Name: Drone Theory 101: Part 1. The basics, and how an fpv quadcopter functions!
Uploaded: 2016-09-29T20:31:15-0700
Description: If you have no idea how a quadcopter works, but you want to, then this video is for you. I go over the basics

If you have no idea how a quadcopter works, but you want to, then this video is for you. I go over the basics of making FPV quadcopters, ( aka Drones or UAV, ) and explain what goes into making a quad for drone racing. Leave feedback, it’s much welcome! This is my first try at this kind of video, so if it’s hard to follow- please let me know.

  Thank you very much for such a great content. I would like to ask about the receiver, does it connnected to the POWER DISTRIBUTION BOARD and flight control simultaneously. I mean does the receiver contain three connections; 2 with DPB and one with the flight controller? Thanks again.

56. Akram Kadhim
  
  It was general connections of drone component. Not bad all but I thought that he should have chosen a white board to stock the figures on in order to be clear. The rest is ?
57. Wladimirus Carusso

  This guy must have got an epic class feat “Teacher”! But, I’ve got a question. Every TX and RX don’t come with microphone system? Only camera? By the way, I learnt what TX and RX mean from you. Thx
65. syed raza

76. Matem Rima

77. Yadel Fassika
  
  if you are building a huge quadcopter that can carry a human do you really need a frame
78. ray thomas
  
  Nice vid player!
79. Gelo Musikero PH
  
  You’re awesome dude. I really want to know more on how to make a drone and you explained it very well. Thank you..
80. Tadashi KAWAKAMI
  
  It is very nice video ! I should have seen this video at very beginning of my DIY Drone .
81. Toby *-*
  
  Your such a good teacher, it’s so easy understand! Love the tutorial ❤❤
82. Anderson Abdullah
  
  I can open this vedio
83. Jon Martello
  
  What if i wanted battery life in exchange for speed, can I hook up multiple lithium battery’s.
84. Jean Gamero
  
  Thanks for making it simple to understand. I’d be cool to see a revised version of this video now in 2020.
85. Atul Kumar
  
  Thank you, content is still relevant
86. philosoraptor
  
  I know this may sound a bit strange but can this drone be programed and if not what would be used to run the program on the drone
87. Anish Rathod
  
  Nice job! You seem like you know a lot about racing drones. You messed up one part when you said that Lipo batteries are lightweight. Usually, the denser something is, the heavier it is. But you were right when you said that Lipo batteries are effecient.
88. Maiku Tsukino
  
  I’m a complete noob thinking about getting his first drone. Without a doubt you just gave my a very clear and easy to understand first lesson. If you’re educating people like this in 2016, you should be awesome now in 2020! THANK YOU!
89. Rich Sadler
  
  Awesome! Exactly what I was looking for! Great job! Looking forward to watchng many more of your videos.
90. wilderjeans

  This video is incredible! I’m working for drone supply chain project for graduate school and I’ve been forwarding this to all my team members who aren’t familiar with how drones work.
  
  Amazing job!
98. Keyo Casper
  
  Very well done!
  Really great explanation. Spent hours trying to find out how to build a drone, this video had everything I needed.
99. Marin Kaloyanov

115. Jorg Schlagheck
  
  Just ordered a power distribution board, speed controllers and motors with propellers kit from eBay. Now I’ll have to shop for the rest and hopefully design and build my own frame (is that a good idea??). Great video. I subscribed to refer to your channel for help.
116. Rich Barrett
  
  Dude even in 2021 you deserve a medal for this. I think you need to make an updated version, win.
117. 3D Printing الطباعة الثلاثيه
  
  The best explanation ever seen among professionals, thanks
118. PeppermintGreen
  
  Really cool video, thanks! This made sense of a tonne of details about which jobs each bit of the drone does
119. Andrewut7y A
  
  Very cool. Good video. This is one of the only videos ive seen that actually break it down and just shows all the parts we need to build. Im still learning about homemade drones, have spent mant many hours already researching. i wish i had seen this first, i still find it valuable even after all my hours of watching i thought the power supply and the esc were all on 1 board.
120. xpansion Team

  Awesome video where the heck are you now? I hope you’re doing amazing things. Maybe all of this is obsolete but I’ll tell you what never goes obsolete. Cardboard backed diagrams.
126. Peter DiSpirito
  
  Excellent!! Had to take my DJI Phantom apart to get the wifi unit repaired. That got me interested in building one. This was a perfect intro to the components and what they do.
127. Ahmad Mahmood
  
  Good Work Dude!!> Looking Forward to more tutorials.
