Have a look at the specs of the Freestyle KV1700 (max 937W) and KV2400 (max 744W) motor options to see the limitation of the 4S packs.
Another quick point: the Pagodas 2-pack that Emax sells are not the same that come included with the Buzz. The RHCP Pagoda that is included is much heavier and encapsulated into a very think plastic case, while the 2-pack only have a bit of thermal wrap on the upper two plates.
Now regarding how the quad handles, like many video reviews out there pointed (I am sure you watched them all before spending your $$s) it's a heavy bird built for freestyle, but get one and check for yourself. :) It's my first 5" bird moving up from Tinyhawk Freestyle and others in that class so all I can tell it feels a bit like swinging a baseball bat vs flipping breakfast pancakes. It's a whole new ball game and I love it! Starting from scratch with this new class let's me go straight to 6S packs since I have zero 4S laying around. Get yourself a couple 1300mAh 6s and maybe a couple lighter 1000mAh 6S or 1300mAh 5S to start with. Also get a few spare props from get go since you have the benefit of combined shipping. I already bent a couple on landing. Have fun and fly responsibly! This thing in no longer a Tinyhawk.
Closing thought: when it comes to putting my trust into a flying mini-mower I go with the well known brand: Emax Tinyhawks have been head and shoulders above competition for me -- smooth and controlled -- and the Buzz seems to be building on that.

Had this drone for 2 months now so had plenty of time to form my opinion.
Built quality, frame, soldering etc - fantastic, can't fault it.
Use of XM+ , not a fan of.
Use of 200mW VTX only, not the best choice for a freestyle drone, at least 600mW would be good, 800mW better.
Use of ECO range motors (2306/2400kW), honestly can't wait to get rid of them. The amount of play in them is borderline ridiculous, three out of four had massive play from the box and one is slowly catching up with the rest. Quality control on the motor assembly line should be seriously looked into.
All things considered I would still buy it again as it flies really well and suits my flying style.

After a week of testing this rig I can honestly say I love it. It flys so smooth no matter what prop Iâve used. The new scimitar props are very smooth and make the quad docile but very controllable. The Avan flows however I think have some type of oscillation above 50% throttle. I think it sounds like d term oscillation. But still flyâs smooth and bit peppier on the flows. I also flew it on the Avan long range 6â props. The sound the quad make with those props... wow I love it. A lot of float with the Avan LR props as well. The quad is a bit heavy especially with. GoPro session 5 on top but not so heavy that it wonât perform. It definitely performs! I will continue to test prop and rate combos and may mess with the pids a little on the Avan flows. But stock settings at the moment Iâm preferring the new gemfan 5146.6 props, very smooth and responsive like the Avan flows but a bit more flight time and no oscillation sound when Iâm hard on the throttle.
