How To Fly A FPV Racing Drone – Lesson 5 – Putting It All Together

by Jose
this is lesson 5 of my series how to fly fpv multirotors using fpv free-rider as the simulator that we're learning in as a reminder as always i'm using the default settings here and I've got throttle 0 at bottom configured which is how most transmitters have it set I'm going to click on the desert and let's get started on this lesson up till now we've covered the sort of basics of manoeuvring your multi rotor in fpv we've got altitude control y'all control to face the direction you want to go roll to keep the car horizon level […]

Long Range FPV Racing Drone – Part 1 Build

by Jose
Hi everyone, my name is Mirko, and today we are going to see how to build a long range drone. I thought of this build that tried to cut costs without sacrificing reliability. in the description you will find all the links and their ratings. For a long range build, the ideal frames are those with the battery on top. In this way we have enough space to conveniently install all components. The diagonal must be at least 250 mm so that 6 "propellers can be mounted. I chose this realacc X6R because it offers good design solutions at low […]

FLIR Thermal Imaging Drone Captures Structure Fire

https://youtu.be/SmvOPgSsLhw Okay, so I’m walking around inside the structure. It’s kind of weird, as I’m, looking around to think that in a few hours, none of this is even going to exist anymore, Roswell, flight test crew. Here today, with our good friends from Tualatin Valley, Fire and Rescue, they’re gonna do a burn to learn that house back there. You’re either gonna burn that thing to the ground awesome. Our goal was to provide an aerial perspective on the exercise using a multi rotor drone equipped with a FLIR thermal-imaging camera for the firefighters. The day began with a […]

FLIR CEO Andy Teich on Black Hornet and Thermal Imaging for Drones

https://youtu.be/f6xPy0Eeh-Q Well as well flight test crew here today with Andrew teach, who’s, the president and CEO of FLIR systems, and we’re sitting in the lobby of their headquarters right here in Wilsonville Oregon. How are you doing today, Andrew ah well, Patrick it’s, been just over a year now, since Lear entered the civilian drone space, with their partnership with DJI to produce the zenmuse XT? How has that been, since you & # 39? Ve entered this market, it’s. Really. Quite amazing, though, that when consumer drones hit the market we saw, this is a huge opportunity because […]

Drone Pilot Position

by Jose
https://youtu.be/6IjOPPw1JE8 So one thing I’d like to talk about is a pilot, location and relationship to the drone. While you’re flying it, there’s, certain things you got to keep in mind, and mainly that is how you judge distance and how you can see how close something is to another object. Now your perspective has something gets further away. It’s harder to judge how close it is to something else like when this drone is flying away in this next to Iraq, and I’m photographing rock climbers on it. If I’m, if I have the drone here and the rock […]

How To Fly A FPV Racing Drone – Lesson 2 – Slow Forward Flight

welcome back to lesson two of my series on how to fly in a crow mode fpv using fvd free writer real quick i'm just going to show you my settings i went over these in the first video default settings and throttle 0 at bottom let's go ahead into the desert track and i'm in accra mode low rates and the fpv camera in the last lesson we talked about using the throttle to manage your altitude and we did that in a hover but the thrust vector of the copter changes as you pitch forward and back and […]
