The inventor behind PowerUp 3.0 drone for paper airplane has announced PowerUp FPV, a new flying drone with a live streaming camera. Using the integrated camera, your paper airplane will bring you more realistic flying experience.
The PowerUp FPV is an innovative and pretty fun app-controlled flying drone that works with your paper planes. As we can see from the images, the drone shows off a compact design along with a durable carbon-fiber and nylon reinforced frame in order to fit on various paper airplanes and prevent it from the damage of crashes.
The PowerUp FPV comes with a twin motor module which gives your paper plane a maximum speed of 20 mph, and built-in WiFi connectivity allows it to wirelessly communicate with your smartphone, so you can use your handset to control your motorized paper plane, or using an head-mounted display, you can also wear your smartphone on your head and control the paper airplane via tilting your head.
Most importantly, the flying drone features an integrated VGA camera that delivers you real-time live streaming or records videos with audio. When controlling it in gamepad mode, you can also use it to capture photos, but you have to manually adjust the direction of the camera before flight. In addition, PowerUp FPV comes with 550mAh rechargeable battery, 6 sheets of paper templates, 4 spare propellers, and microSD card.
PowerUp FPV has been available for preorder on Kickstarter. Pledging $159 will let you own the paper airplane drone. It will be shipped in June next year. BTW, also don’t miss PhoneDrone Ethos flying drone and more stuff by following tags.
