Recently, one of my friends asked me about the recipe for the BEST FPV Drone. At first glance, it seems that Excelvan X218S has all the main ingredients. It features a robust 3K carbon fiber frame, high-quality FPV camera, long-range VTX, powerful 2500KV brushless motors, and a versatile F4 flight controller with BetaFlight OSD.
In order to be ready for top-level competitions, the powerful 2306 2500KV brushless motors are matched with 3-leaf propellers. The motors are driven by a 4-in-1 30A BLHeli-S ESC (electronic speed controller).
In front of the drone is located a 600TVL camera with a 1/3″ SONY Super HAD II image sensor and 2.3mm lens (145-degree FOV). The camera is paired with a 48CH 5.8G VTX (wireless video transmitter). According to your needs, you can switch between 25, 100, and 600mW broadcast power.
Due to the large top plate, in addition to the on-board FPV camera, you are able to install your own DVR camera (like the GoPro Session).
