This weird sensation leaves you trying to move your head so you can see the drone.

The goggles transmission is so crystal clear, it’s like your using your own eyes. You’re seeing everything from a different perspective, you’re seeing what the drone sees, hence First Person View. If like me, you’ve never used FPV Goggles and losing sight of the drone before takeoff is a little disconcerting, you need to take extra care. Be respectful of that acceleration and speed. No buildup or lag, it’s like a Ferrari compared to Phantoms and Mavic’s. In the Sport Mode, it quickly accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in seconds. It’s extremely fast, even in “Normal” mode and very responsive compared to any Phantom or Mavic I have used.

I began learning to fly in manual mode on toy drones, but, quickly adapted to DJI’s GPS technology.Īfter using 3 batteries today, I find the FPV drone to be of the same standards we have come to expect from DJI. Because of that, I’ve been able to capture some beautiful moments on my travels that I could never have imagined without a drone.

I’ve become quite comfortable with using DJI drones and I’ve gained huge trust in the flight software and capabilities. I’ve flown in extreme environments from the open ocean to over 10,000 feet to see the cauldron of a volcano. I’ve been flying a Phantom since getting the Phantom 2 back in 2014. This is my first flight impression of the new FPV drone from someone who has been a long-time Phantom and Mavic pilot. This real hands-on review has been written by a fellow drone pilot, Mark Hollow, who recently bought DJI’s latest drone. I’m not going to go into details of how it may feel cheap or not, or ooh it feels weighty etc, we no longer care what drones look like, we care about how they perform, so that’s what I will focus on in this review.ĭJI FPV Drone Flight Performance (From An Amateur Pilot) If like me, you’re new to the world of FPV drones, you may want to read this article first.īut what DJI has done is, made most of the parts replaceable and available to buy, so you can potentially fix your crashed drone yourself and be flying again in no time or there’s always the refresh care packages. It’s very common for FPV drones to be crashed and destroying a $1299 drone is no laughing joke. $1598 is expensive for an FPV drone (or any drone for that matter), and most of the FPV pilots will be laughing at this. So I would say if you can afford it, then do it, if not, don’t. I always recommend buying a fly more kit, but in this case, it will push the overall cost to $1598. This includes two extra batteries and a charging hub. However, you can buy a fly more kit at an additional cost of $299. What there doesn’t seem to be just yet is a fly more combo like we have come to expect with most of DJI’s other drones.

This includes the drone, FPV goggles and the remote controller plus all the usual extras, like propellers, cables and charger. Secondly, or maybe a joint first is the price. It’s not the conventional style of a DJI Mavic or Phantom (although it slightly resembles a small inspire), and it’s certainly not in line with a typical FPV racing drone.

The first thing which is hard to not notice is the shape and style of the drone.
