BETAFPVPavo20 Brushless Whoop Quadcopter with HD Digital Bracket for O3 Air Unit, F4 2-3S 20A FC, 1103 8500KV Motor, COB LED Strip, Compatible for FPV Racing Indoor and Outdoor

Early review:Just received, and put the 03 air unit into the pavo frame in about 10 minutes binding included.I'm running it with the DJI fpv controller2 - first time I've run a non DJI drone with a DJI radio. Was a little sketch. I dunno why.It flies amazingly well! The tune is obviously tailored to the build as it is meant to be. I have another pavo 20 frame that I run analog - for fun, while I fly the spare parts around... and as smooth as that one is, this is silk with loc-tite. Smooth and locked in. I love it. It doesn't give super long flights, but I am also using small capacity batteries - 300-550mah HV 3s. The power is great on 3s, but still flies well on 2. Better for indoors, if you have a small house for sure!I've been flying several BetaFPV builds and RTF drones lately, and I find them to be a great balance of affordability and performance. I'm a casual drone pilot, so they fit. And I am rarely disappointed - in fact, they have been proactive with customer satisfaction, reaching out to me about an issue I wrote about. It feels like they're in it with me, and I like that.Overall, the pavo 20 as I run it has been a great surprise out of the box! Very happy! The entire power train is only 105-120 depending where you get it, and although several hd rigs will fit the mount, the 03 air fits like a glove, and makes for a quick, easy process. I was flying in 10 minutes!The cob LED looksgreat, but I am currently having issues switching it on and off. Probably me. I will update this review after I've put it to some work, crashed it a bit, and see if the sweet sweet taste begins to sour in time. I hope the aftertaste is as good as the first sip! Way to go, BETAfpv!

First drone ever owned. Flying under the recreational flyer act. This drone is awesome, managed to fly for more than 2 minutes without crashing today, on my first ever maiden flight outside. Calculated 30 crashes based in the amounts of videos automatically created. The drone did not break. Note that DJI remotes only supports Mode 1 and Mode 2 controller scheme for flying. When practicing on simulators, ensure you pick one of this, and not Mode 3 or 4.Tips to others configuring the Pavo with both a setup with both a DJI controller 2 and Googles.1- UART is on port 52- update both controller and O3 air unit for initial setup and binding.3- On the Googles, set the video to HD to match canvas from Betaflight. This would align the desired OSD on the screen.4-I ran into a known behavior, where after configuration and paring the drone, the throttle would not work, but the other channels did. This prevented the drone from ascending after arming. To resolve this, make sure to backup your current save so you can restore from it afterward in betaflight. I updated the F4 controller using the text format firmware file through CLI(command line interface) in Betaflight, and then reloading my old configuration file afterward. The firmware can be found from Betafpv site.5- Camera resolution set to 1080p/100fps will produce lower transmission latency while in FPV.6- Watch the weight with battery on drone, it will influence the flying characteristics. On a windy day, I tried a 730MAH 2s battery and it was difficult to have control. It sag down too often. A 3S 550mAh battery performed well though. I was afraid it would be too fast, but it was just about right. Managed to keep the drone under control with it.7-You need to practice on the drone simulators. With about 4 hours of practice myself, I need way more. Still a amateur.8- For first flight, I would suggest to try it outdoor and away from people. Avoid flying on windy day.9- In Betaflight, mode “user 1” is the assigned function that handles the LED strip. You can assign a AUX key to toggle the light one and off.

Pretty awesome little whoop but it's nothing compared to the pro. Save your money and buy a pro. They are very smooth and get great footage with an 03 battery life is really good. They're not very good at pulling out of a dive or freestyle but it is doable if you learn how to fly through it. Honestly though if you can get a pavo20 pro don't spend the money on this. Get the pro it's a hundred times better in every aspect.

So I bought these drones well 3 of them plan on getting more because there literally that fun I had absolutely no problems uart 5 everything g bound up all three of them my daughter and my son we have literally been flying these everyday they are a blast now to get down to it the drone is made for slower speeds and it's really smooth but if u want to push it like it do it does actually rip pretty fast ive built 40 5 inch drones 10 long range drones and i literally forbthe past month have been sculpting my house and yard for a race track in and out love these little guys i run all zee batts rc trucks all my drones I've bought 8 of those zee batts 850 mah ran ever batt..and have had no issues amd I was a little nervous going full acro on it but it actually has enough power to power loop but still be cautious because it does have good power for a little guy but not so much to save it on a huge dive the outter frame does take some spills but will crack not the end of it though u can take that off and just fly the carbon portion I'm buying 3 more just for back up and it actually is a ripper u can push it to rip if u want i run zee batts in all my stuff and the 850 mah perfect size fits right in the slot at the bottom getting 5 to 8 min of flight time ive bought 8 of those batts all 8 had no issues so far after a month of flying everyday so once again great drone

Abysmal. It's like this was purchased, taken apart, returned and just shipped it back out like nothing was wrong. Wires were ripped from plugs and then the Adapter for the plug was ripped from the flight controller all together.

There is no real point in getting this drone, since the Pavo20 Pro bests it in pretty much every single way. It's a fine drone, but the pro is the same price.

I love this drone as it has a bit better time in the air than the 20 pro and it seems very robust
