I personally handle every step of building each FPV drone from scratch, beginning with ordering the necessary parts and concluding with rigorous testing. Due to restrictions on civilian flight in Ukraine, I can't test it in the air. However, thanks to the Social Drone UA initiative, this crucial aspect is facilitated. Numerous individuals, including myself, contribute by constructing drones and entrusting them to volunteers from Social Drone UA for final testing. Thanks to this collaborative effort, the Armed Forces of Ukraine receive only top-quality, fully functional FPVs from us.

I prioritize meeting the specific requirements of pilots from the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Some request 7'' FPV drones, capable of flying approximately 10km with a payload of 1.5kg. Others ask for 10'' FPV bombers, which can drop a payload and return. Regardless of the drone type, I use FPV parts that offer the best quality-to-price ratio, benefiting from insights shared by the Social Drone community and direct feedback from pilots using my FPVs on the battlefield.

I keep track of all purchased components, and the average cost of my drones with a battery is:

• 7-inch – $220

• 10-inch – $270

• 10-inch bomber – $340

My drones are inexpensive because I do not charge for my work, consumables, or workspace rental. All drones are provided to the military free of charge.

Social Drone UA offers comprehensive instructions on building FPV drones and guidance on selecting the appropriate FPV parts. Within this supportive community, I can always find answers if I encounter any challenges. Additionally, I've completed online courses from Victory Drones, further enhancing my expertise in FPV drone building. It's another invaluable initiative dedicated to constructing drones for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Overall, I have been successfully building drones and helping others do the same for over a year.
