Falcore Is Designed For Novice To Experienced Racers
FPV drone racing is a sport gaining in popularity around the world, but high-performance aircraft can be expensive, particularly when the operator is a novice and the aircraft might "impact terrain".
A new racing drone has been recently introduced by Amimon that will help a novice drone racer build confidence and skills. Called The Falcore, the company says on its website that the drone has been designed from ground up to help expose drone racing to everyone. It allows novice pilots to fly and race right out of the box, and with a switch of a button turn the Falcore into an aggressive, ultra-fast, ultra-durable racing drone.
Falcore’s carbon fiber tubular frame protects all electronics components, providing crash resistant strength. Flexible motor arm joints can dislocate momentarily at high power impacts to protect drone from damage.
The company has developed a patented SHIELD mode which allows anyone to race from day one. SHIELD mode uses sonar and barometer sensors to automatically maintain flight altitude, and coordinates turning to allow flying using a single stick of the remote.
Falcor is ready to race straight out the box. The package includes a Falcore Drone with built in Prosight HD video link and a Falcore Remote Control with mounted video receiver. Included in the package also an easy release battery, chargers, spare propellers and even a special tool for easy prop replacement and basic maintenance.
You'll have to supply your own HDMI goggles.
