Build your own FPV drone from scratch and fly it — from simulator to real-world acro flying in 5 days. For hobbyists, filmmakers, tech enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to go deeper than ready-to-fly drones.
A tightly structured 5-day programme — you build a drone and learn to fly it in acro mode
Not just flying — building, tuning, and understanding every component of the machine
Who want to build and understand drones, not just fly them. If you've ever wanted to solder and configure your own aircraft, this is your course.
Who want the FPV perspective for music videos, weddings, and sports. The cinematic shots only an FPV drone can achieve — low, fast, and immersive.
Transition from sim racing to real FPV flying. If you're comfortable with Liftoff or DRL Simulator, this course gets you airborne in the real world.
Building FPV skills for tactical applications. Hands-on drone assembly knowledge and manual flight proficiency for real-world operational contexts.
