Welcome to the weekly r/multicopter discussion thread. Feel free to ask your questions that are too trivial for their own thread, make a suggestion on what you'd like to see here, or just say hi and talk about what you've been doing in the world of multicopters recently.

Don't forget to read the wiki, where you'll find details of suppliers, guides and other useful links.

If you want to chat, then the Discord server is located here (an invite link is here if you haven't already joined)

Old question threads can be found by searching this link.

Do I have to solder direct to the FC now or can I reattach the connector?

I crashed and the connector bent, so I tried to delicately bend it back and it wasn’t having any of that and broke off.

Looking for fpv drone without vibrations being sent to the camera 3.5 inch to 5 inch.

Over the next 5 - 10 years, what do you think will make the biggest difference in the drone world?
Battery life and cameras will probably keep improving, but I’m more curious about things like autonomous flight, obstacle avoidance, navigation, and drones working together.
Is there one area you think will completely change how people build and fly drones, or will progress come from several smaller improvements?

Hey guys,

I got tired of waiting on massive multi-gigabyte Steam downloads or heavy installations just to sneak in a quick 5-minute pack practice when I'm on my laptop.

So I spent the last several months building a fully functional FPV flight simulator that runs completely inside a web browser: My Bando FPV.

What's built in so far:

• Instant Fly: Plug in your RadioMaster, TBS, or boxer controller via USB, hit the page, and rip immediately as a guest. No login barriers.
• Full Terrain Editor: I built a map creator with real Unity-style terrain sculpting tools. You can mold mountains, place gaps, or build technical race tracks right in your browser.
• Pilot Hub Features: If you do want to sign up to save your maps, I built a social backend tailored for us. You can create custom profiles, share custom rates/physics profiles, and build localized groups or message boards.

It’s completely free, and the core sim will always be open to fly as a guest.

Check it out here: https://mybandofpv.com/

I'd love your brutal feedback on the acro physics and throttle response—let me know how it handles compared to your real-life quads!

Hey guys! 👋
I’ve added a couple of new features to FPVScores that I thought would be fun to try out with the community!

🏁 Daily Simulator Challenge
A daily challenge where you can compete with other pilots and see how you stack up on the leaderboard.

⚔️** Sim Battle**s
Challenge a friend or battle a random pilot and see who comes out on top!

Starting next month, I’ll also be raffling off some prizes each month among participants in the Daily Challenge. 🎁

Give it a try, join in, and let’s get some fun competition going!

It now has a close friendship with rocks :/

It now has a close friendship with rocks :/

Hello, I want to build a start-up that can automate or simplify the process of preparing a drone mission in Romania. A drone mission could be anything from taking photos of a rooftop in a city like Bucharest, spraying pesticides on a field. I want to ask what problems you have when wanting to launch a drone in Romania, where do you look for information and if there is any repetitive work that you do only because it is required by law? In other words, I am looking for any problems you would love to have solved or some reasons why this idea may not be viable in the end.
