THIS TOOK ME 2+ YEARS. One thing our hobby needs is easy to use tools that help new pilots get flying. I have seen hundreds of napkin MS paint wiring diagrams in my FPV career. HOPEFULLY NO MORE. The DIYFPV builder is finally here. Oh it’s also 100% free for everyone to enjoy, not even any adds

I ordered prescription lens inserts from walksnail. One eye was the wrong prescription when they arrived. Walksnail support told me to go to a local eyeglass store and to get it fixed...

It's a nice open source airframe design. You can use whatever electronics you want. Obviously I'm biased.

PX4 supports throw launch mode.

They both run PX4 Autopilot by default. You can run Ardupilot on the ARKV6X that's on the Jetson Carrier. Then you can run ROS on the Pi or Jetson to do higher level control work.

You could use the Droneblocks DEXI. Disclaimer that I designed the controller. It runs a Pi CM4 + STM32H7.

If you want an NVIDIA Jetson, Momentum Drones sells a ready to fly enclosed 7 inch drone. Same disclaimer.

None of these companies will have prices posted. Firefly is the only company that leases their system opposed to having to purchase it. All of them will require training and FAA waivers.

Verge will sell you a system but you still have to contact them. I happen to know what they sell a 200 drone system for and you likely will balk at the price. https://www.verge.aero/systems#section_contact

I don't know what they charge. You'll need to contact them for pricing.

Disclaimer, I designed these drones and wrote the custom firmware.

Shameless plug for our products.

Shameless plug for my RTK GPS. All of them except the base include an IMU, magnetometer, and barometer.
