GEPRC Sparrow GEP-MX3: Robust mini FPV racing quad

GEPRC Sparrow GEP-MX3 mini racing quadcopter

Advertised with top speed of 170 Km/h, the GEPRC Sparrow GEP-MX3 is certainly not a learn-to-fly drone. You need serious piloting skills to hold in check this mini racing quadcopter.

Crashes are inevitable even for pro pilots, but thanks to the 3K carbon fiber frame and aluminium alloy canopy the Sparrow GEP-MX3 should survive in light impacts.

Instead of a no-name FPV camera, GEPRC opted for the RunCam Micro Swift. The camera is paired with a 72 CH 5.8G VTX with adjustable broadcast power. According to your needs and flight environment, you can toggle between 25mW, 100mW and 250mW.
