Diatone Roma F5 Review: The best out of the box 5 inch I've flown

23/10/2020

2 Comments

 
The Roma F5 is a new 5 inch freestyle quadcopter from longtime quad maker Diatone. Diatone have launched with a number of configurations that differ mostly by video system:
  • Diatone Roma F5 with analogue video in 4s or 6s motor kv
  • Diatone Roma F5 lite with lower cost camera and F4 flight controller in 4s only
  • Diatone Rome F5 with DJI Air Unit
  • Diatone Roma F5 with DJI Caddx Vista Unit
In this review I will cover the Diatone Roma F5 (analogue) with 6s but findings are mostly applicable across the range.

It's been way too long since I last covered a Diatone quad, 2 years in fact since I looked at the GTR249+ here, a very well put together 2.5 inch micro. With the Roma F5 they have developed and all new frame, all new motors and VTX and ESC/FC combo under the Diatone Mamba Brand. They have gone top shelf with the camera on the analogue version too, the Runcam Phoenix 2 being one of the best currently available. I'm glad that Diatone and the other premium manufacturers are focusing on freestyle oriented ready to fly rigs rather than racing rigs as I think this is where the market is - Those who are genuinely interested in racing will tend to build them up from scratch to get the exact feel they want. Freestyle rigs on the other hand a more forgiving - for the most part frames, motors and other trends have remained more stationary so you know it won't date so quickly.
