BETAFPV - Meteor75 Series

The meteor75 was not my first quad, but I wish it was. Buy more batteries and a vifly LiHV charger - buy extra props and a few sets of screws too, the 50 pack may seem like overkill but I have gone through so many of the 1.4m canopy and motor screws already. I would also get a pack of the BT2.0 connectors just in case. that is the one problem with the meteor75, the pigtail is easy to catch in a prop and gets alot of use every time I have to swap batteries. I also went with 'genuine' machine EV800D goggles which have been great.

Oh yeah digital is totally worth it. I have a ton of fun with my BetaFPV Meteor75 Walksnail. The video quality from the O4 Lite is even better.

1. That's a very broad question but since you specified racing it narrows it down a bit. 1. Analog and HDZero are the best video system options for racing. 2. It's often recommended to start small. The Air 65/75 and Meteor 65/75 tinywhoops from BetaFPV are fun to fly and relatively cheap and durable. 2. Most RTF kits like those from BetaFPV are not recommended. Their controllers and goggles are very cheap. Getting a BNF drone ( bind and fly ) and pairing it with a quality controller and pair of goggles is usually a better option. 3. You can easily get an analog setup including batteries and charger within this budget. HDZero goggles alone are $650 so that is not an option for you - yet. 4. Start with a controller and simulator! 1. Find some drone racing events near you. See what kind of drones they are flying and get to know the community. Most events are very friendly and welcoming of newbies.
