Im a proper noob (2nd week flying), been flying the Happymodel Mobula 8 Digital HD with Walksnail, Walksnail Avatar Goggles L and Radiomaster Pocket. It's great for flying around inside my house, out the windows and back in through door (been practising in Horizon mode). Recommended by UAV Futures. Total cost was around £450 all in. ERLS 2.4g compatible. I'm flying in London, and sadly one crash into outside window frame the the horizon went all wonky and I lost control and it flew off, lost signal and it is in someones garden somewhere - and annoyingly my card wasnt in my goggles for me to review the footage! Lots of mistakes to learn from. Got another on order from Banggood. Wont make that mistake again I hope. Putting the hours in on Liftoff in Acro (which I should have done more of to be honest). Having fun with new hobby so far! (Despite the above cock up)
Don't give up! You keep getting better and better :-) and the quads will get bigger as you gain more confidence. I've also had my eye on the Radiomaster Pocket - currently using the Zorro. How happy are you with the Pocket? Are there any things that bother you about it?
I also started with the Cetus X, its pretty decent but mine had overheating issues. How do you like the Drashark?? I am thinking about getting it or something similar
Yes I know the overheating problems if you had it disarmed for too long. I like my Drashark, but have a look at the other comments below this video. Many have suggested their favorites among the whoops.
I got a 2nd hand Cetus X ELRS kit discounted off the FaceBook marketplace when I was travelling through a warm country and needed an FPV fix. It was discounted because the VTX was almost burnt out. Luckily a local store had a camera module in stock and the price wasn't horrible. This was the BF version. Had to take off soon to avoid overheating in 35degC weather. Fun park cruiser, way too overpowered for indoor flights, and it catches breezes. So, it's probably not my first choice of learner drone either.
I think the BF version is definitely more fun. However, I wouldn't recommend the Cetus version to anyone. The drone itself is really fun and I got into the hobby because of it. However, you can hardly reuse any parts.
I have the Cetus X betaflight version and it is a great drone for practicing. I think your main issue is going for the non betaflight version because other than that it is a great drone.
I had also considered the Mobula8 in the past. But I could never really decide between Mobula 6, 7 or 8. Have you been able to test them all and can perhaps share your experience with us?
@@fpv-geek As a complete noob I bought a mob8 after about 15 simulator hours. It's fun in larger areas but I've found it way to fast around the house and my small yard as a beginner. From what i understand the mob6/7 are better suited to smaller spaces while still having enough punch for some outdoors too. I wanted the mob8 as I plan on converting it to a Crux3 when I'm more competent and all I'll need to do so is a frame, some motors and props :-)
@@krazed0451 The Crux3 looks good, it could be really good for freestyle. I wish I could try out all the whoops, but that would be too expensive in the long run 😀
I have demo’s of the meteor learning acro on my channel but the short answer is yes and that’s just the meteor not the meteor pro which is meant to be even better and is the whoop I’m getting next
@@samcacc..03 This is consistent with my experience with the Cetus X and LiteSilver firmware. You can cruise around, but even flips and rolls are damn hard. Or if you dive, the firmware simply disarms and you can only arm again when you're on the ground.
I always look for the best channel. You can still adjust the camera focus on the camera itself. This also helps enormously if it has become misaligned. However, I have to say that the video quality of the Cetus X and the Drashark are worlds apart. Drashark is much better.

Thumbs up, if you want to see the shark in more detail.
Your videos have gotten really good lately. Keep it up! 🔥
Thank you

Makse sense.
I like the Fractal 75 whoops

Meteor 75 pro is my vote :)

huhu help me i cant bind my cetus x to my googles :.( whats the problem?
Try long pressing the S-Button on top of it. This will process a search for all frequencies. (Analog doesn't need binding)
I have the Cetus X betaflight version and it is a great drone for practicing. I think your main issue is going for the non betaflight version because other than that it is a great drone.
Yes, definitely.
must have's Mobula7, Meteor Pro 75, Drashark16, Crux3 elrs
The Crux3 elrs looks really good. It will definitely be at the top of my wish list. Thank you!
I've converted mine with a 3d printed frame into a good freestyle drone !
Do you have a link to the STL file?
The Mobula8. A great 2S, 2-inch whoop.

BETAFPV is the best❤❤❤
I own drashark and i crash hard and broke camera 😅
Could you swap out the camera? I never found the original one and installed a Caddx Ant Lite instead.
Get yourself a meteor 75 pro you’ve already got the batteries needed
Is the Meteor good for freestyle?
I have demo’s of the meteor learning acro on my channel but the short answer is yes and that’s just the meteor not the meteor pro which is meant to be even better and is the whoop I’m getting next
Air 65 looks good I'd fly and crash for a month it's still going 😊
Do you have the racing or the freestyle version?
@@fpv-geek race. But I highly recommend the tinygo 4k i having it for almost 2 years now is coming with elrs check it ou
my mistake was the Aquila16 from BETAFPV, now i have better drones😂😂
Which one did you get now? What was bad about the Aquila16?
@@fpv-geek there were only the betafpv one, i hate the way it flyies in acro, it is really impossible to use it
@@samcacc..03 This is consistent with my experience with the Cetus X and LiteSilver firmware.

Flywoo flylens
But this is more of a cinewhoop, isn't it?
How did you get the video to get so clear and actually good quality?
I always look for the best channel. You can still adjust the camera focus on the camera itself. This also helps enormously if it has become misaligned.
However, I have to say that the video quality of the Cetus X and the Drashark are worlds apart. Drashark is much better.
Can't wait till my brand new flylens75 gets delivered! Have a great day man
