I bought a Baby Ape II for a little over $100. Been flying it for a couple months and I love it 👍. Im using a Radiomaster Zorro transmitter and Fatshark Scout box goggles. Pretty sweet setup for my first “outdoor only” quad. Definitely recommend. I also agree with the sim, 100% get good on a sim such as Uncrashed before flying a bigger drone outside. It will save you lots of $$ in repairs and liability 😅. Good luck!! 👊
r/fpv • What is a good but cheap drone? ->I have the 6s as well, and I love it!! Super powerful in such a small package. I just busted a motor in a pretty good crash, so I have to order some and wait for them to come in… back to the SIM for now lol. 👊

Just upgraded my gimbals 2 days ago to the CNC aluminum ones, and love them (not in this pic). Crashed and repaired it a few times, but haven’t upgraded any parts yet other than the VTX antenna. I might look for a better camera soon, the one it came with is meh. Any recommendations 🤔
r/fpv • What is a good but cheap drone? ->Oh hell yeah! That’s a bad ass setup. Those motors look mean!! Im definitely gonna get a thumb cam for mine as well. I’m gonna look into the speedybee tx800 and Caddx Ratel too! Oh yeah, I miss my DX8 and T-Rex 500. Those cost a whole lot more to crash though 😮💨
r/fpv • What is a good but cheap drone? ->That’s really cool! The Baby Ape II I have is the 6s version. So I literally went from a Mobula7 1s, straight to 6s 😅 but I LOVE IT!! I feel a little bad mucking up OP’s thread with all this awesomeness, but is there any way for you to show me some flight footage you have from that bad boy? 😳
r/fpv • What is a good but cheap drone? ->Get a air65 first, then a mob8 or a babyape2 for the days there’s good weather, practice with the air65, then when you feel like you know you won’t crash, upgrade! Bam
r/fpv • Choosing between 5” 3.5” or a whoop ->That's what I started with. It's fast but will take a beating.
r/fpv • Is the Nazgul v3 analog a good starter drone? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
