It’s been a while since I last uploaded a video to YouTube. In this video I give an update on my YouTube channel, a neat Fusion 360 tip (attaching canvas and using the calibrate feature), show an extremely basic process of designing something in Fusion 360, sending it to Simplify3D slicer then printing on the 3D Printer.  I will be posting more videos on YouTube so please subscribe to my channel as it definitely puts wind in my sails and influences the type of content I create.

(This is part of a multi-part series on building a FPV mini 240mm quadcopter)

We're almost done with all the parts needed to build my FPV -- just a few more before we start assembling the quad.  I ordered the Fat Shark Dominator V2 Goggles and those have arrived. I needed some 5.8GHz antennas for the receiver on the googles and for the transmitter.   There are lots of videos on YouTube that instruct you on how to build your own but I wanted to buy a set ready made.

We're almost done with all the parts needed to build my FPV -- just a few more before we start building the quad.  I ordered the Fat Shark Dominator V2 Goggles that will be used to fly the FPV.   The video from the FPV camera will be wirelessly sent from the transmitter with OSD telemetry data superimposed to these goggles.  Can't wait to experience it!

Since I'm building an FPV (first person view) quadcopter it relies on transmitting video from the FPV camera from Part 5 (I'll be covering the goggles and antennas in a future post).

DIY: Building a Mini Quadcopter Part 9 – 12 Amp PRO RapidESC (SimonK)

To power the SunnySky X2204S 2300kv Motors you need an ESC (Electronic Speed Controller).   For this,  I've selected the next generation speed controller from Quadrysteria.  They state the manufacturer of this ESC is the same as the one that made the popular BlueSeries and features newer, higher-quality MOSFETs that run cooler and offer higher peak current -- apparently these ESC are so fast that you can double your PI gains.
