About Kenny Nyhus Fadil
Kenny Nyhus Fadil is the publisher behind rotortechhq.com and a lifelong polymath whose benches finally took flight. He flies both halves of the hobby in Sweden — sub-250g camera drones for the landscape light, and FPV quads he builds and rebuilds at his own soldering station — with the battery discipline of someone who runs an electrical bench and the image standards of someone who tests lenses.
Background
Drones are where three of Kenny’s benches converge in midair: the camera eye, the soldering iron, and the battery bench. The lens literacy comes from years of evaluating optics on the ground; the soldering comes from the same station that builds his sim-racing button boxes; the LiPo discipline comes from running an electrical bench where battery casualness is not a personality trait. He did his apprenticeship the way he now preaches it — serious simulator hours before the first armed flight, a tinywhoop fleet for the indoor winters, and a 5-inch freestyle quad built from parts.
He manages a network of niche websites focused on craftsmanship and hands-on testing, and publishes that network openly. RotorTechHQ is the site where the benches leave the ground.
Specialties
- The entry path — sim hours, whoop first, the doctrine that saves beginners money and skin
- FPV building — component selection, soldering order, Betaflight setup, first-arm checklists
- Crash triage and repair — diagnosis order and rebuild logs from real crashes
- Camera-drone assessment — sensor size, gimbal behavior, and bitrate judged with ground-tested optics literacy
- LiPo care — charging, storage, transport, and retirement habits from a real battery bench
Testing Approach
Every flight verdict comes from Kenny’s own aircraft across four Swedish seasons; every build guide from quads assembled at his own bench; every repair sequence from the crash ledger. Regulations are stated as the rules he actually flies under — EU open category — and always pointed back at the reader’s own national aviation authority, because that’s the only source that counts.
