Flywoo - Flylens 85 HD O4 PRO 2S LED Whoop FPV Drone V1.3

If you can save $80-$100 more dollars for shipping and batteries, I'd reccomend going with the Flywoo Flylens 85 O4 Pro version. I have the O3 version and it flies great indoor and outdoor. 87.5 grams without battery, over 100 grams with a battery. I fly with Flywoo's Explorer 1000mAH battery. Has the V2 version of their Goku F405 AIO with onboard ELRS. The O4 pro version is $360 without batteries.

I've got a 5" and am really considering down sizing due to the space required to fly it. I'm not sure if 3.5" will reduce that enough. I think the O4 pro is the way to go because it seemed to have better penetration results in the Bardwell initial tests. I fly in treed areas, so lite will be a nogo for me just for that reason. That said, I have a 5" that functions perfectly fine, so I kinda wonder if I'd notice enough difference with 3.5" to make the cost worth it.

My recommendation if you are starting today, is definitely get the radio first, and practice on the sim. I have a preference for DJI, since it has great quality video and range. The higher Latvia still low enough that you won’t have a problem with it starting out. For your first drone then I’d recommend starting of small. Like a 2s+ whoop with o4 light. They are really fun and can be flown just about anywhere. I do love my 5’’ but it takes so much time to get somewhere I can actually fly, I don’t end up doing it as often as I’d like.

I fly my tiny whoops more than anything. But my second favorite is the flywoo air85

Sorry flylens 85

More than the Pavo femto that’s for sure haha It’s no stunt drone. But I trust it for a waterfall dive more than the femto

Flylens 85 I have the Pavo20 and like it but the Flylens 85 is lighter.

Flywoo Flylens85 has been great for me.

I would recommend the flywoo flylens 85. It's a small drone and not meant for distance, but it's a lot of fun, decent flight time with the 750mah HV batteries, and will bounce off things when you crash instead of break like a 5" will.

It depends what you want to do. If you want to freestyle maybe a tinywhoop is good, but for me I get bored of doing flippy floppies in the park.  I want to go dive waterfalls and do general exploration outside so i went with an avata 2. It gets hated on here, but i quite like it. I also have a flylens 85 for doing loops in the park. eventually i may get a 5" or a 7". I know i'd have got bored of a tinywhoop almost immediately. Wind is a huge factor and it sucks not being able to do anything in a mild breeze.
