Review: FPV Lego Drone Kickstarter - From the makers of the world's first flyable and fully autonomous FPV Lego Drone frame made completely from LEGO® bricks, we bring you our next great idea, the FPV Lego Drone from Brickdrones.com. Our last project was a Staff Pick and very successful, people all over the world have built our FPV Lego Drone and fly the, today. The new project was designed to be an mini version, easier to assemble and affordable kit with no glue or soldering required. We have created a kit that requires no prior flying experience, simple to fly, easy to follow assembly directions, and flies using a 6 Channel Spektrum Transmitter. Research and development team working on the Brickdrones Mini has help create this new experience. Digital SkyMini is extremely educational for the kids and the entire family. Using Kickstarter we want everyone to have the opportunity to build their own drone with LEGO® bricks.

As Far As Legality Goes:
there is no issues with legality.
People sell their creations online every day, but LEGO® has strict rules and we try to follow them as much as we can. We do not copy or clone their products. We do not try to confuse the customer making them think it's an authorized LEGO® creation. We do not use LEGO® in our domain name.

We also follow as best as we can LEGO's Fair Play rules
Specs:
NAZE32 flight controller with Loaded with Cleanflight and capable of 3 modes, Angle/Horizon and Acro.
We use an advanced flight controller based on NAZE32, the same style flight controller that continues to win races and freestyle events today. This flight controller supports easy modes like Angle mode that gives the beginner super stable and level flying. Then for the most advanced flyer we have preset the flight controller to support Horizon mode, this is a intermediate mode that allows flips and rolls yet still has stability. As you get more advanced at your flying you can change our settings to support full Acro and do FPV flying.
Powerful Brushless motors and ESCs
We use powerful 6500KV Brushless motors. Brushless motors are why our LEGO® Mini drone costs a little more but we wanted to give our LEGO® Mini enough power to fly fast, perform acrobatics like flips safely and yet have complete stability in our beginner modes.
6 Channel Spektrum Transmitter.
Spektrum is The Leader in Spread Spectrum Technology. We selected Spektrum Transmitter because of its accuracy and 6 channels. This gives you a higher end accuracy for performing acrobatics and stability, this is essential in any good flying quadcopter.
Long Lasting 400mAh 2S Battery
What does this mean to you? Well first it gives you longer battery life with more than other mini quads. Most other mini quads use 1S, or Single Cell batteries, ours has 2 cells. Why? Well we set out to design a kit that can grow with you. Let's say you want to add a FPV camera in the future to fly thru the house. Well our 2S battery has enough power to run a small micro FPV camera.
ProTuned
The makers at Brickdrones.com have spent countless hours and crashes professionally tuned the flight controller with 2 modes, beginner(Angle) and expert(Horizon) to work with the Spektrum transmitter, motors and props that come with the kit. This means that once built it should fly fantastic. We will continue to tweak the flight controller and post the settings on our web site.
Brickdrones.com team has tested many motors, flight controllers, and batteries to find the best parts to create the Digital Sky Mini. From our research we have found the included brushless motors, Cleanflight NAZE32 based flight controller, and 2s battery provide the best flight times.
