FPV Drone Lovers and Purchase Decisions (part 2)

Even though the frame, the motor and the flight controller might be the most important parts of the fpv drone, but as we all know, a drone is a high-tech product that made of many complicated parts, a loss of a little piece of the part might cause fatal troubles to your drone. To make sure enjoying the most smooth and safest flight, it’s recommended to check your drone every time it ended a long flight and every time before it took off. Here are more drone component that you might be interested, and you can also share with us about your fun drone experience.

4. Propellers

If you choose to use a certain type of frame for your drone, then you must be careful what type of propellers you buy because they must match the drone’s frame. Make sure they are a good fit.

5. Batteries

Consider the type and the capacity of the battery you choose to buy. Most of them are Li-Po batteries but their power differs. We also recommend to purchase the rechargeable lipo battery with the lipo battery charger since it’s more economical and environmentally friendly.

6. Connectors

You will need the following lengths of connectors:

· 3.5 mm to link the motors and the ESCs.

· 4.5 mm to use for the drone’s power distribution board.

*The power distribution board is the one that connects the battery to the ESCs.

7. RC Receiver

As long as you have a transmitter you will most likely have a receiver as well that you can mount on the drone. Nowadays, many remote controllers can also be connected to the smartphone APP. Also, to enable the transmission of all the images and videos, make sure to also add a nice fpv antenna which will of great use.

8. Mounting Pad

This element lowers the impact of vibrations and it improves the drone’s overall flight. If you use your drone to take photos and videos, this tool is very important to have.

9. Camera and Micro SD Card

To take photos as well as videos during the drone’s flight, you will need to attach a camera mini size to the aerial vehicle. We recommend you to purchase the best 4K camera you can afford if your original drone package did not come with a mini camera. 

FPV Drone Lovers and Purchase Decisions (part 1)

Unmanned aerial vehicles exist since decades ago but these tools have gained a lot of popularity over the last couple of years due to small commercial drones. RC drones are probably the best

ones on the market due to their agile motors and for the fact they are can shot amazing images as well as excellent videos during their flight. If you are interested in RC drone but you are just an entry beginner, you should aware that the UAV world is not as simple as the normal toys and you have lots of things to keep in mind.

Here are all the essential items and components you need to create your own exquisite FPV drone:

1. The Frame

There are two alternatives you can choose from when it comes to your drone’s frame. For starters, you can make your own fpv frame or you can purchase it online. According to drone enthusiasts, one of the best options are the carbon fiber frame as carbon fiber is a very durable but not heavy material so that your drone will be anti-crash. If you want to create it yourself, you will need several materials as well as basic engineering knowledge but the overall process is not that hard.

2. Motors

The standard drone requires 4 motors in total. A more complex drone like an octocopter needs, as you can easily guess from its name, eight motors to be able to fly. Most people recommend the use of brushless motor because these are lighter, especially when considering the battery. Basically, most of the advanced drone nowadays will choose the brushless motor.

3. Electronic Speed Controls

These are crucial for your drone's functionality because they are in control of the way the power is directed towards the motors. The number of ESCs varied depending on the drone’s number of arms. In all, a good quality flight controller is quite essential for the best flight experience.

Of course, these three parts can definitely not complete your drone DIY process, but they are the very basic and essential component that you should notice and make sure to choose the qualified models. For more RC drone parts and component, keep watching.
