Nano FPV Tank

NANO FPV TANK

Hi, Here is my Nano FPV Tank with proportional speed contol and controlable LED lights that can fit in the palm of your hand!

This tank is only 5.5x4x3cm! great for racing around the office or living room at high speed while having great contol around those hard to reach places and super bright lights when it gets dark! after some testing i have found i'm getting a good 10mins+ of driving time on a full charge and a good 130m+ of range with the camera feed (using the standard Dipol antennas) and 300m+ with the radio!

Although origanally made for a bit of fun, this tiny tank makes a great inspection robot to see those places you never thought you'd get to!

For the full build guide please see the PDF included in the files or on my Instructables:
