• Special Operation Spiderweb: New Mission in UFDS - 30 September 2026

  A new mission has arrived in Ukrainian Fight Drone Simulator. “Spiderweb” recreates a real operation carried out by the Center for Special Operations “A” of the Security Service of Ukraine, bringing players closer to the precision, pressure, and decision-making behind one of the most notable drone operations of the war.The mission was developed with insights from drone operators who took part in the real operation. One of the pilots also personally tested the UFDS reconstruction, and here’s what he thinks about it:“Spiderweb” is the first mission in a new UFDS format the team calls “immersive epic” – interactive reconstructions of notable drone operations. More missions based on real events are planned for the future!Update UFDS on Steam and try Spiderweb now. Haven’t played yet? Get UFDS and experience Spiderweb for yourself. ;)Have fun and feel free to share your feedback!

• How scoring works in UFDS - 9 August 2026

  In shortYou earn points for what you do in a mission: every gate you pass, every target you destroy, and where you place at the finish.In most modes, there is also a time bonus, and it is usually far bigger than everything else put together. The easiest way to picture it:You start with 1200 points, and every second you spend costs you one of them.It is counted down to the millisecond, not rounded to whole seconds. Finishing 0.4 seconds faster gives you exactly 0.4 more points. That is why your time reads as something like 0:07.482, and why two runs that look identical can still be separated on the leaderboard. So a good run comes down to four things:Be fast. A second is a point, one for one.Do not crash. In the arcade races a respawn costs 10 points on top of the time you lose.Pass the gates. Each one is worth points.Destroy enemy troops and vehicles. Worth points in every mode except t…

• 🛠 FPV PID Tuning Guide - Understanding Your Flight Controller Settings - 24 April 2026

  Hey everyone! We know PID tuning can look complex at first: lots of numbers, lots of parameters, and changing one thing seems to affect everything else. Don’t worry. This guide breaks it down so you can understand what each setting does and how to adjust it with confidence.The BasicsYour flight controller constantly monitors its position and decides how hard to correct any deviation from your stick input. P, I, and D are the three parameters that control this behavior.kP (Proportional) – reacts to how far off the quad is right now. Big error means big correction. This is the primary response. Higher values make the quad feel locked in and responsive. Too high and it starts oscillating - overcorrecting, then overcorrecting the overcorrection. Too low and the quad feels sluggish and unresponsive.kI (Integral) – notices small errors that keep adding up over time. Wind pushing you sideways?…
