Introduction:
The iFlight Protek25 is an impressive first-person view (FPV) cinewhoop drone that delivers exceptional performance despite its compact size. Even when equipped with a full-fat GoPro camera, the drone offers a remarkably smooth flying experience. However, its weight can be a drawback in terms of safety. In this review, we’ll delve into the features, specifications, and flight capabilities of the iFlight Protek25, a reliable and well-built FPV drone designed for capturing unique aerial footage.
Design and Purpose:
The Protek25, manufactured by renowned FPV drone company iFlight, belongs to the growing category of cinewhoop drones. These drones have gained popularity in mainstream media for capturing distinctive footage, from house tours to capturing shots while flying through confined spaces or vehicles. The Protek25 features propeller guards, enhancing its safety for flying around people and indoors.
Specs and Options:
The Protek25 is equipped with 2.5-inch (65mm) three-blade bull-nose propellers, a common configuration among cinewhoop drones of this size. It comes in various FPV video transmission options, including the DJI FPV V2 system, with prices adjusted accordingly. The analog version of the Protek25 has a starting weight of 184g without a battery, making it slightly heavier than other cinewhoops in its class.
Flight Performance:
Out of the box, the Protek25 is reasonably well-tuned and has stock rates in the flight control firmware. For optimal performance, it is recommended to adjust the rates and PID controller gains to suit personal preferences and accommodate payloads such as a GoPro camera. When flying without a payload and carrying a 650mAh 4S battery, the drone delivers smooth performance, and the motors remain cool. However, when carrying a GoPro Hero 10 with a battery, it may feel slightly less agile, and the motors can become warm to the touch. Tuning the PID controller gains on the pitch axis helps compensate for the added weight of an HD camera.
Build Quality and Reliability:
The iFlight Protek25 exhibits impressive build quality and reliability. The solder joints are solid, and the motors operate smoothly. While plug connectors on flight controllers can sometimes be weak, the connectors on the Protek25 have proven to be reliable. However, some precautions may be necessary, such as covering exposed plugs to prevent water damage when flying in wet conditions.
Conclusion:
The iFlight Protek25 is a capable FPV cinewhoop drone that offers a smooth flying experience and delivers impressive results in aerial cinematography. With its sturdy build, propeller guards, and customizable options, it proves to be a reliable tool for capturing unique footage in various environments. While its weight may impact safety considerations, proper adjustments and tuning can optimize its performance when carrying a GoPro camera. If you’re an FPV enthusiast or aerial cinematographer seeking a compact and reliable drone, the iFlight Protek25 is worth considering for its features and capabilities.
