FPV Guides & Engineering Notes

Technical FPV reference material from Funkolius Productions: frame geometry, carbon fiber, prop clearance, digital video packaging, bando durability, and practical build decisions. These pages are written to answer the question directly, then explain the engineering behind it.

T300 vs T700 Carbon Fiber for FPV Drone Frames

What Toray’s published strength, modulus, and strain data actually mean for FPV frame carbon — and why fiber grade alone does not define the finished laminate. Read the T300 vs T700 guide.

DJI O4 Wide Air Unit (Lite) on a 2-Inch FPV Frame

Camera protection, center of gravity, prop clearance, cooling, wiring space, and why a digital micro needs to be designed as a complete system. Read the DJI O4 Wide Air Unit guide.

Can a 2-Inch FPV Frame Run 2.2-Inch Props?

Why 2.2-inch clearance has to be designed into a 2-inch-class frame, how blade flex changes the real clearance margin, and how prop size affects the power system. Read the 2.2-inch prop guide.

2mm vs 2.5mm Carbon Bottom Plate for Micro FPV

The real tradeoff between mass, bending stiffness, and impact margin in a micro frame — without pretending thicker is automatically better. Read the carbon plate thickness guide.

What Makes a Good Bando FPV Frame?

Load paths, camera protection, replaceable parts, hardware retention, repairability, and why a durable bando frame still has to fly precisely. Read the bando frame guide.

How No-Props-in-View FPV Frame Geometry Works

How camera field of view, motor placement, wheelbase, squash-X geometry, and camera protection work together to keep prop discs out of the recorded image. Read the no-props-in-view geometry guide.

Capacitors, Inductance & Why Placement Matters

How current-loop inductance, capacitor placement, ESR, and ESL affect an FPV power system — and why short connections at the ESC matter. Read the capacitor placement guide.
