Hey guys,
I am looking for a good DJI HD twig quad. I have found a few like geprc's but noting more that that and flywoos. I currently have the DJI avata and want to stay with the DJI HD system. also are twigs good for outdoor flying and learning freestyle?

Thanks yall

Twigs by their very nature are lightweight, and they get by on crash resistance solely by their lightness limiting inertia.

For freestyle (inc learning) nothing beats a good 5" quad, IF that is you have the space and no legality issues.

Need to tell a little more about where you intend to fly and over what terrain (Grass, Concrete, etc)

I have a soccer field near my house with a playground thats where I will be flying mostly. and near a super sketch old mall

I am also looking at the crux 35 hd https://www.getfpv.com/happymodel-crux35...-nano.html

do you want a BNF or do you mind building? @daddylovesquads on IG is a small boutique that offers lots of micro analog and HD builds and frames. He's also a very solid part of the community who is easily reachable with questions. Also, feel free to contact me on IG @bigbeardfpv and I'm happy to help you figure things out as well.

Here's a micro HD build I did with one of his frames - https://rotorbuilds.com/build/29783

I started last year and went straight to 5" and I don't think it's a great platform for freestyle. I even still have my Nazgul v2 that I've only replaced an arm on, kind of surprised thats the only sustained damage.Though I've since built several other 5s that are my go to.

Recently I've done a 3.5 and a 3" and I'll admit they're a blast to fly as well. Though I still prefer the 5" overall.

i believe the crux35 is a very versatile quad and a good choice for begginners.
replacement parts are relatively inexpensive, it can be flown as cruiser, freestyler or for racing on the right battery. the flighttime can be very long, there is also some range possible.

I am looking for a bnf with either frsky d8 or d16 or dji reciver.

or should I bite the bullet and get the tiny hawk 2 freestyle and add DJI HD later on? the tiny hawk route would be cheaper for rn.

what means "rn"?

at this time. and that I have given myself a set budget and some of the quads I have looked at are more than my budget.  I was given the great gift of DJI fpv system by my parents with the avata and want to stick with the HD digital system

I'm guessing rn = Right Now.

As for your toothpick with DJI, how about a Babyhawk 2 HD - Comes with Digital VTX and FrSky
BetaFPV X-Knight 3 - Comes with Digital VTX and FrSky
GEPRC Smart 35 HD
