Building my first drone
So what you're talking about and confusing, it seems to me, is your flight controller and your radio transmitter. Your flight controller will have a radio receiver that is bound to your radio transmitter. Your flight controller will have your ESCs, receiver, and video transmitter connected to it. Flight controller is what translates what you tell your quad to do with your transmitter into actual motor speed changes whereas radio receiver just takes the signals you send with your transmitter and relays them to the flight controller. Before you rush out and just buy a thousand dollars worth of stuff, i highly suggest you check out Joshua Bardwell's youtube - in particular his series on leaning to build a racing drone and his introductory flying videos. Feel free to ask any more questions, I do have half a clue at least - also welcome to the moneypit...er hobby.
