BetaFPV is continuing to take advantage of the increasing popularity of the open-source RC link ExpressLRS offering various antennas, modules, flight controllers and even a radio that benefit from its relatively low costs, yet impressive low-latency and long-range benefits. And now they’ve updated their Meteor range of whoops with ExpressLRS 2.4-ready versions.
The Meteor65, Meteor75 and the Meteor86 ELRS versions all come with an upgraded F4 1S 5A FC (ELRS 2.4g) flight controller with receiver built-in and an M03 5.8G VTX specially designed to increase the range of whoops with an improved power output of up to 350mW.
