Custom Developed. Precisely Tuned. Configured for the Mission.
FPV systems have very different requirements depending on the application, including flight characteristics, propulsion, range, flight time, video transmission, and control. A high-performance system is therefore not created simply by selecting high-quality components, but by consistently matching and tuning them to work together.
We develop, build, and configure custom FPV drones and VTOL systems for a wide range of mission profiles – from highly agile freestyle copters and cinematic platforms to efficient long-range, fixed-wing, and VTOL systems.
Each system is treated as a complete platform. Frame, propulsion, power supply, flight controller, sensors, radio link, video transmission, and firmware are selected according to the intended application, integrated into the platform, and then precisely configured.
The objective is not a standardized build, but a technically optimized complete system with defined flight characteristics, high reliability, and optimal performance.
FPV Systems by Application Profile
Freestyle FPV
Freestyle drones must respond quickly and precisely to control inputs while remaining controllable across a wide performance range. The frame, motors, propellers, ESC, flight controller, and power supply are therefore dimensioned according to the desired flight characteristics.
Particular attention is given to the subsequent tuning of the flight controller. Filters, PID control, rates, and other parameters are individually adapted to the specific platform. The result is a precisely tuned FPV copter with direct control response, controlled power delivery, and reproducible flight characteristics.
Cinematic FPV
Cinematic FPV systems have different requirements in terms of design and tuning. The focus is on controllable movements, smooth and predictable flight characteristics, and a performance profile suitable for professional camera operation.
Depending on the application, we develop compact FPV copters as well as larger platforms designed to carry action cameras and various payloads. Camera weight, center of gravity, total weight, propulsion, and required flight time are taken into account during the initial system design.
Camera weight and payload
Total weight and center of gravity
Motor and propeller combination
Power reserves
Flight time
Vibration characteristics
Desired flight characteristics
Digital or analog video transmission
Here too, generic standard values are not simply applied. Filter and PID settings are specifically tuned to the actual platform. The result is a cinematic FPV system that combines controlled camera movements with the dynamics and freedom of movement characteristic of FPV flight.
Long Range FPV
For long-range systems, the technical focus shifts from maximum agility toward efficiency, range, flight time, and reliable communication. All components must be carefully matched accordingly.
Motors, propellers, battery system, and overall weight are selected to provide the required performance while maintaining the highest possible efficiency. At the same time, the radio link, antenna system, video transmission, GPS, and navigation functions play a central role.
Efficient motor and propeller combinations
LiPo or Li-Ion power systems
GPS
Telemetry
ExpressLRS
Optimized antenna systems
Digital FPV video transmission
Analog FPV video transmission
GPS Rescue
iNav navigation functions
Depending on the specific system, Betaflight or iNav is used for long-range platforms. iNav is particularly suitable when advanced GPS, navigation, or Return-to-Home functions are required.
VTOL Systems
Vertical Take-Off Combined with Efficient Fixed-Wing Flight
VTOL systems – Vertical Take-Off and Landing – combine the ability to take off and land vertically with the aerodynamic advantages of a fixed-wing aircraft. This creates platforms that do not require a conventional runway while still achieving high efficiency during forward flight.
These systems are particularly suitable for applications where extended range and longer flight times need to be combined with flexible take-off and landing capabilities.
Developing and configuring a VTOL system requires precise coordination between the airframe, propulsion systems, servos, flight controller, power supply, sensors, radio link, and flight control software.
Our VTOL systems are configured using iNav. This includes the behavior during vertical take-off and landing, the transition between hover and forward flight, as well as the flight characteristics during efficient fixed-wing operation.
Betaflight & iNav
We exclusively use Betaflight and iNav for our FPV drones and VTOL systems. The firmware is selected according to the platform, flight profile, and required functionality.
Betaflight
We primarily use Betaflight for conventional multirotor FPV systems where particularly direct, precise, and dynamic flight characteristics are the main priority.
