GEPRC blackisted other youtube reviewers if they aren't shilling so thanks for the honest review!

[ZeroVoltFPV]

I greatly respect your honesty and your decision to possibly "take the hit" for speaking with integrity for the end-users within out hobby. I know that this was not a decision that you made lightly and without moral standing. This kind of honesty is what sets you apart from many other reviewers within the space.
One question, is it possible to use an ESC configurator to move over to BlueJay or any other currently licensed and supported firmware? This still does not solve the main issue that is at hand for many of the newer pilots to the hobby, but it would be nice to know if there are ways to perhaps move towards a safer and more supported option for the end users who have the knowledge of how to do this. You are the man, Ian!

I think your the only person i have ever seen take apart a drone for a reiw, love it..

[colibrifpv]

If you care about sub250g this is a great option, if you don't, it's seriously underpowered. Those 1404's are what we usually see on 2.5" cinewhoops...

It probably the 31.10 firmware on some FC from other manufactory which has been authorized by BLheli team before, But the FC on the CineLog 30V2 is the latest version FC which on 31.9 BL we tested fairly nice，Additionally, the official version of BL32 cannot be authorized. There are also other options available, such as AM32 and APE32, but their effects are not as mature or stable as BL32.

9:19 Just a small thing to point out, that's more than likely the new package for the AT7456E OSD IC! They've been making their way to more and more boards recently, it's practically the same silicon, just in a smaller package 😊

[luketurner]

perfect excuse to make a flash it with the am32 unlocker video :) iv been doing a lot of my esc as of late

[langkahkecilkuuu]

I have used cinelog25 and cinelog35 v2 quads, both quads are very noisy. is the cinelog30 v2 quad noisy?
is there any suggestion for a quiet whoop in the 3" size?
but I like the design of the cinelog30 v2

Thanks

The WTFPV option just means it comes without a camera & VTX. (Without FPV perhaps?)

[aowi]

I've been looking for one like this, but I agree about the BL32 software. What 3" would you recommend?

[vatsalkonkani]

I saw couple of videos but no one mentioned about BLheli 👍

[siempreruedas]

Saludos excelente como siempre mucha info sabes por que tengo algunas vibraciones en mi pavo 20 recién cambie el frame por el pro y motores 1104 y siento que en esa configuracion tengo algunas vibraciones 😢

[gimbalair]

On a different note, does it look like the 04 would drop straight in, wondering if they will offer it as an option when released.

[HaleFPVRC]

Great review as always. The esc firmware basically leaving you stuck puts this one in the “hard pass” category for me. Especially at the price

[gimbalair]

I love my v1 but the frames were fragile. I use it for flythroughs with a naked 11 on top and an 1100 battery. Presumably you can flash the esc? With bluejay but might need tuning afterwards. Step fwd Chris Rosser?

Would like this with 04 as indoors inside gyms, theatres and the like it is not a good camera. The avata2 smashes those conditions though

[onclefly]

Hi, you have the speedybee BEE25 best, bro

[dondupuis]

Wonder, if the final version will be corrected.

[CarbonIcarusFPV]

I gotta say.. you can always count on Ian to fall on the grenade. ..In all fairness, I doubt most of the other reviewers noticed the grenade rolling in. 😄

[itzvittorio]

Unfortunately also the new Cinelog30 V3 has this firmware. Online I found the correct configurator to be able to change some settings.
Of course here the problem is much bigger, an update to AM32 would be better but I'm not sure it is even compatible

1:21 we all got packaging in the middle
