When DJI unveiled the O4 Air Unit earlier this year, the FPV (first-person view) drone community braced for a leap: 4K/60fps filming, crisp 1080p live feed, and a size-light enough to sit on tree branches… or your fingertip. BETAFPV answered the call with the Pavo Femto, a 75 mm, brushless 2S whoop that feels almost magical in how well it balances size with capability.

Ahhh, winter. A great time to just stay indoors, binge on Netflix, and dream of warmer days. What it’s not that great for is improving your drone piloting skills, unless you’re using a simulator. We have another suggestion.

I’ll say this because I know it: Starting out in FPV isn’t the easiest thing in the world — especially if you have stick time with a really stable platform like the DJI products. Those drones almost fly themselves and don’t require constant input to maintain flight. FPV, therefore, comes with a very steep learning curve. But how best to get started?

While ordering a smaller FPV drone from BETAFPV, I came across the X-Knight 360 drone and couldn’t find any videos due to it being released last month. That changed when NURK uploaded a first-impressions video on the drone earlier this week.