Configuration is performed individually for each platform and, depending on the system, includes:
Flight controller configuration
Motor and ESC configuration
Receiver and radio configuration
Failsafe settings
Flight modes
OSD configuration
GPS and GPS Rescue
Filter configuration
PID tuning
Rates
Blackbox analysis
System-specific fine-tuning
iNav
iNav is primarily used for long-range, fixed-wing, and VTOL platforms when more advanced GPS, navigation, and flight guidance functions are required.
Depending on the platform, configuration can include:
Flight controller and sensors
GPS configuration
Flight modes
Navigation
Return-to-Home
Failsafe configuration
OSD and telemetry
Fixed-wing configuration
VTOL configuration
Propulsion and servo assignment
Control parameters
Filter settings
With iNav, parameters are also not simply adopted from generic configurations. They are specifically tuned to the individual aircraft platform, its geometry, weight, propulsion system, and desired flight characteristics.
Professional Filter & PID Tuning
Precise Tuning Instead of Standard Values
High-quality components alone do not guarantee an optimally performing FPV system. Frame geometry, rigidity, motors, propellers, mechanical resonances, weight, payload, and the overall construction all influence the control behavior of a drone.
Individual tuning of filtering and PID control is therefore an essential part of our system configuration. The objective is to specifically reduce unwanted disturbances and resonances without unnecessarily limiting the control performance of the platform.
The PID controller is then tuned so that the drone responds precisely to control inputs, reliably maintains its attitude, and provides controlled and predictable flight characteristics.
Depending on the platform, Blackbox recordings can be used to analyze the actual behavior of the system and specifically optimize filter and control parameters.
Precise control response
High control accuracy
Optimized filtering
Controlled response characteristics
Reduced vibrations
Smooth motor operation
Thermally optimized operation
Reproducible flight characteristics
The firmware is therefore not simply configured. It is specifically tuned to the actual hardware and intended application profile.
Digital & Analog FPV Video Transmission
Depending on the application, platform, and technical requirements, our FPV systems can be equipped with either digital or analog video transmission.
Digital Video Transmission
Digital FPV systems provide high image quality and a detailed video feed. They are particularly suitable for applications where image quality, situational visibility, and modern digital transmission are key requirements.
Analog Video Transmission
Analog FPV systems continue to offer specific advantages and can represent a technically suitable solution depending on the intended application profile. The decisive factor is not a general preference for a particular transmission technology, but its suitability for the specific application.
In addition to the video transmitter itself, system integration also takes antenna selection, antenna positioning, power supply, cable routing, and potential sources of electromagnetic interference within the platform into account.
The video and control links are considered as parts of an integrated communication system and are coordinated accordingly.
System Integration Instead of Simple Component Assembly
Our approach goes beyond simply assembling individual components. A professional FPV system is created only when all components are technically matched, integrated, and subsequently tuned as a complete system.
We therefore consider the entire system chain:
Frame → Propulsion → ESC → Flight Controller → Sensors → Power Supply → Radio Link → Video Transmission → Antenna System → Firmware → Filter & PID Tuning
During component selection, factors such as total weight, current consumption, power reserves, thermal load, available installation space, mechanical characteristics, electromagnetic influences, and the desired flight profile are taken into account.
Once mechanical and electrical integration is complete, the platform is fully configured and fine-tuned. The result is an FPV system in which hardware and software work together as an optimized complete system.
Custom FPV Solutions
No two application profiles are identical. We therefore do not develop and configure FPV systems according to a fixed standard. The starting point is always the technical requirements and the desired flight characteristics.
Depending on the specific application, different priorities can be defined:
Freestyle FPV
Cinematic FPV
Long Range FPV
Fixed Wing
VTOL
Extended flight time
Long range
High agility
Optimized payload capacity
Compact design
Digital video transmission
Analog video transmission
GPS and navigation functions
Custom radio and antenna configurations
From component selection and system assembly to integration, firmware configuration, filter tuning, and PID optimization, we create an FPV platform fully tailored to the intended application.
