FPV PLUTO – Project Completed Finally

With help of Dinesh from Drona Aviation, I was finally able to custom build FPV quadcopters.

I was able to build two drone as follows
Attached is link of the pictures of the drones and my FPV gear

FPV Pluto X Light
I decided to name this drone as above because it essentially drone aviation design and research behind the frame and hardware . I just had to assemble everything together after procuring the FPV camera. This drone is very light weight and weight saving has been the primary target in this build hence I decided to let go of the stock Pluto Frame. The Pluto light frame is very light but can take crashes well, but I have discovered a few weak points on frame which tend to snap .
The drone flies effortlessly indoors and in tight spaces and bounces of walls in minor crashes . Perfect drone to practice FPV indoors
FC: Primus V4
Frame : 3D printed Pluto X light frame provided in Drona Aviation website
motors : Stock 720 coreless
props :stock 55 mm
Battery: stock 600Mah
Camera :5.8 GHz Turbowing AIO camera
Flight time : 8 min with camera

X Racer powered by Primus X
This completely self custom build , all parts have been self sourced and assembled apart from the FC . Thingiverse has lots of 8520 motor supported frames and I printed most of them which could hold the Primus X FC which is quite big compared to whoop or brushed FC available in market .Finally after many tests and crashes this frame was chosen because of ultralight features and easy and quick print to replace when damaged . X racer has lots of power which I am yet to test outdoors . Indoors the motors have lot of power and is very evident when throttle is raised even in Altitude Hold mode . Due to the bigger motors flight time has decreased as they demand more power and bigger propellers(but this enables more thrust and grip through the air).I will test more propellers to get an efficient setup
FC: Primus X
Frame : 3D printed X Racer Frame from Thingiverse
motors : 8520 Coreless motors from Amazon
props : Q100 , 65 mm Propellers
Battery: Stock 600Mah
Camera :5.8 GHz S2 AIO camera from RC Hyderabad
Flight time : approx. 5 min with camera

FPV Gear
Drones are one part of the FPV systems , other part being your gear .
Goggles: 5.8GHZ EMAX Transporter from RC Hyderabad
DVR : Eachine ROTG01/Skydroid OTG receiver connected to Phone and recorded on phone
Joystick : Live Tech joystick from Amazon connected to Pluto Controller app using blue tooth

Finally I have started my journey in FPV using brushed indoor quadcopters and enjoying myself in this new hobby . Hopefully in the coming days I would able to share the DVR footage of my flights as well .
