This is the outdoor FPV Fun Flight Review for the new Blade Inductrix FPV Pro Micro FPV Drone with music added for the flight portion of the video!

Blade Inductrix FPV Pro Outdoor FPV Fun With Music! (6 min 19 sec)

In this video I take it outside on a windy day can do some of the things I have tried to do with other Compact FPV Drones such as the Poke FPV and the Blade Nano QX2 FPV at the same location.

I also shot a similar video for my new rocket known as the EMAX Babyhawk, so look for that soon! I flew this one first, so it is getting uploaded first.

Here are my review notes for this fun little Tiny Whoop:

Pros
- The camera performs very well in varying lighting
- It looks really cool
- More responsive
- 19,000 kv motors
- An upgraded airframe for durability
- Comes with a bigger battery than the original Inductrix
- Maiden flight was nearly 4 minutes
- 5.8GHZ FPV
- It is BNF so I can use it with my Spektrum DX6
- Betaflight configurable
- It is lighter than the original Blade Inductrix FPV

Cons:
- It is much louder than I expected
- It experienes random shakes or "jumps" in the air
- 25mW VTX (I wish it had more power)
- The VTX gets hot pretty quickly

In this video I unboxing the plane, go for a few maiden flights, and wrap things up with a quick summary review at the end of the video.

Here are my review notes for this RC Plane:

Pros:
- Long flight time of around 15 minutes
- It glided nice once in the air
- It has good power with a 2S 300mAh lipo
- Looks pretty cool
- Set-up is easy
- It transports well in its box
- It comes FPV Ready

Cons:
- Does not offer great control, even on high rates, especially when compared to the E-flite UMX Radian
- You need more space to fly it than you would think
- FPV it with caution and a spotter

Eachine E33C RTF RC Camera Quadcopter With Headless Mode Unboxing, Maiden Flight, and Review (15 min 14 sec)

This is one of three different versions. This one feature in the video, the Eachine E33C, has a camera. The Eachine E33 does not have a camera and the Eachine E33W is the Wifi model.

Here are my review notes for this RC Camera Drone:

Pros:
- The bright lights
- It appears to be pretty durable
- It comes with spare props and spinners
- Landing gear and prop guards are optional
- Two flight modes
- It will perform flips
- It comes with a camera
- It looks good

Cons:
- The flips are delayed and not tight
- The throttle is extremely touchy
- The yaw in both flight modes is really slow

This is the Unboxing, Maiden Flight, and Review for the new Blade Inductrix FPV Pro Micro FPV Drone.

Blade Inductrix FPV Pro Micro FPV Drone Unboxing, Maiden Flight, and Review (16 min 54 sec)

In this video I compare it to some other Compact FPV Drones such as the Original Blade Inductrix, Poke FPV, and the Blade Nano QX2 FPV. I didn't buy an original Blade Inductrix FPV, which was modeled after the Tiny Whoop, but I did discuss some of the differences between the two in the video.

Here are my review notes:

Pros
- It looks really cool
- More responsive
- 19,000 kv motors
- An upgraded airframe for durability
- Comes with a bigger battery than the original Inductrix
- Maiden flight was nearly 4 minutes
- 5.8GHZ FPV
- It is BNF so I can use it with my Spektrum DX6
- Betaflight configurable
- It is lighter than the original Blade Inductrix FPV

Cons:
- It is much louder than I expected
- It experienes random shakes or "jumps" in the air
- 25mW camera/VTX combo
- The VTX gets hot pretty quickly

I am every curious to see how this performs outside as I hope it is something I can fly when I take out my EMAX Babyhawk too.

Hey guys!

I just uploaded my maiden flight with my GoPro attached to my MJX Bugs 3. I am pretty impressed overall with how this little beast handled the extra weight.
