TINY TIE - 3D PRINTABLE INDOOR FPV TIE FIGHTER QUADCOPTER

myminifactory

The Tiny TIE is a DIY 3D printable indoor first person view (FPV) racing platform inspired by the iconic TIE fighter. It boasts performance similar to that of the Inductrix and the Tiny Whoop, making it a thrilling experience for pilots. With FPV, you can fly the drone while watching the video feed from the onboard camera in near real-time, giving you an immersive feeling like you're piloting the quadcopter yourself. The wings serve as landing gear, protecting the props against accidental impacts and ensuring the drone's stability while maintaining responsiveness.

To implement FPV, you'll need a FPV compatible 5.8GHz camera and transmitter. Here are some options to consider: https://amzn.to/2MzeEe5. To mount the camera on the flight controller, you'll need an appropriate camera mount. STLs for the camera mount are included here, but you can also find custom mounts for different cameras on Thingiverse. FPV Goggles: To operate in FPV mode, you'll need FPV goggles that receive the 5.8GHz video signal and display the video. We use the FatShark V3 goggles, but you can find alternatives here: https://amzn.to/2Mxtu4y. Radio: Of course, you'll also need a radio. There are many options available, and we use a Spektrum DX9, but there are more alternatives here: https://amzn.to/2QwJJlx. *affiliate links
