Meteor75 Lite Drone

The BETAFPV Meteor75 Lite is a redesigned version of the popular Meteor75

Equipped with a BT2.0 connector, which is proven to solve most of the problems of the PH2.0 connector common for micro drones, including the problem of voltage drop / sag, which on the output allows pilots Enjoy full 3-4 minutes flight on 1S 450mAh battery.

BT2.0 connector

BT2.0 connector - a revolutionary connector type for 1S micro drones, developed by BETAFPV engineers as a highly efficient alternative replacement for the obsolete PH2.0 connector. Provides a significant difference in power efficiency compared to its predecessor. The developer notes the following advantages of the BT2.0 connector:

  • Effectively reduces the internal resistance of the connector by upgrading the crimp contacts to 1mm Banana connector and increasing its cross-sectional area.
  • Resolves undervoltage / sag issue. Discharging LiPo battery with BT2.0 connector becomes more efficient. Pilots can enjoy long flight times without worrying about overcharging the battery.
  • Battery with BT2.0 connector provides stable current / voltage output and high efficiency. All 1S brushless drones get powerful and flawless performance from this type of battery.
  • Ideal for Emax Tinyhawk quads, as the connector provides consistent and consistent power that achieves dynamic balance and longer flight times.
  • Compared to PH2.0 crimp contacts, BT2.0 connector is more durable, it can deliver more current at the same capacity and provide much more power.

Comparison chart

Below you can see the comparison chart from the developer between BETAFPV 1S 450 mAh 30C batteries with BT2.0 connector and Emax 1S 450 mAh 80C with connector PH2.0. In this test, the discharge current is 11A. Obviously, a BT2.0 battery has a longer discharge time and an improved voltage sag, resulting in better flight performance.

LiteRadio 2 Remote

GETFPV LiteRadio 2 Transmitter is a remote control designed specifically for piloting FPV drones. Fully compatible with Frsky D8 protocol and easy to use. Works on OpenTX firmware. Supports connection to a computer for training piloting through the FPV simulator, and a Student Radio mode is also available, which allows you to combine two equipment, where a third-party remote control will play the role of teacher equipment, and the LiteRadio 2 remote control - student, which will allow control the trainee as much as possible during training flights.

Visual instruction from the developer on how to quickly pair the drone with the remote control.

VR01 FPV Goggles

BETAFPV VR01 FPV Goggles - FPV goggles designed and tuned specifically for dynamic flying in first person mode. Built on a 4.3-inch HD high-brightness LCD display with 800 × 480 pixels, paired with a high-quality 92% transparency lens, providing 2.8x FPV image magnification without distortion or blur. The built-in high-sensitivity 5.8GHz 40-channel RaceBand receiver is responsible for receiving the video signal. An automatic search function is available with the display of the current frequency on the screen, and thanks to the built-in DVR, you can record FPV flight to a TF card (up to 30GB).

the comfort for which is the calculated ergonomic design of the front panel with an elastic foam-based coating. Combined with a soft 3-way adjustable headband, they provide a snug and comfortable fit for all age groups. The claimed battery life is about 2 hours.
