So, you’re looking to get started with first-person-view (FPV) drone flying but don’t want to spend a bundle on DJI products? BETAFPV, a leading manufacturer of ready-to-fly FPV drones and drone accessories, is offering some great discounts on its entire product range this Black Friday.

BETAFPV, a leading manufacturer of small but powerful FPV drones, has released a new 2.5-inch Pusher CineWhoop: Pavo25. And it’s got many exciting things that make it beginner-friendly – including the fact that you require only six screws to assemble the whoop duct and the drone.

This week on DroneDJ’s weekly live show, Yifei and Seth discuss some of the top stories from the past week. Check out the top stories this week and watch the live DroneDJ news round-up show below.

This is actually about two brand-new products, intended to work together as a pair. They are the BETAFPV Pavo360 drone, along with the SMO 360 – an ultralight, twin-lens 360° camera. If you’re into CineWhoops and 360 footage, it looks like an interesting combination.

Want to get started with first-person-view drone flying? Don’t want to spend a bundle? Look no further. BETAFPV’s new Cetus Pro FPV kit will take you from zero to hero in no time.

The recently released BETAFPV Pavo30 is the company’s first 3-inch pusher CineWhoop. We’ve got one in our hands but wanted to give you a preview until we can get out and fly the thing.

BETAFPV, a Shenzhen company that specializes in smaller drones, has unveiled a new addition to its lineup: It’s called the Pavo30 Whoop Quadcopter, and it’s got some interesting things going for it – including the fact it’s the company’s first 3″, pusher-style Whoop.

FPV drone manufacturer BETAFPV has launched its latest drone controller, the LiteRadio 2 SE, with improved specs over the previous generation. The updated controller features a much larger battery, higher power transmitter, and more.

Ever wonder what a great 360° capture by drone looks like? Well, wonder no longer.

Ahhh, winter. A great time to just stay indoors, binge on Netflix, and dream of warmer days. What it’s not that great for is improving your drone piloting skills, unless you’re using a simulator. We have another suggestion.

While on Reddit, I came across this epic video of an FPV drone making its way through a city center covered in Christmas lights while following a rollerblader. The footage shows how drones can be used to create shots that were never before possible.

We have something to show you. Released a couple of days ago, it’s worth having a look if you’re into the Cinewhoop.

The SMO 4K is the latest camera, from a collaboration project between BETAFPV x Insta360, designed to be used on FPV drones at just 30 grams. The SMO 4K is a stripped-down Insta360 ONE R looking to compete with the naked GoPros by providing you with a finished product.

We have now hit November, which means Black Friday is approaching, and there are less than 60 days until Christmas. So, it’s time to start gift shopping. Here are a few of the best drones to put under the tree this year for the tech junkie in your life or yourself.

UPDATE: DJI’s holiday sale is currently active with some pretty great deals on some of its latest drones. You can learn more about it here. Here at DroneDJ, we are giving away a brand new DJI Mavic Mini drone to one lucky winner in North America. You can enter here.

An interesting teaser has popped up online. We believe it’s pointing toward the release of a new drone and camera combo from two of Shenzhen’s heavyweights.

We’ve noted a few of the amazing deals out there earlier. We figured it made sense to round them up into one post!

It’s that time of year again: Shopping season. Editor-in-chief Scott Simmie is offering some personal recommendations on great stuff to add to your list.

BETAFPV has announced its Black Friday deals for this year with 20% off sitewide, double points for users, a giveaway, and some other great but rare deals. If you’re more of a Cyber Monday person, BETAFPV has you covered as well!

I’ll say this because I know it: Starting out in FPV isn’t the easiest thing in the world — especially if you have stick time with a really stable platform like the DJI products. Those drones almost fly themselves and don’t require constant input to maintain flight. FPV, therefore, comes with a very steep learning curve. But how best to get started?

While ordering a smaller FPV drone from BETAFPV, I came across the X-Knight 360 drone and couldn’t find any videos due to it being released last month. That changed when NURK uploaded a first-impressions video on the drone earlier this week.

There’s a new Cine-Whoop style drone around. And this one, which utilizes the expertise of drone manufacturer BetaFPV and 360° superstars Insta360, is going to grab some fans. Check out our sneak preview.
