Copter Construction Course

Build your own FPV copter

In this DroneMasters Academy course you will build your own FPV drone with our support. First Person View (FPV) gives you the opportunity to fly your drone through video goggles and take an extraordinary perspective.

In this course we will build, program and set up your first copter together. No previous experience is necessary. You will be guided through all necessary steps and can ask questions and get advice at any time.

The drone is a 5" quadcopter that has been specially assembled for this course and can reach speeds of up to 130 km/h. In addition to learning how to assemble the copter, you will also learn about repair and maintenance.

The goal is that you can start directly with your finished copter and the acquired knowledge and realize the dream of flying!

This course is suitable for people 14 years and older and can be taken without prior knowledge.

The participation fee does not include the cost of materials. The cost of the required material is about 500 euros.
