...my et5 will be here Thursday and slappin 1507 eithix rats on it there isnt put one prop that is tmount 5inch so i wanted to go with something that i coupd use more than just byblades but ive heard the echo of hq is putti g on some tri blade tinch tmounts witch could be very interesting
Awesome review thanks! How do i know what receiver i need? I'm new to drones currently have an emax tinyhawk 2 and use the controller it came with. If i upgrade to the FrSky TARANIS X-Lite S how do i know what receiver to get?
Do you have the access version?if so you will need access frsky receiver,if remote is not the access version of taranis you can get non frsky receiver"be diligent on research to make sure you get right combo to limit headaches"GOOD LUCK👍
Hey Justin I saw on betafpv on Facebook they won’t be updating the esc to 20a claiming it has enough power. This thing on 12a isn’t gonna catch on fire with 4s will it?
Its out man all you gotta do it buy the pod from pheniox3d hes the guy that prints all there pods this model is just a collaboration the magic is building this bad boy yourself been flying all racerx frames since the OG twig this frame kit is the lightest and strongest frame on the market and bryon the owner is a killer dude will go way out his way to make his customers happy
Hey Justin, I just got one of these the 12a version. Flew 3 batteries before work an hour ago. Last flight I hit a towel on the washing line, slow crash, no damage. Now I get no tone when i plug the battery in. Everything looks perfect, esc shows in bf but no motor spin. Video is fine and when I arm the quad, my osd shows it armed and throttle input shows on osd but no motors. Has the esc died in the aio? Any ideas? It was so awesome for the batteries it worked. But expensive for only 3 flights
Couldn’t help it-I ordered this quad from your list. The props in your list are not in stock and I cannot find HQ 3016’s anywhere. Would Gemfan 3016’s be okay to use?
I got mine from PyroDrone in Chatsworth CA today, I'm waiting for my Tango TX from GetFPV. PLEASE SOMEBODY CAN HELP ME OR DIRECT ME TO FIND INFORMATION HOW TO BIND THIS LITTLE DEVIL TO A TBS TANGO TRANSMITTER, HELP HELP. All I found in RUclips is just a bunch of guys having fun flying it but nobody shows step by step how to bind it and set the OSD correctly and BetaFPV website is confusing as hell, please HELP!
I want to do a Semi Pro joke but.......Nope....I got nothing right now. I want to make a frame and call it the "Love Me Sexy" frame Sick review brother
Hey Justin....I haven't talked to you in a while. How you been buddy? I've not been on discord in a minute. Was your amp reading calibrated on this flight? Mine is on the way. Would you want to print me a racer x canopy for it out of tpu?
There's no doubt that I'm getting this one. No question. Definitely an absolute sick quad. Excellent review / flight Justin!! 👍😎👍
Absolutely crazy where the tech is going. 15 to 1 is insane. Cool review Justin...👍🏻🍻👊🏻
RacerX FPV is rocking out some fantastic quads with the entire "Twig" series. Thanks Justin, Jeff

The motors are highly efficient and the tune on it from betafpv was superb 👍 The only thing it needed was the addition of a buzzer.
Thank you so much for the video~ It shows the power of theTWIG XL ! Great review!👍
Btw, we do not have the plan to change the FC to 20A now, 12A is enought to support this powerful drone!
Hey betafpv! Do you have any sellers in europa? Even better in the netherlands who have this quad in stock?

I want this so bad!!! Great Review and great fllying!!! I love small fast quads
Been revisiting some of your old posts,me and lil1 building ultralight 4"bird,Merry Christmas to you and your family n friends🎅🤟👉👈🙏
Oh awesome! Merry Christmas to and your family. Hope the build goes well!
@@dronecamps build cane out amaazing...god bless brotta🙏
Did you test with the 850 battery you recommended? How did it handle w/ that little extra weight?
5:20 was a nice little maneuver. You've gotten noticeably better. Also I wonder why they didn't use the baby Ratel to save even more weight. The baby still performs awesome imo.

Love the quad but disappointed they didn't set up rssi on the crossfire model. It shows it suppose to be on channel 8 but nothing..
Great Review! is it confirmed that it comes with the 20amp AIO FC version and not the 12amp version as stated in BetaFPV website? Or they just sent you a special unit that has the 20amp AIO FC version? I am planning to buy this with the 10% offer they are having now that's why i am researching about it.. TIA
Did you get an answer to this ? - also wondering same - thanks
Thank you a lot! I was waiting for a test on this quad! Now I want it even more xD
Never thought I'd want a 3 inch but damn this one looks fun! Guess size doesn't always matter! ;P

I like it but I would prefer the carbon to be a little thicker for slightly more durability.

Great video! I just bought this twig for $100 Black Friday deal. How can I tell if I have the upgraded 20amp esc’s or not? Thank you
Sick to see that DVR after watching you rip!
That was a super fun session
Interesting review. But 15 to 1 thrust/weight ratio? I would be curious to know how you computed that number.
I would bet that with that dry weight this quad is probably not even reaching 10 to 1 ratio on 4s. I ll try to find some thrust tests of these motors to check that.
So the new version has a 20a AIO? That's great, I was thinking 12a might be a little low for that kind of power
Yep
I saw on the betafpv on Facebook saying they won’t be updating to 20a esc and stick to 12a saying 12ahas enough power... lol
Another great review!!! Awesome meeting and flying with you at Meldrum!!!
You as well. Always glad to meet a friendly drone dude!
Drone Camps RC P.S. your buddy was hilarious!!!!
that look like fun. I want it. And beat was sick, How fast Could it go?

