HOW TO PAIR YOUR CONTROLLER
30-SECOND SETUP
1
Plug in or Bluetooth Pair Your Controller
Plug in your Xbox, PlayStation DualSense, DJI FPV Remote 2, or RadioMaster transmitter via USB (select "USB Joystick / HID" mode on your radio screen if prompted).
2
Press Any Button to Wake the Web Gamepad API
Browsers require one initial button press or trigger press on the controller before granting active telemetry access to the application.

Confirm Status Pill Turns Emerald Green
The top navigation status pill switches from NO CONTROLLER to ONLINE [GAMEPAD]. Launch into 3D Flight Sim and start flying!
Physics simulation computes real-time aerodynamic lift, drag, and inertia.
AERONAUTICAL GROUND SCHOOL & DRONE EDUCATION
Essential multi-rotor physics, hardware component architectures, battery chemistry, and FAA Part 107 regulatory compliance.
MULTIROTOR AERODYNAMICS
PHYSICS
Differential Thrust & Torque: Quadcopters utilize counter-rotating propeller pairs (2 CW, 2 CCW) to cancel net gyroscopic torque. Yaw rotation is achieved by accelerating one diagonal pair while decelerating the opposing pair.
Vortex Ring State (VRS): Descending straight down into rotor downwash (>300 ft/min) causes sudden loss of lift. Escape by pitching forward into clean laminar air.
HARDWARE & AVIONICS
ENGINEERING
Motors & ESCs: Brushless motors (e.g. 2207 = 22mm width × 7mm height). Digital DShot600 ESCs communicate at 600 kbit/s with bidirectional RPM telemetry for real-time gyro notch filtering.
Radio Control: ExpressLRS (ELRS) operates at 2.4GHz / 900MHz with Semtech LoRa modulation delivering up to 1000Hz packet refresh rates and extreme range.
LIPO BATTERY SCIENCE
SAFETY
Critical Voltage Numbers: 4.20V (Max Full Charge) • 3.80V-3.85V (Storage Voltage) • 3.50V (Landing Alarm Under Load) • 3.30V (Cell Damage Threshold).
Safe Charging: Always charge at 1C (1.4A for a 1400mAh pack). Never leave charging unattended. Store packs in certified fireproof containers.
VLOS & Visual Observers: FPV pilots wearing goggles must have a co-located Visual Observer (VO) maintaining unaided line of sight at all times.
Comprehensive curriculum available in the dedicated Pilot Academy tab.
PILOT FLIGHT TRAINING & PROGRESSION DRILLS
Master flight maneuvers from rookie hover discipline to advanced aerobatics and emergency procedures.
DRILL 01: HOVER BOX
ROOKIE
Establish a steady 2m hover. Navigate a 10m perimeter square keeping tail-in orientation. Teaches micro throttle corrections and attitude discipline.
DRILL 02: FIGURE-8 BANKING
INTERMEDIATE
Coordinated turns: Blend rudder yaw and aileron roll together with forward pitch. Eliminates flat centrifugal sliding turns.
DRILL 04: THE SPLIT-S
ADVANCED ACRO
Roll 180° inverted -> Cut throttle to zero -> Pull pitch elevator back through a half-loop dive -> Flare throttle level in reverse direction.
DRILL 06: EMERGENCY FAILSAFE
SAFETY
On video snow or packet drops: 1-second throttle blip to clear ground clutter, engage Angle self-level mode, and activate Return-to-Home.
AERIAL RECONNAISSANCE TIMELINE
Curate, log, and inspect drone flight expeditions across global locations with full telemetry metrics and instant 4K theater playback.
LOGGING EXPEDITIONS
UPLOADS
Click "LOG FOOTAGE" in the top header. You can drag and drop any local MP4, WebM, or MOV video file, or supply a direct HTTPS stream URL.
Specify flight title, aircraft model (Mavic 3, Avata 2, Mini 4, Custom 5" FPV), flight date, airtime, and location to commit the mission to the timeline.
FILTERING & SHARING
TELEMETRY
Use the filter pills (ALL, MAVIC 3, AVATA 2, FPV, MINI 4) or toggle MY FLIGHTS to isolate specific aircraft classes.
Click SHARE FLIGHT inside any video theater card to copy a high-speed direct mission link to your clipboard.
Missions are preserved in local browser storage across sessions.
PILOT DOSSIER & FLEET HANGAR
Manage your flight credentials, callsign identity, registered primary aircraft, and total accumulated airtime.
CALLSIGN IDENTITY
ACCESS
New pilots can click PILOT LOGIN to sign in with demo credentials (Commander Razor) or register an autonomous callsign.
Your callsign stamps all uploaded flights and synchronizes across the landing page header and mission logs.
FLEET & METRICS
STATISTICS
The pilot dossier dynamically tracks your logged flights, cumulative airtime minutes, active aircraft status, and RC link protocol.
Quickly filter the timeline down to your personal flights via the User Menu or Dossier Modal.
User sessions are persistent and secure in local pilot state.
RETURNING TO LANDING PORTAL
Click the top-left PORTAL button or choose "Return to Landing Portal" in the user menu to transition back to the cinematic video landing portal at any time.
1-CLICK LAUNCH
Clicking "Launch Command Center" on the landing page instantly launches you directly into Mission Control with zero delay or blockage.
