Guys! DIYFPV has received a huge update today 🔥
Our Product Catalog now has incredible spec filtering capability. We added product search on every page in the top navbar, brand pages, store pages, account deletion in the profile, username changes, and a bunch of other cool stuff.
That said, builder launch is just around the corner. It's INSANE.
And the updates will not stop here. WHO's ready for DIYFPV MCP so you can connect your favorite AI tool and get product data, prices, and all this stuff inside your chats?
I don't know about you, but I'm so hyped, and best of all, a mobile app is coming!!

Onboarded FPV24.COM few days ago, now its Foxeer!
We had struggle to integrate with them for so long, but finally it's done.
Seems like they have great products in stock. Check them out!
I've been actively working to improve our catalog.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Integrated means we finally got the APIs working to be able to sync their store on daily basis with an accurate product info. 💯

Europe! 🇪🇺
We have finally onboarded FPV24.COM store as our official partners in the catalog.
These are great news as we are extending coverage in Europe - huge thanks to Tim (FPV24 team) who saw value in our community.
Remember, DIYFPV.COM is arguably becoming one of the best places to find best FPV deals, compare offers, find stock and more! So much more coming.
PS. You might occasionally get DIYFPV stickers when you order from FPV24. 🤘

Having a lot of fun with the new builder making parts. i dare say that i've done my part for now.
10/10 amazing job. there are some tricky things and you did such a good job.
You got the vtx as video output correct, the voltage inputs right. and it looks great.
thanks again

As much fun as the builder has been, there are a few parts that make it really annoying for me.
1: I still can't use my own reference images, making it impossible to do both sides, if the product images are not good enough (they never are).
2: The grid is a bit too big for my liking (not that bad tbh).
3: Why can't you move the text freely, and why does it have to stay in the limitations of the board?
4: Why doesn't the text go over the top of everything? The components added at the end are not really useful at all, why do they override my labels?
The only really annoying thing it that I just can't finish the on I started because the product pictures have the top down view with both sides in one. Tough luck?
For the images they are checking into why permissions aren't set for users to upload custom images. For the grid issue, have you tried zooming in closer for a tighter snap grid? Also I find that using the arrow keys helps nudge parts in finer increments than dragging with the mouse does.
Then for the component stacking yeah, that's annoying. For now its whatever is added last gets the higher z index value. Labels and silkscreens have to be added as a final step or they do get covered up.
For your two sided part, does it let you assign the same image for both front and back?

We have around 100 parts to review. 😮
You guys are insane, so many contributions!
There will be a notification once your part is reviewed, it may or may not require some changes, hopefully the process will be understandable and smooth to everyone 🙂
All feedback is welcome those who want to get even more involved DM me or Stew we might need some additional reviewers / community mods etc. 🙌

Announcement coming from Stew, but our part builder is LIVE. 🎉
Look what I've built while having my morning coffee. Can you guess?
We will unlock the full builder with soldering studio once we have 250 parts submitted! 💪
Thanks so much this community is awesome.

Specialized Betaflight Skill for Claude LLM: AI-Assisted Tuning and Analysis v0.7.0
👉 https://github.com/SebGalina/betaflight-claude-skill
Hello everyone!
I’ve been working for a while now on a set of scripts implemented as a "Skill" for the Claude LLM.
The core idea is simple: to create a specialized Betaflight assistant that doesn't just answer questions, but actually understands configurations (diff all), analyzes Blackbox logs, and provides hands-on help during the tuning process.
Reliable Troubleshooting For "standard" questions and troubleshooting, it’s already very effective. When asked about Betaflight-related topics, it consults a set of Markdown files that guide its responses based on the official documentation and wiki. This ensures higher reliability, reduces hallucinations, and saves tokens (essentially, we’re "holding its hand" 😄).
It’s great for debugging basic and even many advanced topics. For the truly "nitty-gritty" issues, specialized forums and Discords
Advanced Analysis and Tuning The project gets really interesting when it comes to analysis and tuning.
On the Desktop version (and using Claude Code for those with at least a Pro subscription), I’ve added an MCP server (Model Context Protocol). This acts as a bridge between the LLM and a flight controller (FC) flashed with Betaflight. This means you can interact with your FC directly through the LLM.
Safety first: Safeguards are mandatory—no settings are changed without explicit user validation when a set command is required.
Blackbox Interpretation & Chirp Analysis By using the Python scripts (automated via Claude Code or executed manually), we take it a step further: full interpretation of .bbl Blackbox files, utility scripts, report generation, and more.
The centerpiece is a script called chirp_analysis.py.
Similar to PIDToolBox or what we’re starting to see in upcoming Betaflight releases, it leverages "chirp" logs to generate an incredibly detailed, standalone HTML report. It includes:
Bode plots
Step responses
Phase margins
Crossover frequencies
Stability metrics
Filter analysis
Automated axis diagnostics
Beyond Just Graphs The goal isn’t just to produce another chart. The objective is to generate a report that explains what the data actually means and suggests concrete actions to improve the tune. There are annotations, tooltips, and explanations throughout the report to help users understand the metrics and guide their adjustments.
Another major feature is the incremental approach. With each new tuning pass, the tool can automatically integrate new logs and maintain a complete session history. This allows you to visualize progress, identify regressions, and see the real-world impact of every change.
Live Demo & Scoring If you want to see the output without installing anything, I’ve uploaded a sample report here: 👉 Sample Full Report
I’ve also implemented a scoring system. It’s important to note that this score isn't an absolute measure of "tune quality." It’s a benchmark used within a specific session. A tune with a score of 72 might actually feel better to fly than one that "hits the ceiling" on paper.
Current Limitations The main hurdle right now is that Claude Free Tier users don't have access to Claude Code and cannot run scripts automatically. Claude Desktop also doesn't support automatic execution yet. In these cases, you’ll need to run the scripts manually, but everything is fully documented in the Skill’s README.

