    RC CoD Hunter Killer Drone

    So I had an idea to take the hunter killer drone score streak from call of duty and turn it into a real life RC plane.

    HDMI Out & Building an FPV IRL Streaming Drone

    I'm new to fpv and I'm currently planning on building out a project where I need HDMI video out. What I'm finding is that most things fpv are analog with only HDMI in on goggles, unless you're going with something like lightbridge, but then you're limited to only flying dji gear right? I have a...

    Gremlin Review

    I was considering buying a gremlin when I saw a review on the power pack g v2 saying that it didn't work properly on the gremlin frames. I was wondering if this is still an issue? If this is still an issue is it possible to fix it?
