Ideal Flight Performance
In the endless search for perfect performance, EMAX engineers reworked the Tinyhawk platform to maximize flight potential for confident piloting both indoors and out. and on the street.
Improved video streaming
Thanks to collaboration with experts from Rancam, the Tinyhawk 2 was equipped with the Nano 2 FPV camera, renowned for its crisp colors, wide dynamic range and clear optics. In addition, the VTX was modified with more filters and an increase in adjustable power (25/100/200 mW), which resulted in cleaner video output and increased FPV distance.
Increased power
1S / 2S HV power supply recommended by the developer. And to take full advantage of the speed potential of the drone, the FPV camera has the ability to change the tilt angle.
Redesigned impact resistance
With the advent of higher speeds, the Tinyhawk 2 frame has been reinforced to provide the necessary strength and design has been updated taking into account aerodynamic features. In addition, the quad was equipped with an active LED backlight that reacts to the position of the throttle stick, in other words, it changes its brightness depending on the aggressiveness of the flight.
Racing standard
The developer notes that the drone is built and tuned in accordance with the racing standards, and that everyone will be able to appreciate the best in the niche flight efficiency.
RTF kit
Despite the seriousness of the approach, the Tinyhawk II is available in the RTF package, which allows the novice audience to quickly enter the niche of racing drones, as it includes everything that is necessary for the implementation of dynamic flight in the first person mode.
