The JohnnyFPV Banshee 8" Ready to Fly Cinema Drone is a high performance FPV drone brought to life by world-renowned JohnnyFPV. Centered around the RED Komodo cinema camera, this drone takes image quality to the next level while keeping the performance and speed of a traditional FPV racing drone.

Johnny's passion for FPV flying is as strong as ever, but his flying style and requirements have continued to evolve over the years. Through this hard work, he made it into the “big screen” having worked with renowned brands and feature films. With this in mind, he wanted to work on a new concept for a frame that meets all of his FPV drone needs and delivers the best quality while flying with a Cinema Camera. 

The JohnnyFPV Banshee 8" drone is engineered (design by Sam Sanford) to scale up the flight feel of a 5” drone to keep the versatility and creative potential of an acrobatic drone while offering a product that looks and performs professionally on set.

With the ability to carry cinema cameras at 92mph+, the JohnnyFPV Banshee 8" develops incredible speed with various payloads, and focuses on the maneuverability of Pro Cameras by choosing the right powertrain combination for the perfect balance of speed, agility and flight time.

Note: The RTF Drone does not include optional accessories like Gimbal, Cinema Camera, Batteries, FPV Goggles, Radio Controller, etc. These items will need to be selected in this bundle and purchased in addition to the RTF drone if needed.

PRE-TUNED AND PRE-SETUP

The JohnnyFPV Banshee RTF is assembled in the USA by professional drone builders at GetFPV. Each drone goes through a rigorous QC process and is individually tuned and test flown before shipment.
