I originally wanted to build a toy drone with an ESP32-Cam, but after discovering the world of FPV, I became fascinated with building my own high-performance freestyle drone, learning about the technology, simulators, and legal aspects along the way. Through this process, I gained hands-on experience assembling, configuring, and flying custom drones, which allowed me to improve my skills and enjoy the freedom and excitement of FPV flying.
