ImmersionRC Vortex Guide (What to Buy)

If you’re getting started with buying a Vortex, whether its your first FPV Quadcopter, or you’re looking for something new that’s Ready To Fly (RTF), we’re here to help.

It might be a bit tricky to figure out exactly what you need to get started. We’re here to break down every piece you need, so that you can get it all shipped to you and be ready to fly within days.

The ImmersionRC comes with most pieces already built in. The VTX, ESCs, and Motors are already connected and screwed into the sleek 285mm frame. It also comes with its own flight camera.

What you do need is a radio receiver, a Radio TX (we recommend a Taranis), and an FPV setup.

Below, we have listed each item you need, with a small summary of why.
