FPV-DB MCP

An official Model Context Protocol server providing read-only access to FPV-DB's independent database of drone components and firmware data. It allows agents to retrieve detailed specifications for quads, motors, batteries, props, stacks, cameras, and VTXs, as well as query Betaflight and INAV firmware CLI settings, diffs, and compatibility checks.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

What you can do with it

  • Retrieve full specifications and source URLs for specific FPV drone components
  • Check differences between two firmware releases using fw_diff
  • Validate a pasted CLI diff against a specific firmware release
  • Search and filter components by technical specifications

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Spec sheets of FPV drone parts (motors, quads, batteries, props, stacks, cameras, VTX) and the Betaflight and INAV CLI settings of each release (Betaflight from settings.c with defaults read off SITL builds, INAV from settings.yaml resolved by its own generator). Parts data CC BY 4.0, firmware data GPL-3.0; cite the page URL each result carries. Spec sheets only - no reviews or rankings.

fw_param — Betaflight / INAV CLI setting
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

One CLI setting of a firmware release: type, allowed range or values, firmware default (with no board config), the source line (settings.c or settings.yaml), and its history across releases (renames, range and default changes). Old names are followed through sourced renames.

fw_diff — Betaflight / INAV settings diff

fw_check_cli — Check a Betaflight or INAV diff
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Checks a pasted `diff all` / `dump` against a release: every `set` line whose setting does not exist, was renamed or removed, or whose value is out of range or not in the value list, plus lines that only repeat the firmware default. The release of the paste is read from its `# Betaflight / ... X.Y.Z` or `# INAV/<target> X.Y.Z` header, which also picks the firmware when none is given. Other commands (aux, serial, resource) are counted, not checked.

part_specs — FPV part spec sheet
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

The full spec sheet of one part by its slug (the last segment of its fpv-db.com URL, e.g. iflight-xing2-2207 for /motors/iflight-xing2-2207/): specs, bench thrust table where measured, VTX table where published, the sources the specs were verified against, and caveats.

search_parts — Search FPV parts
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Finds published parts of one type by spec. `filters` maps a spec field to a number (equals, or any element of a list), a string (case-insensitive substring) or {min, max} (numeric range). `query` matches brand and model. An unknown field returns the type's field list. Example: type=motor, filters={"stator": "2207", "weight_g": {"max": 33}}.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http fpv-db-mcp https://fpv-db.com/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add fpv-db-mcp --url https://fpv-db.com/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable fpv-db-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fpv-db-mcp": {
      "url": "https://fpv-db.com/mcp"
    }
  }

  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http fpv-db-mcp https://fpv-db.com/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
