The BeeBrain BLV3 Flight Controller Flight Controller!

The latest iteration of the BeeBrainBL contains massive improvements to the performance of the built in FrSky Receiver and built in video transmitter.

In addition, the MOSFETs were upgraded to support the power demands of micro toothpick drones.

The solder pads on each ESC were enlarged to enable custom builds! With plenty of surface area and spacing, you can now solder on any motor of your choosing. One of our favorite applications of the BeeBrain BL is in micro drones. Since the BeeBrain BL integrates the flight controller, ESCs, receiver, and video transmitter all in one package, it's insanely easy and clean to build.

Receiver Improvements - 50% More Range

1. Optimized SPI Receiver hardware to improve efficiency within the receiver.
2. Removable antennas.
3. Additional low noise amplifier to increase range.
4. Optional wiring harness is included to install an external receiver (Crossfire, Ghost, etc)

Video Transmitter Improvements - 120mW

1. New heatsink and layout to increase heat dispersion and efficiency.
2. Transmitting power increased to 120mW from 25mW (V2)
