FPV Flight Controllers
Compare FPV flight controllers from Chinese manufacturers by processor, gyro, mounting size and input voltage: F405, F722 and H743 boards, AIOs and stacks.
FPV flight controllers only: Betaflight and INAV boards with F4, F7 and H7 processors, plus AIO boards and stacks. Pixhawk autopilots are on their own page. Listings run from whoop AIO boards to 30x30 stacks for 7-inch builds.
Quick selection guide
Whoops and toothpicks
AIO boards combine the flight controller and ESC, sometimes the receiver, on one small board.
5-inch builds
An F405 or F722 controller on a 30x30 or 20x20 stack with a matching 4-in-1 ESC.
Wings and heavier builds
H743 controllers with more UARTs and memory, for INAV wings, GPS and long-range builds.

What to check before you buy
- Processor
- F405 suits most freestyle builds; F722 and H743 add UARTs, speed and memory for more peripherals.
- Gyro
- Check the IMU fitted, and whether one firmware target covers every gyro the board may ship with.
- Mounting size
- Match the hole spacing (16x16, 20x20, 25.5x25.5 or 30x30 mm) to your frame and ESC.
- Input voltage and BEC
- Check the cell count the board accepts and the BEC outputs for the camera, VTX and receiver.
- UARTs and connectors
- Count the UARTs for receiver, GPS and video system, and check the plug for your digital air unit.
- Firmware
- Ask which Betaflight or INAV target the board uses and which version it ships with.
FPV flight controllers FAQ
F405, F722 or H743?
F405 covers most 5-inch freestyle and racing builds. F722 adds UARTs and speed. H743 has the most memory and ports, useful for INAV, GPS and wings.
What is an AIO flight controller?
A board with the flight controller and ESC, and sometimes the receiver, combined, used on whoops and small quads to save weight.
Stack or separate boards?
A stack is a flight controller sold with a matching 4-in-1 ESC and cable. Buying them together avoids wiring and mounting mismatches.
