Analysis and real-world uses
The BETAFPV Air65 II Freestyle is a brushless tiny whoop with a 65 mm wheelbase for indoor and outdoor freestyle. Weighing just 18 g without a battery, it uses a three-point flight-controller mount and a reinforced Air II canopy to improve crash resistance.
It has 0702 25,000 KV motors and a Matrix 1S 5IN1 II flight controller with 12A continuous ESCs, 18A peak, integrated 2.4 GHz ELRS V3, and an adjustable 25–400 mW analog 5.8 GHz VTX.
This is the quad only: no controller or goggles are included. It requires a compatible LAVA II 1S 280–300 mAh battery, sold separately, and a compatible ELRS transmitter. The Freestyle version is tuned for smooth control at low throttle and flowing cinematic flight.
Strengths
- Crash-resistant design with a three-point mount and reinforced canopy
- Integrated ELRS V3
- Powerful 0702 motors for its size
- Individual components are easy to replace
- Lightweight: 18 g without a battery
Things to consider
- Controller, goggles, and batteries are sold separately
- Requires analog goggles; this version has no HD option
- Real-world flight time of around five minutes
