The new BrainFPV Radix line of flight controller and power board comes from Martin Luessi and BrainFPV. I had the opportunity to put these much anticipated boards to the test, and will cover my experiences with them, from building them into the multirotor to setting them up and flying.
In early 2018, MultiGP, a large American drone racing league announced a change in regulations derestricting the battery cell limit in races from the conventional 4 cell (4S) LiPO limit to open. This rule change has prompted some competitors to adopt 6S drone racing setups whereas others have elected to remain with 4S setups. This…
If you are interested in flying FPV then you need to learn how to solder! Even if you are buying ready to fly (RTF) gear, crashes will happen, and along the way something will break. Unless you can afford to repeatedly buy a whole new machine, you need to know how to fix it. Soldering…

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…
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…
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…
As the name implies, and FPV Drone Power Distribution Board (PDB) is a printed circuit board that is used to distribute the power from your flight battery to all different components of the multirotor. Prior to PDB’s becoming common it was necessary to connect all the different components using wire and the result often resembled…
