First Look: Torvol Pitstop Pro v2

It has been a year and a half traveling and flying with the iFlight FPV backpack and it has held up like a champ. When I saw the V2 version of the Torvol pitstop pro (arguably the goat of FPV-specific bags), I decided that I wanted to change up my backpack and give the Torvol a try. This video is like an exit interview for the iFlight FPV backpack and a first look at the Pitstop Pro v2.

Great review Nate! I just got back from Aruba as well. I applied for a permit to fly there and got to fly areas that were “No Drone” zones :) Great place to fly

[@Nathan_Adams]

Very nice! The permit process in Aruba is surprisingly straight forward and easy. Where did you fly on the island?

[@cozzy206]

Thanks great review

[@Nathan_Adams]

Thank you 🍻

[@Simofly]

Thanks for the review ! I have an old torvol V1, and the zip broke in the lower part corner. I’m evaluating if buying v2 , iflight seems nice, but here in EU is hard to find or with a much higher price

[@Nathan_Adams]

I think the iFlight is a great bag, but if you're going to pay more for it, the torval V2 I think is the move. The V2 has been excellent so far. And if you have to hike or travel via train or other public transport to get to a spot, the V2 is significantly more comfortable with a heavy load. Thank you 🥂

[@lubosschejbal9258]

Great comparison. Thank you for nice work. I bought Torvol Pitstop Pro v2 and it’s great. I just still can’t get used to it. But this is not problem of Torvol. I just wanted something where I can put all I need and than it seems too heavy fully loaded with 6 batteries, 2 quads, 2 googles, radio, NBD tool set, charger, spare props, heliport, etc. Due to it’s shape and weight it feels like I am lifting fakin fridge on my back. 😅

[@Nathan_Adams]

I agree, the amount of gear for FPV that we carry is always going to be heavy. The Pitstop Pro does a better job than the iFlight at distributing the weight, but my bag is still heavily, especially when packed with Lipos (my normal cart is 10-15 6s and 4s packs). If you have not already tried, adjust the shoulder position straps at the very top, that can sometimes help shift the weight to a better position for your back

[@MTB_FPV]

still left not sure which one to get ha

[@Nathan_Adams]

To be honest, it is like coke and Pepsi. If you are going to be carrying the pack longer distances, go with Torvol pro v2 because the back design and strap density is better. If you are limited on what you want to spend on an FPV backpack, go with the iFlight. If neither of those matter, I think I like the bag to unzip and open from the top down like the iFlight, so if I want to just grab my radio, I dont have to lay the backpack down and open it all the way up like the torvol

[@MTB_FPV]

@Nathan_Adams I went with iflight, ordered it today! I have the torvol pitstop non pro and love it, but all the things I hate are better in the iflight.

[@Nathan_Adams]

@@MTB_FPV nice! My friend now uses my old iFlight bag and loves it too, It is a fantastic bit of kit! Congratulations on the new bag
