DJI FPV vs FPV Drone | IN DEPTH COMPARISON

Finally feel like I have enough flight time on the DJI FPV to do a proper comparison between it and traditional FPV drones that people have been flying for years. Would love to know your thoughts down in the comments!

Yeah, it really excites me what DJI would do on future versions of the DJI FPV! The first one's already good and fun to fly, hopefully the 2nd version's gonna be 10x even better!

I have both and I use both. What I love about the DJI is that I can dive some crazy cliff at the top of a mountain and know that if i lose signal on the way down it will recover and return. On the controller issue, for your 5 inch, i would definitely recommend getting a tango 2 and just running crossfire instead of dji, that controller is really awful :)

After testing out a bunch of different options I decided to use the DJI with a GoPro 9 on top. Hopefully DJI comes out with a replaceable camera that beats the GoPro quality in the near future.

i think you nailed it. Both systems are good in their own ways.
A traditional FPV drone or a cinewoope with DJI FPV or Caddx is much more versetile, lighter and manuverable then the DJI FPV Drone but most dont fly out of the box.
i have like 4 Frames here that i tryed for FPV ( since 2014 all analog) and they never worked right the drone that got my flying FPV with confidence was the DJI FPV Drone.
and if i get a Caddx or DJI FPV system i can bind with the smaller controler i will install it in one of the other frames.

Could you do a walkthrough of your customization of the DJI FPV to improve the manual setting? And maybe a "what manual does and does not" section?

[Marcus-ut]

Your analysis is right on imo, and your content is fire bro…… thanks for all you do for us and giving us what we want. I will say on DJI you can take off height limits and geo fencing easily……

[AerRider]

I think you should do the palm-to-whoop “bing” sound more often.

[lordvaati]

very good video! Thank you for all the detailed explanations. Keep up the good work.

[HappyFPV]

When you put just a little more effort in your traditional drone you could just use the Tango 2 and check that controler box right?

[scotthines]

The DJI fpv drone by far is the best for long range. The Fpv drone can be very precise in handling if adjusted correctly in the rate settings. I've been working with betaflight and soldering for years but find the fpv Drone my favorite.

Hey Danny, nice video. For a smaller xBox style controller for fpv builds, look up the TBS Tango 2. Its a great controller with a similar, small size to the DJI FPV drone controller.

(edit) - you just need to attach a small CrossFire receiver to the DJI Air unit.

If we make bit corrections in DJI video, It would be actually much better ! Both are good, I recommend DJI for Beginners and just for casual flying while Traditional for Professionals

[MrSabram]

Can you easily repair the DJI FPV drone?

[saintketchup]

can I buy the DJI FPV drone with the components and later on change the headset/control to another drone?

[backtoafrica]

Do a video to compare the 2 DJI controller you just show us.
Both are DJI, are they not compatible with each other?

[personabovefarts]

Nice comparison man! Since I'm avid on the sports mode, I'd stick with the user-friendly DJI FPV for now! I might try traditional FPVs when I reach that level of confidence and skill I need to go full-on manual with drones but to reach that I need the DJI FPV!

[gchrisfx]

Really nice in depth video! I would like to see a video of you showing comparison of linear/wide/ultra wide on gopro! PLEASE

[davidlugo]

does the cinewhoop and nazgul 5 not come with a camera? you need to put a go pro on them? also, I have a go pro, can I shoot vertically and horizontally? im looking to film both so I can post on YouTube and tik tok. also, can I get a different remote for the traditional drones? that remote you showed doesnt look the best.

[whitedevil]

i dont get why are people not liking his video is sooo cool, bro don't stop u are making awesome content

[clarkjames]

danny the TBS tango 2 will change your life, it's as small as the dji fpv controller, and the sticks fold flat, it's amazing to travel with
