FPV racing competition

As for the Dubai FPV racing competition ended in April,2016,everyone is exciting about it ,which makes me want to know more about this field.

At first,we can learn something from its definition,First-person view (FPV), also known as remote-person view (RPV), or simply video piloting, is a method used to control a radio-controlled vehicle from the driver or pilot's view point. Most commonly it is used to pilot a radio-controlled aircraft or other type of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The vehicle is either driven or piloted remotely from a first-person perspective via an on board camera, fed wireless to video FPV goggles or a video monitor. More sophisticated setups include a pan-and-tilt gimbaled camera controlled by a gyroscope sensor in the pilot's goggles and with dual on board cameras, enabling a true stereoscopic view.

And then ,for the competition ,we need to know the important members of one team ,which must needs four parts:

Leader - the core team , responsible for the overall co-ordination game , subordinates, upload issued , etc. coordination team operation . Usually the team leader by experienced "old hands fly " as , with a wealth of competition experience ( except that the reaction rate as before ) , to develop a reasonable strategy and tactics at the crucial moment , guiding the team to compete .

Pilot- the star of the team , standing on the podium who shine . pilots are usually young, talented players , such as the Dubai UAV Series champion Luke only 13 years old . We are used to , " reflecting the rapid , gifted " to describe them . In fact, hard work and practice is the necessary way , behind their success is the result of hard training flight 30 FPV batteries per day. There is such a young age can adhere to , is certainly interested in the first place .
Navigator - similar to the Rally who sat Fujia , commonly known as "flesh navigation " , but his role is not only to navigate. Due to fly FPV glasses hand with focus on the game , so the event other than the flight can not be observed . This time is necessary to accurately tell the pilot to fly the hands of the current process of the game , with their opponents from the first couple of laps has been whether to sprint or to save electricity. The pilot is flying the other hand the other eye and brain , is responsible for the overall game observation , thinking a resourceful strategy and accurate tell fly hand .

Technician - technical support, certainly ( at least once ) through the machine 's elite enthusiasts , proficient in all kinds of racks , ESCs , flight control parameters familiar , but the key is experience , over many machines , on the fly Hand feedback can accurately understand the problem and quickly debug . In addition , before the game is ready for a game or even more than one aircraft is crucial contest between technicians . Good technician can create so much great guide to pilots to make hands fly in the game to play with ease .

Anyway ,The battery is a key to adapt to the competition system , in an interview with the champion Luke when we learned that he flew 30 batteries each day!which we can see the demand of batteries is so big and how important we need to protect our batteries well. Besides the popular batteries for FPV now is the type in Gensace &TATTU lipo batteries,such as 3s 1300mah lipo,and also has other types.

However, the hobby FPV is so interesting and we need to learn more and more,which will help us to do everything better!
