BetaFPV Pavo360 Cinematic FPV Quadcopter

Key Features

• The Pavo360 is the first 360 FPV drone with landing gear generated by BETAFPV. Compared with X-Knight 360 FPV Quadcopter, it protects the camera lens when the quadcopter takes down from air to surface, the Pavo360 is able to land on most flat surfaces.
• Both analog and HD Digital VTX versions come with Toothpick F722 AIO 35A FC, 2204-2400KV motor & Gemfan D76 5-Blades props, this highly efficient propulsion system lays the foundation for powerful and stable flight.
• Equipped with a newly developed Pavo360 frame, which is made of PA12 material, it has higher abrasion resistance, toughness, and shows excellent impact resistance in drop & impact tests.
• The ultra-thin and flat frame design with SMO 360 Camera (not included) makes it possible to record and enjoy the 360 videos without any unseen areas. Pavo360 is perfectly called an invisible drone.
• There are two versions for Pavo360 FPV Quadcopter. Both versions support the SMO360 Camera. Please note that the Pavo360 camera mount is suitable for the SMO360 Camera only and other cameras can not be installed. We highly recommend buying BETAFPV SMO 360 Camera together.

BETAFPV SMO 360 Camera

A high-degree ultralight action panoramic camera designed for Pavo360 FPV Drones! Developed by BETAFPV using Insta360 technology, SMO 360 camera only weighs 55g and is perfectly fitted for Pavo360 FPV drones. The distance between the 2 lenses is 40mm, giving more room to the drone height. Meanwhile, with the FlowState stabilization function, pilots can shoot panoramic video and get an ultra-smooth and stable video, which makes the SMO 360 camera the best choice for pilots in search of high-quality 360 videos with FPV drones!

The Pavo360 drone set does not come with the SMO 360 Camera. Therefore, to better enjoy the Pavo360 FPV quadcopter, we highly recommend buying BETAFPV SMO 360 Camera together.

HD Digital / Analog VTX

The Pavo360 is available in either an Analog or HD Digital FPV configuration

Caddx Polar Vista Camera is an HD digital FPV camera with excellent performance. It is lightweight, only 28g (Camera and VTX). The camera has a large wide camera angle. The video quality reaches 720p / 60fps. Low delay HD image transmission and brilliant night photography are the highlights of it as an FPV camera. Together with Pavo360’s unique frame design and strong propulsion system, the camera can give full play to FPV racing and bring you a hearty flight experience.

The Caddx Ratel is a great camera choice for both night flights as well as during the day! Equipped with a high-quality 1/1.18″ HDR sensor, it provides up to 0.0001 Sensitivity of lux. It is very versatile in that you can switch between PAL and NTSC video and also between 4:3 and 16:9 video formats. Latency is super low at only 8ms.

A02 5.8G VTX is a lightweight, small size, and high-quality 25-800mW VTX, it offers a selectable 25/200/500/800mW output power for extreme range FPV flight. With 800mW output power, pilots can fly drones up to 1100 meters away to explore more possibilities and fun.

Integrated Landing Gear

New and incredible design for the Pavo360. BETAFPV efforts to improve the durability, performance, and creativity of drones. With the landing gear, which protects the camera lens when the quadcopter takes down from air to surface, the Pavo360 is able to land on most flat surfaces.

Note: Although the Pavo360 equips with landing gear that is designed for protecting the SMO 360 camera lens, further protection is necessary. We strongly recommend using a Smo360 lens guard (sold separately).

After binding, you can control the extension or retraction of the landing gear on the 8th channel toggle switch (default settings) of your transmitter. This function setting is available to be changed on your transmitter or flight controller.
