Designed to be the best all-around neck strap on the market, period. Not too long, not too short, the right buckle, not too fancy. Comfortable, easy to use. in the distinctive Ethix green.
****Please note that the clasp on this is TOO BIG for the Gforce balancer.****
Just got it in today. the pad is way too small IMO, and its been stitched in place to stop it from moving, which would be great except its stitched about 3" off center. so I have to adjust the strap way out of center to fix it. the pad is small and not that soft on my skin. at least it wasn't expensive....

Best neck strap!!
Beats all FrSky neck straps that have no comfort. Won’t look for any other after this purchase!

I disagree with the review claiming that the strap is flimsy. Far from it, this strap is made using a weave reminiscent of automotive safety belts.
The neck pad isn't particularly useful, and it tends to slide around, so I put a dot of hot melt glue on each edge of it to hold it in place. I have no regrets with this purchase.
I wanted something that was packable and easy to take with. Got tired of needing to pack a large radio, neck straps, and all of the needed padding to just fly my whoops when traveling. This radio is so much easier to throw in a bag and fly with. Coming from a Taranis X9D plus, the pocket is a lot lighter and easier to carry. Gimbals feel good and it’s comfortable when holding. It’s the first small radio I tried that I was able to feel comfortable with. Compared to Zorro and TX12, the Pocket feels a lot more balanced. Highly recommended as a travel or only radio if you want something light and easy to carry.
Some downsides:
1. Arming/disarming takes a bit to get used to since there are not traditional switches.
2. Even though there are 5 position switches for the trims, you can’t use the center press as a switch like Jumper
3. The case is glossy, I wish it was more textured like DJI radios for better grip.
4. The speaker makes a buzzing sound when powered on and sometimes switching things in menus.
Otherwise great radio that’s easy to fly and live with.
I flew drones yrs ago. I dabbled in all types of drones from tiny whoops to 4 inch freestyle/acro quads to cine dji. Good beginner starter bundle. Definitely worth the $.
