HD DVR VERSION

The primary purpose of the Beta85X drone is for a cinematic whoop drone. Many pilots revamp their Beta75X to HD whoop drone--They add an HD DVR camera on Beta75X drone to get high definition and beautiful flying footage and video. Inspired by this, we want to provide a BNF whoop drone with HD DVR camera by default so that pilot does not need to assemble it by hand and also get more power on punch for acro mode.

Now the Beta85X HD version is here !!!

Inspirations by YKS' footage with Beta75X.

Know more about cine whoop from NURK FPV's blog.

In the Beta85X design, the part of HD DVR is independent of the drone. You could mount or remove the HD DVR part very easy. In default, the drone comes with CADDX Turtle V2 HD camera.

The canopy for HD DVR camera is 3d printing with SLA, which is compatible with Runcam Split Mini 2.

BLHELI_32 ESC

BLHeli_32 is the 3rd generation ESC firmware after BLHeli and BLHeli_S, which is written for ESC‘s that utilize 32-bit MCU. With the increase in processing power, faster input signals with lower latency and higher update rate would be possible in BLHeli_32, such as Dshot1200!

Beta85X is the first 2" BNF drone that supports BLHeli_32 ESC. With the other power system parts, EMAX Avan 2" propellers and 1105 6000KV motors, it gives you the highest performance in the flying experience.

Know more about BLHeli_32 ESC from Oscarliang's blog.

AXII ANTENNA

We lost a bunch of prototype drones because of this AXII antenna. Why? The 5.8g VTX signal is still perfect when the RC radio transmitter connection break. This is why we choose this micro antenna for the Beta85X.

Micro AXII 5.8GHz Antenna is the next evolution of the world's most popular FPV antenna, designed by TrueRC and manufactured by Lumenier.

Know more about Micro AXII 5.8G antennas.

PROPS OUT

The Beta85X drone also comes with "props out" by default. Why we need "props out" direction?

Default Betaflight props direction, quadcopter dips and "washes out" in hard corners. With reversed props or "props out", no more dipping even in hardest cornering.

Know more about "Props Out".

CUSTOMIZED EOS2

Which camera is most popular on brushless whoop drones? That must be CADDX EOS2. Lighter, smaller but still have perfect image performance. Now it is the stock camera for Beta85X drone.  At the same time, the 5.8g VTX board has all the other function of the Z02 camera, like output power switchable between 0mW, 25mW, and 200mW. Smart audio is available for VTX remote control in default.

The EOS2 camera comes with the FPV version of Beta85X drone. The camera tilt angle is switchable from 25 degrees to 45. So that it could support different flying situations (indoors and outdoors alike).

How to change the frequency or output power via remote control, please check the manual Smart Audio.
