The DJI FPV is a drone with a lot of possible uses it has a good quality camera that (if you supply fast enough MicroSD cards (opens in new tab)) can capture 4K at 60fps. Superceeded in some regards by the DJI Avata Other than that, you get a good selection of accessories in the box: antennas, tools, rubber battery stickers, props, and more. The drone includes the Caddx vista HD digital video transmission system, so you’ll likely need DJI FPV Goggles which will be something of an investment in themselves though. The firm is also well known for the quality of its default PIDs (flight settings), and this machine is no exception, which means even pilots used to the consumer-friendly experiences of camera drones should be able to transition to the world of FPV. With 5mm thick carbon arms, this drone is going to be difficult to break even in a pretty fast collision, but if you want to try iFlight is offering the machine in both (fast) 4S and (screeching) 6S versions. (Perhaps that’s why it uses the Succex-EF4 flight stack?) Powered by Xing-E 2207 2750KV motors, the Nazgul 5 might be named after the baddies in Lord of the Rings, but that power is a useful thing if you choose to act responsibly many drone pilots lamented the increase in weight to the latest GoPro cameras (opens in new tab), but this powerful machine seems unconcerned by the extra grams.

Read our full DJI Avata review (opens in new tab) for more details Still, the standard bundles are probably easier to use than the DJI FPV and, on balance, we’d take the whoop-style frame over the collision sensors any day. To unleash the maximum speed mode and acrobatics you’ll need to add a stick-type remote controller, which will add to the budget. The Avata isn’t quite for everyone because FPV will always be a little special. We’d also have liked one of DJI’s custom bags in the Fly More kit as it’s a clumsy collection of bits to carry. In terms of flaws, the ports are inconvenient. It’s also worth thinking that, in value terms, the GoPro which piggy-backs on a self-build is another cost, as is the controller, so the initial price isn’t so bad. In other words, you can fly FPV – and capture amazing footage – without getting the soldering iron out. What is exciting though is how easy things are beyond that, with consumer safety features and stability as well as a great camera certainly better than most FPV drones with strapped-on GoPro Mini-like cameras that lack physical stabilization. If this is your first FPV aircraft it’s a significant investment as you need all the accessories, and some space to fly. It’s easy to love the robustness (we checked!) DJI Avata, which makes the joys of FPV flight readily accessible for the average consumer. There is unrestrained joyful fun to be had, but the unique cinematographic possibilities of FPV haven’t gone unnoticed so, since we’re a photography site, we’ve covered other ways of getting the FPV-look in this list too. Modern FPV drones still come from an exciting, varied market of small enthusiast-led companies, though the biggest firm in the industry, DJI, seems now to have fully committed. More recently this has been commercialized as a spectator (not to mention TV) event by organizations like the Drone Racing League and Multi GP. In that context, FPV has always been popular with the hobby community as well as interested visitors at events like the International Drone Day “Mini Air Show,” first held in 2015. Here we will take FPV to mean drones which at least allow goggle-wearing, and encourage speed. Spotter: A friend to keep an eye on the wider airspace in case you get lost in the zone.
