How many flights on that LiPo? When was the last time you reflashed your FC? BitacuDrone is the logbook FPV pilots actually use to keep their fleet airworthy. Quads, batteries, transmitters, flights and maintenance — all in one place. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. YOUR FLEET AT A GLANCE Add every build with photos, a status flag (O.K., Warning, K.O., Crashed) and the full spec sheet: frame, motors, KV, ESC, FC, VTX, receiver, camera, props and battery setup. FLIGHT LOGBOOK Log every session with the built-in timer or a manual duration, plus location, outcome and the packs you flew. Each flight bumps the LiPo cycle count and the quad's total airtime for you. MAINTENANCE YOU WON'T FORGET Per-drone task lists with priorities. That loose motor screw, the receiver that keeps cutting out — write it down, mark it done, keep the full history. BATTERIES THAT AGE GRACEFULLY Track your whole LiPo collection: brand, capacity, cell count, chemistry (LiPo / LiHV / Li-Ion) and charge cycles. Cycles climb on their own as you fly. STATS THAT ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING Charts for fleet status, flight time per quad, battery health and pending tasks. Built natively with Swift Charts. Quick on iPhone, iPad and Mac. ICLOUD, YOUR WAY Everything syncs through your own iCloud — never our servers. Nothing leaves your devices unless you say so. No sign-up, ever.