Check out our new June feature! You can now edit your CLI dumps directly in the browser on uavdesk.app and save them back with ease. 🚀

Currently, you need to set up these two Lua scripts on your EdgeTX transmitter: https://github.com/CarviFPV/flylog_edgetx. The advantage is that at the end of the day, you can perform a bulk import (as shown in this video: https://youtu.be/QNitDSq2Cpg).
Since a Betaflight log decoder is built into the log analyzer, it’s planned for the future to also analyze Betaflight logs via the flight details page and have them linked to the corresponding flights. However, this feature is not yet implemented 😉

WOW WOW WOW! DIYFPV's new fpv drone simulator is great! 😀
It seems like the crew behind DIYFPV released another banger tool for their website: a built in fpv drone simulator. I've played with it for a bit and I have to say: this is all my broke young teenager ass could've dreamt of back in the day! It runs in a playable state on my school laptop (which is known to barely handle 3 browser tabs at times), the physics are configurable and there's a level editor, all for free! This makes it almost the best free sim available at the moment, and it barely out. Maybe I'm overselling it, but I'm very happy with what DIYFPV has been putting out. One thing I would really like to see and is relatively easy to implement is racing indicators of what gates to fly through. Can't wait for more features like online map sharing and multiplayer gameplay!

Hi everyone
I’d like to share a new feature I’ve just launched in UAV Desk: a built-in log analyzer for FPV flights.
👉 https://uavdesk.app/news/log-analyzer-launch
The idea behind this feature is to simplify how we work with flight logs.
Thanks for taking a look 🙌
I took a closer look at the platform and had a few notes and questions:
The predecessor had serious security issues - hardcoded secrets, unauthenticated file access, no upload validation, ZIP path traversal risk. The production rewrite to Next.js/Clerk/Vercel likely fixes some, but can't be verified as the new version is not open-sourced.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to review the platform so thoroughly — I really appreciate your detailed feedback.
Regarding your note about the predecessor: you’re absolutely right to point this out. I wasn’t fully aware of all the issues you mentioned. Based on your feedback, I’ve gone through the system and implemented fixes wherever possible to address these concerns.
On your first question about sensitive data:
All of the fields you mentioned (GPS tracks, license numbers, addresses, etc.) are entirely optional. Users can decide themselves what they want to provide. Data is transmitted securely via HTTPS and is only accessible to the respective user.
For authentication and account-related functionality (including billing), I rely on Clerk, which is a well-established and security-focused provider. The goal here is to avoid handling sensitive authentication logic myself and instead depend on proven infrastructure.
Regarding your second point about data residency:
You are correct — the platform currently runs on infrastructure providers such as Vercel, Neon, Clerk, and Cloudflare, which are primarily US-based.
To give some context: I’m running this platform as a side project, which originally evolved from another project I had published as a self-hosted Docker solution. After receiving multiple requests for a cloud-based version, I decided to rebuild it as a hosted service. To keep costs manageable while still providing a reliable global platform, I chose these larger providers.
At the moment, there are no concrete plans to introduce a separate EU-only infrastructure. That said, I’m definitely open to suggestions if you know of strong EU-based alternatives — I’d be very interested in exploring them. So far, I haven’t come across a setup that would offer a comparable ecosystem with purely EU-based providers.
Thanks again for your valuable input — this kind of feedback is extremely helpful.

Got a lil bit of a feature request for marketplace:
Can we narrow down locations on catalog listings to state or at least approximate distance from profile pin down to like 200km if possible? Australia's pretty damn huge y'know? Not everyone's willing to drive 5000km to pick up a $50 piece of hardware
Marketplace should also auto-expire listings based on price or something, like idk, 30 days + $10/day or something because there are stuff being listed from what appears to be the site's birth.
