Here are some things to be aware of and tips for building my Manta mini quadcopter.

Manta is a 200mm class quadcopter frame I designed for freestyle and racing to use 5 inch props and be balanced when mounting a HD camera.

HS1177 and some other cameras use the Sony 600TVL Super HAD CCD sensor and firmware and they all have the same setting options, accessed using a DPAD button controller on a cable that comes with the camera. For outdoor FPV racing it’s important to change settings to get the best image for both facing into the sun and flying into shadows, these are the settings I recommend. ↓ Read more…
