Video for Meteor85 (2021)
This is the new Meteor85 Analog VTX version with a new design frame that features a low profile of battery slot height, perfect for a 2S 450mAh battery, and comes with a new micro canopy for good airflow to decrease heat, and a new F4 1S 12A flight controller, supporting SPI ELRS 2.4G, and SPI Frsky. The SPI ELRS 2.4G and SPI Frsky versions also support external receiver and so can be used as PNP. The propulsion system, upgraded by adopting GF 2015 2-blade props with 1103 11000KV motors becomes more powerful and maneuverable for freestyle tricks. For pilots who want to fly a 2S HD whoop drone, Meteor85 HD digital VTX is a good choice.

BETAFPV upgraded all Meteor Series quadcopters like Meteor65, Meteor65 Pro, Meteor 75, and Meteor85 whoop quadcopters, through the new flight controller, motors, camera, frame, canopy, etc, to provide the best whoop drones for pilots.
The latest F4 1-2S 12A flight controllers are applied to all BNF versions of Meteor85. Both SPI ELRS 2.4G and SPI Frsky can be used as PNP due to extra solder pads for the external receiver. The SPI Frsky version also can be switched to the Futaba SFHSS protocol through the Betaflight configurator. The ESC on the new board powered by BB51 hardware comes with Bluejay 48k ESC firmware, allowing 1103 11000KV motors to give full play to the efficiency of power. We update the gyro to BOSH BMI270 for better performance and stability since the new F4 1-2S 12A FC.

Note: F4 1-2S 12A AIO SPI ELRS 2.4G comes with the default firmware betaflight_4.3.1_BETAFPVF4SX1280, which supports ELRS V2.0. ONLY the Betaflight firmware 4.3.0 and up start to support this BMI270 gyro. Please check the below link to download the firmware.
Download the firmware and CLI dump file for the F4 1-2S 12A FC ELRS or Frsky.
Equipped with 1103 11000KV Brushless Motors and Gemfan 2015 2-blade props. 1103 motors are designed for 2S quadcopters with incredible power, smooth and quiet operation, and light enough. Meteor adopts 2015 2-blade props, which are lighter and durable enough, offering pilots a high-efficiency flight experience.
The new Meteor85 whoop frame features a low profile of battery slot for a better trust-to-weight ratio and is perfect for BETAFPV 450mAh 2S battery. This design makes Meteor85 free from the battery strap and can protect the battery while the drone is landing. Using BETAFPV Micro Canopy for HD Camera, this canopy sports a hollow-out design, it allows more air to flow, greatly reducing the influence of heat on electronic parts. It can be also used for M03 Analog VTX. With an improvement in trust-to-weight ratio, pilots can fly real acro and enjoy the convenience, safety, and speed of a whoop-sized frame.
A customized Ant micro analog FPV camera is also provided on Meteor85 Brushless Whoop Quadcopter, which brings high-quality video and low RF interference. In addition, M03 25-350mW VTX is a high-quality 5.8GHz VTX including 25mW, 100mW, 200mW and 350mW. With 350mW output power, pilots can fly drones up to 600 meters away to explore more possibilities and fun.
The Meteor85 drone comes with "props out" in default. Why do 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.
