Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What cable do I need to connect the drone to Betaflight?

You will need a data transfer USB cable, preferably one with a USB Type-A to USB Type-C connector. Make sure the cable supports data transfer, not just charging.

 

What battery is recommended for Aleksi Aero drones?

We recommend using a 6S 8000mAh LiPo battery with a minimum discharge rate of 75C for optimal performance.

 

Can I use a battery of a different size or spec?

Lower-capacity or lower-discharge batteries may be suitable, but they could result in reduced flight time, lower thrust, or voltage sag. Always ensure your battery meets the minimum 75C rating and has the required voltage compatibility.

 

Do I need to configure the drone myself?

Your drone will come pre-configured with basic settings. However, it’s recommended to connect to Betaflight and verify configuration, radio bindings, and PID tuning before first flight.

 

Is the drone plug-and-play?

Almost. The basic setup, which includes binding your transmitter, checking Betaflight configuration, and verifying failsafe settings, is required. A basic understanding of Betaflight and FPV hardware is recommended.
