Abstract

This research focuses on the designing aspects of a first-person view (FPV) Drone. An FPV drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that transmits Hawkeye's view to the ground control station. It's called a Hawkeye similar to the view that an eagle gets when it flies. It is also recognized for its dynamic behavior, the ease and flexibility of maneuvering. The response time of the FPV drone is quite remarkable for the purpose it serves. We have worked on the SP3 F3 racer Flight controller which is known for its extreme autopiloting and stability. Designing, developing, and simulating such a dy-namic drone was a challenging task done with ease. It has a range of about 3 KM and a flight time of 11-12 minutes on (not so vigorous) flying conditions.
