Greetings,

My name is Andrey. I'm from Kyiv, Ukraine. I studied in India for 3 months in 2017-2028 (CDAC, Noida- "Big Data Analytics" program via ITEC scholarship).

I assemble small FPV quadrocopters using components from China (frame, flight controller, electronic speed controller, motors, camera, VTX, RX, propellers - also batteries, but those are made in Ukraine). These days we in Ukraine have problems with components since the Chinese government enforced a ban on exporting such types of goods to many countries. Therefore I try to understand whether buying these components from India is possible.

Most of all I'm interested in flight controllers, electronic speed controllers, motors, cameras, and VTX. I will call it "needed FPV drone components" from now on. I have the following 3 questions and I would be very grateful if you can provide answers:

1. Are there any manufacturers in India that produce needed FPV drone components without using Chinese parts and have a full cycle of production in India? If yes, can you please provide names and links? For example, we buy a lot of Chinese stacks (FC+ESC) called Speedy Bee - is there an Indian analog? Same for motors, cameras, etc.

2. How can these needed FPV drone components be delivered to Europe - for example, to Poland if Ukraine is not reachable? For example, for Chinese FPV drone components, we use a service called Ali Express. It is extremely simple - you just go to the site, take goods, checkout and they are delivered to Ukraine. Is there any Indian site like that or other service that we can use for this purpose? Or is it possible via Amazon?

3. This forum seems to be about RC in general. We are interested particularly in small FPV quadrocopters and their components. Is there any other website/forum where we can get more info about the FPV drone market in India? Maybe, you can suggest some subject matter experts in it for us to have a call?

Our short-term goal is to try to order needed FPV drone components from India to assemble 1 or 2 drones and to test them. Our long-term goal is to try to order Indian FPV drone components on a bigger scale since Chinese suppliers have installed barriers and we can no longer rely on them.

Thank you a lot. You can answer here or write me in Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/andrey.tymofeiuk

Have a nice day!
