BETAFPV Air65 Brushless Whoop w/ ELRS 2.4GHz

great first drone, durable, relatively cheap, but not the easiest to fly indoors, practice in a simulator first, then try this nearby in an outdoor area first!

Great little whoop, it flies great and very fun to race with.

The frame is solid, the motors feel great and the overall package is good 👍

But i have two issues with it.

The co3 camera that came on mine is absolutely garbage. 3-4 minor crashes after getting it and the video turned yellow and never changed back. Tried to re-solder it, changed the wires, updated betaflight.. nothing. The video never got fixed. When i changed the camera everything was okay again.

The built in ELRS receiver stopped working properly within a month of getting it. This has not only happened to me but also to a friend of mine. Just out of nowhere, the ELRS range dropped to nothing. I have to keep the radio right next to the whoop for it to even connect, and the moment i take off the link drops. Tried reflashing everything, but nothing has fixed it so far.

Overall i would say it's a nice whoop, but in my experience it's not as durable as some of the other whoops i own.

I owned literally every mobula 6 generation drones and tried meteors too. But this one simply the best 65mm until they released v2 that i havent tried but i did motor swap on v2 to 30kkv and it became even better (champion)

Perfect whoop for indoors during winter.

Flies very well, and can take a beating. I personally can't easily remove the props, so I recommend one of those tinywhoop prop removal tools. Also the camera angle is a bit high. But the fact that this whoop flies like a 3-inch beats all this, and it deserves the 5-star rating!
