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.

This is how Horizon Hobby describes it:

"The Inductrix FPV Pro is the high-performance, micro FPV drone taking indoor racing performance to the next level. Building on the popular Inductrix platform, the Inductrix FPV Pro answers the call to those seeking heightened performance in a lightened, more durable profile. A significant feature is the Betaflight configurable flight controller which provides you the freedom to adjust all flight parameters, rates, and gains to fit your flying style. A new frame design with added reinforcements improves durability, making crashes worry-free. A new and improved camera and VTX combo flaunt a smaller monopole and lighter profile, while giving you more frequencies and bands to choose from. The included removable canopy gives the micro racer a sleek new design and color scheme without hindering weight or performance. The included 200mAh battery offers ample flight times, increased by the lighter overall profile. With the Bind-N-Fly completion level, all you have to do is bind a compatible Spektrum transmitter and you're off to the races.

Improved Frame: Based on the Inductrix FPV, the updated frame design boasts added reinforcements in addition to a much stronger material.

Betaflight Configurable: The F3 flight controller comes pre-flashed and tuned with Betaflight firmware, yet allows a pilot to adjust all flight characteristics, modes, rates and gains to their preference.

High Performance 25mW camera/VTX: Impressive optics and integrated 25mW VTX with monopole antenna offer performance and durability in a sleek and lightweight profile.

Extremely Lightweight: Even with all the improvements, it comes in lighter than the original Inductrix FPV.

High Speed Motors: 19,000Kv + motors offer rapid throttle response and high top speed while maintaining stability.

New Canopy: New canopy offers essential protection for flight controller and components, while staying unobtrusive and extremely lightweight.

BNF® Completion: No soldering or tinkering necessary, high performance right out-of-the-box."

I plan to get the Blade Inductrix Switch Air as soon as it comes out, so stay tuned for that!
