Bidirectional DSHOT & RPM Filtering – Is It Really Necessary?
There is a group of people who think that the RPM Filter is the best thing to happen to flight controllers and quadcopters since the sliced bread. Perhaps. I’m more inclined to believe that RPM Filter is just an example of good functionality. But it will not be about that, so let’s go back to…

How to choose motors for drones – especially 7-inch FPV quadcopters
One of the mistakes pilots makes when they build their first drone is they use too small motors. People think that if a motor works fine with 5-inch props, it will work with 7-inch props as well. After all, both have plenty of power and power is the key to everything. It’s not true. Power…

Brushed or brushless – RC motor dilemma
You want to fly, you need a motor. Electric, internal combustion, jet, ion, gravity. It does not matter. And since gravity engines are not invented yet, ion has no place in atmosphere and jet or internal combustion are kind of non-practical for multirotors usage, we have to stick with electric motors. In RC world there…
