Drone Racing Vortex 250 Pro
Pure-bred Racer
The Vortex 285’s foldable tubular hands are changed via genuinely unbreakable 4mm Carbon Fiber flat palms, through twelve M3 aluminium spacers wrapped in custom plastic.
The body is designed to hit objects which don’t like to move from the way, and live to tell the tale to fly again within the subsequent race.
The 2mm Carbon Fiber pinnacle-plate is designed to take a few extreme abuse, subsidized up by 2mm FR4 skid plates which live on scraping throughout the occasional parking-lot floor.Drone Racing Vortex 250 Pro
Fusion Gen2 Flight Controller
The ImmersionRC Fusion, a extraordinarily included modern-day flight controller, obtains an extensive replace in favor of the Vortex 250.
The ‘F1’ elegance processor is up to date to an F3, flash reminiscence in favor of BlackBox log garage is integrated, the buzzer is changed through one MUCH louder, as well as a port is added in favor of direct serial receiver hookup (5V and three.3v supply alternatives).
As for the Fusion Gen1, the Gen2 is pre-loaded through a custom develop of CleanFlight, and is future-proof, supporting future updates.
The tall effectiveness ‘F3’ processor supplies > 2x the efficiency of it’s predecessor, allowing minimize loop times, as well as much better flight effectiveness.
PIDs are adjusted on-display, in clean-to-make use of menus, driven directly out of the R/C Tx.
Integrated five.8GHz Video Tx through RaceBand
An on-board NexWaveRF 5.8GHz video transmitter, with forty channel support, guarantees compatibility via any 5.8Ghz A/V Rx on the market.
New for the Vortex 250, is Dynamic Power Control. Transmitter energy is diminished immediately when the quad is disarmed, or ready in favor of a race to beginning, to decrease interference to other pilots.
ImmersionRC’s specific RaceBand makes it possible for eight pilots to fly together, whilst being a hundred% legal in favor of US resellers to distribute. All channels fall in the criminal US Ham band.
The on-board OSD allows video transmitter channels to be selected via the R/C transmitter, no extra dip-switches to turn, as well as no more frequency lists to recollect.
Complete compatibility through all ImmersionRC/FatShark, Boscam, Team Black-Sheep, DJI, as well as ImmersionRC RaceBand channels.Drone Racing Vortex 250 Pro
NOTE: US Resellers may lock domestic shipments to avoid channels out of doors the prison Ham band.
Flexible Camera Options
The bendy Vortex digicam set up helps each a flight camera, as well as an HD digicam consisting of a GoPro. This install is included inside the field with the Vortex 250, as well as doesn’t require the acquisition of an add-on product.
The flight video camera is preserved from influences, as well as is suspended from a vibration-dampened carbon-fibre plate. An adjustable bracket allows the digital camera to be tilted to guarantee an excellent ahead view all through high-speed racing.
As the icing on the cake, a monster 3A switching regulator makes it possible for any HD electronic camera (GoPro included) to be powered out of the flight percent, enabling needless digital camera batteries to be left at home.
Pro-Tuner, In The Box
The Vortex 250 maintains within the footsteps of it’s Vortex 285 large-brother, and no longer just ships via a pro-tune that flies like it's miles on rails, but provides a choice of seasoned-tunes created by using some of the experts within the interest.
Some of the biggest names in FPV Quad Racing have abused infinite LiPos tuning the Vortex in favor of peak efficiency, as well as have produced a few stunning videos within the process.
Lights!, Music!, Action!!!
Ok, there's no track, we’ll depart the fact that to the publish-processing, yet there are lighting fixtures, and lots of movement!
A set of eight 24-bit RGB LEDs sit at the tail of the Vortex, sandwiched effectively in between the top, and minimize frame plates.
These LEDs, controlled by way of a committed 32-bit ARM processor (yeah… what have been we thinking!), could reveal some thing as mundane as the pilot’s favourite color, just regarding some thing else we decide to roll right into the consumer-upgradable firmware.
Brake lighting?, Shift to white for max. Acceleration?, Indicators in favor of polite left/ideal turns?, or just a pattern to remind you of 80’s Discos.
Since Airgonay’s now-famous ‘Star Wars’ video, rear lights on miniquads have become now not a ‘nice to have actually’, but a ‘no a laugh with out ’em’.
‘Gen2’ Custom 32-bit, 20A ESCs, through OneShot125
Custom 20A ESCs (22A Peak), via OneShot125, as well as regenerative braking, for crisp-responsive flight by means of CleanFlight. A 32-bit ARM processor runs every ESC, making sure masses of processing strength to force even the most fussy brushless motors.
The 2nd generation of ImmersionRC’s ‘EzESC’, with race-proven reliability, and the more punch required to spin the 2204/2300kV vehicles.
These ESCs similarly support our revolutionary rotorSENSE, which applications prop path via the flick of a finger. No a lot more swapping motor wires.
Blackbox Recorder
Blackbox is a tall rate recorder for flight controller data, which is saved in an included blink reminiscence at the Vortex 250’s Fusion Gen2 board.
This exceptionally powerful device may be made use of to tweak your PIDs to perfection along with your choise of props, battery, and camera.
Complete Graphic OSD, through EzOSD pedigree
An on-board complete-graphic OSD supplies in-flight updates of vital parameters, and sports a menu which enables all options to be programmed in the discipline via the R/C Tx, and also a hard and fast of goggles, or an LCD screen.
A actual-time interface through the flight controller makes it possible for synthetic horizons, F-18 style presentations, as well as change of flight parameters.
Seven! 32-bit ARM processors
There are not numerous quads obtainable through that declare to fame… the Vortex 250, like its 285 large-brother, sports no less than seven 32-bit ARM processors, all working together for maximum amusing-factor.
A dedicated ARM for the flight controller, every other in favor of the whole-picture OSD, even another in favor of the LED board behind the quad, and then four high efficiency ARMs in favor of the custom ESCs.
Custom OSD Layouts
Several OSD layouts are included inside the bundle:
A classical EzOSD-type format, with all critical parameters available on-display.
A Heads-Up screen which would be a lot more at residence in a fighter-jet, with synthetic horizon and altitude indicator.
A Race format, with only the essential parameters, tucked around the sides of the screen.
A Gaming layout… we’ll give an explanation for the fact that one just earlier than release
All OSD formats consist of display-center indicators for crucial warnings, such as battery voltage, EzUHF Link Critical, etc.Drone Racing Vortex 250 Pro
Physical meets Virtual
With the recent creation of our Liftoff FPV Racing Simulator, ImmersionRC air frames may be simulated in the digital world.
Vortex 285 vs. 250 Pro Comparison
The Vortex 285, and also the new 250-Pro are pretty exclusive quads. The 285 has the benefit of foldability, making it appropriate in favor of transport, and building right into compact flight-cases.
The 250 Pro has the advantage of a extra powerful processor, better-cutting-edge ESCs, as well as a few large (and also heavier) motors.
