So much power for this tiny quad. I'm new to fpv and this is probably not the most ideal starter drone but with a few tweaks and a bit more experience I should be able to get to grips with it.
I already have a small collection - 65, 75, 80mm. But this one is just incredible, the Air 65 surpassed all of them
Hi I am looking for one Air 65 champion if anyone want to sale 🙏
Crazy light, crazy performance, pretty durable.
. Love it!
The Air65 Race is a great tiny whoop. My suggestions for improvements would be motors with better energy efficiency. The HM 28kv motors are a lot better in this regard and allow almost 1 minute more flight time. The ELRS receiver has poor RF receiving sensitivity. The camera angle of the air canopy should be lower in the lowest setting. The C03 cam is ok, but I prefer Caddx Ant lite, due to clearer image quality and better light adaption capabilities.
