As the technology behind FPV quadcopters becomes more advanced and less expensive, the number of enterprising hobbyists buying into the sport increases proportionately. Generally, the natural progression through the hobby involves a new pilot buying a ready-to-fly drone, flying and (often) crashing it, and then deciding to build one out of hand-picked parts. This can…
Drone battery safety is a fundamental aspect of the hobby. A standard four cell lithium polymer (LiPo) 1500mAh battery at full charge stores a massive 25Wh (watt hours) of energy. When damaged or incorrectly charged, these batteries can go up in flames. In this article, I will discuss drone battery safety and how to safely…
[frames] Interactive CLICK table for product pages. Data sourced from product descriptions. The frame of an FPV multirotor drone plays an outsized role in its dynamic experience. Multirotor drone frames can be roughly split into two distinct categories; racing and freestyle. Racing frames prioritise light weight and aerodynamic efficiency for maximum speed, whilst freestyle frames…
The new Lumenier JB2407-11 1750Kv Bardwell motor is a partnership in development between both Lumenier, known for their high quality, efficient motors and Joshua “Know it All” Bardwell. One would be safe in assuming that these motors have a high attention to detail, but what makes these motors stand out among the very large crowd…
The POPO (pop on, pop off) Quick Swap system has spent a full year on the market for operators all around the world to use an and enjoy. The Lumenier ZIP POPO Pro series of motors sports the second generation of this system, and has the durability, efficiency, and power to compete. This system has…
