FPV College

During the training, we will review the principles of FPV drones, learn the basics of controlling them, practice using the FPV simulator, explore the process of assembling and configuring the drones, and finally learn how to control your own FPV drone.  

Participants can expect a 12 to 15-hour programme, divided into 4 or 5 different live meetings live.

The training is for people aged 16 and over., participants aged 14-15 (inclusive) must be accompanied by an adult. 

        Programme:

• Meeting 1 - During the meeting, participants will learn the basics of FPV drone theory. Participants will learn how such drones work and what they consist of, and will be introduced to the capabilities of FPV drones and their different types. Participants will also start to learn about the specifics of controlling FPV drones. 
• Meeting 2 - Participants will improve their piloting skills in a virtual FPV simulator and learn how different flight modes work. During the meeting we will touch the topic of soldering, explain the theory - what and how. 
• Meeting 3 - Participants will first learn how to solder and then apply their knowledge to build their first drones. During the meeting we will reveal the subtleties of FPV drone parts and introduce participants to different drone systems and their operating principles.  
• Meeting 4 - The main goal of the meeting will be to get a drone you have built into the air. We will start with the setup, and once it is done, we will go flying. There will also be a debriefing with tips and pointers on what's next. 
• Meeting 5 - This meeting will be restricted to participants who have chosen individual drone kits, as we will need to spend more time on the construction and configuration of these drones. 

Each participant will be provided with a drone kit of their choice during the training. The aim of the training is to take home an assembled drone kit and the knowledge of how to use it. Participants will be able to choose from 2 possible options:

"Whoop" drone kit with FPV video system:

„Whoop" drones - a lot lighterand smaller than standard drones with 5-inch propellers, offer the same control capabilities (flying in acro mode), making it ideal for learning to control large FPV drones. They have exactly the same parts as standard sized FPV drones, but they are smaller. Their small size is ideal for learning to fly safely, especially indoors, and such drones are also highly impact resistant. These drones may seem toy-like at first glance, but they should not be considered toys. They consist of serious components, are controlled by a serious radio and have a 5.8ghz video system, and are configured with serious applications that support advanced features. In summary, the whoop drone is a smaller version of a large FPV drone that allows affordable access to this modern hobby. 

With our whoop kit, you can fly at home and in the yard. You can enjoy 4-5 minutes of flight on one battery, and the kit comes with up to 4 batteries. You will be able to control the drone with FPV goggles, directly from the drone's camera, making you feel like you're sitting inside the drone like a real pilot.
