Product Questions
What types of quad frames do you offer?
We carry a complete range of high-performance frames from 2″ micro quads to 10″ long-range builds, including popular 3″, 4″, 5″, 6″, and 7″ sizes. All our frames are selected for durability and flight characteristics preferred by FPV racers and freestyle pilots.
Which LiPo batteries should I choose for my build?
We stock 2S through 8S LiPo batteries to power any setup:
- 2S-3S: Ideal for lightweight 2″-3″ micro builds
- 4S-6S: The sweet spot for 5″ racing/freestyle quads
- 6S-8S: For high-performance 7″+ long-range builds
Do you carry complete FPV systems?
Yes! We offer everything from analog cameras (like Foxeer), VTX systems, to receivers and antennas. While we don’t sell pre-built quads, you’ll find all components to assemble competition-grade systems.
