The best small FPV quadcopter video recorder

Drones have become increasingly popular in the last years, from simpler use just for fun to professional use in competitions. Regardless of its use, the search for the best small FPV quadcopter has also risen, which is a specific drone category, focusing on small package, high agility performance, and a good video recording quality. Keeping up with this growing demand, many stores appear to offer a product with these properties, such as Horus RC.

A product that fits perfectly on that category mentioned before is Beta FPV HX115 115mm HD Toothpick Drone built-in FrSky RXSR receiver, a drone with great performance on a small package. The quality of its construction, design, and technology is impressive, as you can see in this article. Check out Horusrc.com for more products and you are sure to find what you are looking for there! HorusRC's high-quality products are a reference in the radio-controlled aircraft market.

Overview

The Beta FPV HX115 115mm HD Toothpick Drone built-in FrSky RXSR receiver, which can be found in the Horus RC website, is a freestyle drone capable of recording videos in HD. This drone is equipped with a customized high-definition camera and made of light carbon fiber structure, which turns it into the best small FPV quadcopter in its category.

Apart from its small size, the first impression one gets when holding this drone is its lightness. To achieve such impressive dimensions, the main struct is made of carbon fiber and the entire circuit is surrounded by a resistant plastic, increasing its durability, resistance to impacts and decreasing its size and weight, without exceeding 250g. These properties make this drone great for those who have just started learning to fly FPV drones or those who do obstacle racing flights.

System

In order to adapt to different flight performance conditions, the Beta FPV HX115 HD has a unique ability to operate with two different flight configurations in combination with the 5000KV brushless motors. The first configuration is a 3S 450mAh battery with 3-blade propellers, and the second is a 4S 450mAh battery with 2-blade props, bringing to users the perfect fit for an FPV flight experience.

Integrated with small circuits boards, the main controller is a Toothpick F4 2-4S AIO Flight Controller with a high-performance STM processor and tuned with Betaflight MATEKF411 (MK41). The circuit modularity is a strong point of this quadcopter. Since the component's cables are not directly soldered to the plate, it is easy to fix or replace them.

 

The last component of this drone to talk about is its cameras, which is the main highlight of this drone, despite its small figure. Equipped with customized high-definition camera RunCam Split 3 Nano, that features of low latency TV-OUT (40MS) and an HD video record recording, it brings to the user the best small FPV quadcopter flying experience, one that impresses with its high image quality, better than what the customers could normally get from a standard SD cam.

The last component of this drone to talk about is its cameras, which is the main highlight of this drone, despite its small figure. Equipped with customized high-definition camera RunCam Split 3 Nano, that features of low latency TV-OUT (40MS) and an HD video record recording, it brings to the user the best small FPV quadcopter flying experience, one that impresses with its high image quality, better than what the customers could normally get from a standard SD cam.

The specs of this camera unit are pretty good even for its size, which can record on MOV file format on 1080P at 60fps and 16:9 aspect ratio with recording FOV (field of view) of 165°. There are also more options under these configurations. To store so much information, the maximum SD card memory size is up to 64Gb capacity, with the recommended memory write speed of class 10 or above (UHS-1 ~ UHS-3).

However, if the goal is to get only a high performance over a high definition video recording, there is a version of this drone, Beta FPV HX115 115mm FPV Toothpick Drone, that can also be found at Horusrc.com. The freestyle mode without the high image recording weights even less, increasing, even more, its capability to get the optimum flight experience on a quadcopter.

As for the FPV video transmission, the spec is impressive. As was mentioned before, the camera unit has a low latency transmission. Usually, it is necessary to sacrifice the image quality to achieve satisfactory performance on a common drone camera. This drone uses a 4:3 aspect ratio and FOV of 130° with a sharp WDR (wide dynamic range) FPV camera for a better ambient view during the flight of the best small FPV quadcopter.
