I’ve been in the hobby since 2017 and never experienced packs this bad. Came way out of balance right out of box like they’ve sat for years on shelf. Flight time is 1 minute when the Ovanic 1300 I usually use gets 4 minutes. I’m struggling financially to stay in the air these days and this was a 200 dollar loss👎🏼 DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY LIKE I DID!!!!
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 $.
