Airframes built, configured and tuned, and broken ones put back in the air. Bring your own parts or buy them here and we will build them into something that flies properly.
Builds
- Full builds from parts — frame assembly, motor and ESC soldering, flight controller wiring, VTX and antenna mounting
- Clean soldering throughout — the single thing that decides whether a quad survives its first season
- Flight controller configuration — firmware, rates, modes, failsafe and arming set up and explained
- Tuning — PID and filter tuning for your motors, props and flying style
- Bench test and hover check before it is handed back
Repairs
- Crash damage — arms, frames, bent shafts and stripped mounts
- Burnt ESCs, lifted pads and broken motor leads
- Antenna, VTX and camera replacement
- Radio and goggle binding, channel setup and link troubleshooting
- Battery lead and connector repairs
Setup and support
New to FPV and holding a box of parts you are not sure about? We will set the whole thing up with you — radio bound, goggles configured, failsafe tested, modes on the right switches — so your first flight is not also your last.
Parts
Tell us what you are building and we will source and quote the parts: motors, props, frames, flight controllers, ESCs, batteries, goggles and radios.
A note on flying legally
South African airspace is regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority. Rules cover where you may fly, how high, how far from people and property, and what counts as recreational against commercial use. Building and selling the hardware is unrestricted; flying it is not. Check the current SACAA regulations before you fly, particularly if you intend to fly for anything other than your own recreation.