I'm using the HQProp 3030, no problem at all
Great review you must try the twig og the twiglet and twiglet mini frames
luke sky Walker 4 Sure!!✌🏽✌🏽
Soon I hope!
Don't forget the Mutant 4", Twig Tank, and the newly released ET5.
Whatever FPV can’t wait to review the mutant 4 should be coming to my channel soon!!💯
@@SteveO4478 I'm going to get that one also love the black canopy and the gold geprc motors on your primo 3
Is it faster than the Diatone GT R369 SX Limited Edition 3" ??
do you think you could squeeze in a split nano 3 ?
Thanks for the review. I'm excited to get one. How can I make sure I get the new version with the F411 20A AIO FC?
Make sure you email betafpv
@@dronecamps I emailed BetaFPV and they said "We are sorry that we will not change the fc to 20A on Twig XL 3. 12A is the suitable choice for it~ Hope to get your understand."
Did the one you reviewed have the 20A board, and if so, what motors?
Doesn’t BetaFPV still have the 12amp board coming in this quad?? Leave it to them to do something different than what they say they will..
Haha im glade you put that up there sorry we called it out on that backwards pod lol all in good fun great review man
No worries. Not my first time building. That was parts thrown on the scale. 👍🏻
Lol i def know that ibe been watching the cjannel for years im pretty sure the other dude just wanted to call out a reviewer for a mistake
People always want to try me. They often lose.
Lol right on ...so are you putting the 1505 beta motors on the et5? Im just about to put those on the mutant frame its there 4inch ...my et5 will be here Thursday and slappin 1507 eithix rats on it there isnt put one prop that is tmount 5inch so i wanted to go with something that i coupd use more than just byblades but ive heard the echo of hq is putti g on some tri blade tinch tmounts witch could be very interesting

Waiting for their Cadxx Vista/Crossfire/3" sub 250

Yep!
Can you squeeze 4" props on it? Looks like there's just enough space...
🍻cheers🥃
Late reply, but my props seem to be about 2mm away from the VTX antenna. I think if you move or remount that you could
Better late then never thanks for the update and happy flying!
Think I am going to buy one!payday tonight!
Woooooo!!! You’re going to love it just get some extra canopies along with it if you can find the link! Maybe the 95 X canopy will fit.
Drone Camps RC hey man 4s 450 or 4s 650 mah battery? Pyro listing show 4s 450 mah.
Ho, which is better between this and an Eachine Tyro79? Is there much difference between them? Thanks
Do I need to do any setup with the flight controller? Or just bind it to my controller and fly?
What quad in Velocidrone would you suggest using that flies similar to the TWIG XL? Thank you
I’m really torn between the Twig XL 3” and the Diatone GT R349... does anyone that’s flown both have a preference?
Budy has twig, i have 349. No comparison the 349 rocks. The twig is awesome too, but its not the 349.
Hmm nice one😁 geprc dolphin or this one guys
Both?
I was wondering the same thing. I just received my geprc dolphin and it's a beast.. now I want this one too! My girl is gonna murder me
I’m kinda curious, you mentioned freestyling, but does it feel like it has enough momentum to do some tricks or is it limited compared to a 5 inch?
Not all limited flight wise. Unless you want to carry a Gopro. That would be its limit.
Dang I`m going to go bankrupt if I keep watching your video`s!!!
Hey I just bought this quad the frsky Verison will I be able to bind this to a betafpv lite s radio?
Hey Justin,
I just got one of these the 12a version. Flew 3 batteries before work an hour ago.
Last flight I hit a towel on the washing line, slow crash, no damage.
Now I get no tone when i plug the battery in. Everything looks perfect, esc shows in bf but no motor spin.
Video is fine and when I arm the quad, my osd shows it armed and throttle input shows on osd but no motors.
Has the esc died in the aio? Any ideas?
It was so awesome for the batteries it worked. But expensive for only 3 flights
SQuiD-FPV how do you know if you have the 12 or 20a version?
@@icecorebaby says 12a on the board. Comes as bnf

that 0 rssi is driving me nuts, i can’t pay attention to anything else lol
What caused the crash? Looked like a fail safe
???
Hey, what controller can I get for this drone or does it come with it?
I got one of these (crossfire version) inbound from pyrodrone... wondering if its going to show up with a 20a and 400mw vtx?
I heard they didn’t end up using the 20a esc stacks. No idea why.
Justin is that 12a or 20a board
Is it very loud when flying?
How do the 850mah fly? I have 6 of those batteries already
Not too bad. Should be fine.
Like to see this in a 4 inch version....
racerxfpv.com/our-products
Would a 3s 450 mah be good
Would dji caddx strap up in this
For Freestyle ?
Do you think This one is better dan the diatone gt er349 tbs
