Finally jumped into the digital fpv pool with a sharkbyte system. This quad has taken a beating with its analog system while I learn how to fly, hopefully the sharkbyte system is as durable because I love to crash. Installation was very easy and only took a few minutes to solder the 4 wires. Firmware update, setup and osd configuration were straightforward.
Currently using cheap antennas because I had them on hand, but will be range testing with better ones soon.

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
