Why doesn’t fixed wing have FPV?

In recent years, FPV (First Person View) flying has become increasingly popular in the field of drones, especially multi-rotor drones. However, fixed-wing aircraft have relatively few applications in the FPV field. This article will explore why fixed-wing aircraft rarely use FPV technology and analyze the reasons behind it.

1. Comparison of the popularity of FPV in multi-rotor and fixed wing

The following is a comparison of the popularity of FPV in multi-rotor and fixed-wing aircraft:

2. Reasons why fixed-wing aircraft rarely use FPV

1.Differences in flight characteristics

Fixed-wing aircraft require continuous high-speed flight, and FPV operations require extremely high pilot reaction speed and spatial awareness. The multi-rotor UAV can hover, which is more suitable for the precise operation of FPV.

2.Control difficulty

The take-off, landing and flight control of fixed-wing aircraft are more complicated than those of multi-rotor aircraft. It is more difficult to judge the flight status from the FPV perspective, which increases the difficulty of control.

3.Application scenario restrictions

Fixed-wing aircraft are mainly used in professional fields such as aerial survey and long-distance flights, and the entertainment demand of FPV is low.

4.technical challenges

The high-speed flight of fixed-wing aircraft requires higher delay and stability of the image transmission system, making technical implementation more difficult.

3. Potential advantages of fixed-wing FPV

Although fixed-wing FPV is less popular, it still has some unique advantages:

4. Future development trends

As technology advances, fixed-wing FPV may make breakthroughs in the following areas:

1.Improvements in image transmission technology: The low-latency, high-stability image transmission system will enhance the FPV experience.

2.Autonomous driving assistance: Autonomous driving technology can reduce the difficulty of FPV control.

3.Application scenario expansion: The combination of entertainment and professional fields may drive the development of fixed-wing FPV.

5. Conclusion

Fixed-wing aircraft rarely use FPV technology, mainly due to limitations in flight characteristics, control difficulty and application scenarios. However, with the advancement of technology, fixed-wing FPV still has huge development potential. In the future, we may see more applications and innovations in fixed-wing FPV.
