Quick Tip: Stop losing props on your micro quad
Do you have a whoop that keeps throwing props? Here’s how to fix it.
Multirotor Drone Decision Flowchart
Interactive CLICK flowchart for product or comparison matrix links. FPV = First person view. Bind & fly (BNF) multirotors include an onboard receiver but require you purchase and bind a seperate controller. Plug and play (PNP) planes require you purchase a seperate controller and receiver to plug into the flight controller then bind. Flowcart inspired…
All About Multirotor Drone Radio Transmitters and Receivers
One of the crucial pieces of equipment necessary for flying a multirotor is a FPV Drone Radio Transmitter (Tx) and Radio Receiver (Rx). FPV Drone Radio Transmitters An FPV Drone Radio Transmitter is an electronic device that uses radio signals to transmit commands wirelessly via a set radio frequency over to the Radio Receiver, which…
All About Multirotor FPV Drone Battery Chargers
FPV racing and freestyle drones are power-hungry machines! At a minimum there are 4 high-speed motors driving propellers at tens of thousands of revolutions per minute (RPM). The power systems on these drones operate at voltages ranging from 4.2 volts (v) for the micro drones, to 25 v for the high-powered mini quads. Volts are…
All About Multirotor Drone Batteries
An FPV Drone Battery is the foundational component of a quadcopter and must be considerately selected to achieve an ideal balance between performance and flight time. Lithium batteries are the most common battery chemistry used to power quadcopters due to their high energy densities and high discharge capabilities. This article will discuss the differences between…
All About Multirotor Drone FPV Goggles and Monitors
Drone FPV Goggles or Screens are the devices used by pilots to observe the live video feeds being transmitted from their quadcopters. FPV viewing devices come in a variety of sizes, feature sets, and price points. It is crucial to choose an FPV viewing device fit for your application as it is essentially your interface…
All About Multirotor Drone FPV Cameras
The Drone FPV Camera in your multirotor is the key component that allows you to enjoy that ‘First Person View’. It makes sense to take some time and ensure that you choose the camera that will best suit the type of multirotor that you own, and flying that you would like to do. There are…
All About Multirotor Drone FPV Video Receivers
A Drone FPV Video Receiver (VRx) is a crucial part of the FPV system! Drones equipped with first person view (FPV) systems will typically have a small, simple camera mounted on the front. The video signal from the camera is sent to the video transmitter where it is formatted, amplified and broadcasted. This video information…
All About Multirotor Drone FPV Antennas
The Drone FPV Antenna is perhaps the most overlooked FPV component. However, without antennas wireless communication between the video transmitter and video receiver or radio and radio receiver would not be conceivably possible. This article will serve to outline the function of an antenna as well as the properties of different antenna types. What is…
All about Multirotor Drone FPV Video Transmitters
A Drone FPV Video Transmitter (VTx) is the workhorse of the FPV experience. Over the last several years, we have seen a huge technological boost in how they perform, and the power output capable of the units, all in an increasingly smaller and smaller form factor. Being mounted on the multicopter side of the business,…
