What Makes FPV Drones So Interesting?

FPV (First Person View) drones offer an immersive flying experience that puts you in the pilot’s seat. Unlike traditional GPS drones, FPV drones stream a live video feed directly into goggles, giving you a real-time view from the drone’s perspective.

This creates an intense, high-adrenaline experience focused on agility and control — not just hovering or photography. FPV flying is fast, hands-on, and incredibly rewarding.

What Do I Need to Get Started?

• Radio Controller (with ELRS)

  Your controller is your main flying tool. Choose one with ExpressLRS (ELRS) for top performance, low latency, and reliable range.

  We recommend the RadioMaster Pocket ELRS Controller — compact, beginner-friendly, upgradeable, and modern.

• Nomad Gemini Dual-Band Module (Recommended)

  This optional upgrade adds both 2.4GHz and 900MHz frequencies for better range and link redundancy. Ideal for long-range or interference-heavy environments, though not required for beginners.

• FPV Simulator (Liftoff on Steam)

  Start with a simulator like Liftoff to practice safely and build muscle memory before flying real drones.

FPV Goggles — See What Your Drone Sees

FPV goggles are essential — they display your drone’s live camera feed. We recommend the DJI Goggles 3 with the DJI O4 Pro Camera System for the best image quality, low latency, and reliability.

Start Flying

Once confident in the simulator, get a durable beginner drone and start flying in open spaces. Keep line-of-sight, practice basic maneuvers, and always prioritize safety.
