Which flight controller software flies better out of the box? You know, the stock, default settings, no tuning. Just flash and fly. Betaflight, INAV or maybe EmuFlight? I decided to test it on one of my 5-inch FPV drones and compare: Betaflight vs INAV, Betaflight vs EmuFlight and EmuFlight vs INAV. The results are divided…

Here is a short story of what is EmuFlight, how it differs from Betaflight and should you even care? To answer the question. Yes, you might want to take a look at it. It is different enough from Betaflight to consider it as a separate flight controller. And some people say it really fly great…

Matrix Filter will have its premiere together with EmuFlight 0.3.0 and INAV 2.5. Which of those two will happen first is still unknown. After originally developing Matrix Filter for INAV, I also ported it to EmuFlight code and already some time ago they accepted my code proposal and merged it. You have to admit, that…

FrSky does not sleep, or rather woke up, and after years of not touching the topic, released an “important” update of ACCST 2.4GHz protocol for all the compatible 2.4GHz receivers, transmitter modules, and radios: X9D Taranis, Q X7 Taranis, X10/X10S Horus, X8R, X4R, X4R-SB, XM, R-XSR, XJT and so on. What changed in ACCST 2.0.0?…

FrSky Taranis QX7 appeared on the market a few years ago and got quite a lot of popularity in its time. There were reasons for that:

When DJI did not decide to add INAV and Ardupilot to the list of the supported flight controller for the HD FPV system, some people were, at least, disappointed. Long story short: DJI OSD works only with Betaflight. Period. Until today, DJI avoids the answer to the question if INAV and Ardupilot will be supported.…

When DJI released updated firmware for their DJI FPV system with improved OSD, Betaflight users started cheering. The move to add OSD with elements like GPS position, the artificial horizon, etc is kind of puzzling. It works only with Betaflight flight controllers and a typical user of Betaflight does not really need it. After all,…

The upcoming 1.2GHz FPV system from Matek called 1G3, where VTX-1G3 is the transmitter and VRX-1G3 is the transmitter and ANT-Y1200 is the antenna, are ready for some flights! So far I have a couple of remarks: VRX-1G3 fits nicely inside a standard Far Shark receiver bay and you can use the standard bay cover…

Believe it or not, but choosing the right flight controller for your next airplane or a drone build is quite important. Yes, I know that some of you might say that hardware does not matter and your kwad will fly as good with the latest F7 flight controller as it would fly with Naze32. It…
