Besides the frame and motors, the flight controller (FC) is an essential part of an FPV drone. Flight controllers are the brain of drones, they control the speed of each motor based on the input of various sensors and the pilot’s stick movements. BetaFPV has many FCs, including Brushed, Brushless, Standard, AIO, 1S-6S, with/without a built-in receiver, and more. BETAFPV Flight Controller Series is suitable for CineWhoop, Toothpick, Racing, Freestyle, and Long-Range FPV quadcopters.
