In addition you will need:
An RC transmitter. The Kopis 2 can ship with an FrSky receiver or no receiver at all.
LiPo battery and charger.
FPV goggles if you want to fly FPV. There are many compatible options, including these ones from Fatshark. You can also use DJI FPV goggles if you have the HDV version of the Kopis 2.
INFO
FPV support is completely independent of PX4/flight controller.
Flashing PX4 Bootloader
The Kopis 2 comes preinstalled with Betaflight.
Before loading PX4 firmware you must first install the PX4 bootloader. Instructions for installing the bootloader can be found in the Kakute F7 topic (this is the flight controller board on the Kopis 2).
TIP
You can always reinstall Betaflight later if you want!

Once the bootloader is installed, you should be able to connect the vehicle to QGroundControl via a USB cable.

To install and configure PX4:
- Load PX4 Firmware.
- Set the Airframe to Holybro Kopis 2.
- Continue with basic configuration, including sensor calibration and radio setup.
