FPV drone building and flying

FPV stands for “First Person View”, and it refers to the practice of piloting an remote controlled aircraft through a form of VR headset. This allows the pilot to have a truly immersive flying experience, and is why I’ve fallen in love with it. (it also makes it much easier - imagine trying to drive you car while being outside of it !). FPV started in the 2010’s with remote airplanes, but it really took of in the 2020’s with quadcopters (most often simply referred as “drones”). Modern racing and freestyle quadcopters have incredible agility, they can easily go above 100km/h, and more importantly they can accelerate from 0 to 100 in less than a second. All this power right at your fingertip is really hard to control at first, but this difficulty is also what keeps it interesting in the long run.
