写真内の注釈の通り、ELRSレシーバーを使う場合、このPort1しか使えません。ちなみにGPSもこのPort1しか使えないので、結果としてELRSレシーバーを使う場合はGPSは使えません。OMG😢これは痛い。ちなみに、BETAFPVが公式的にCLIを公開していますが、このCLIを実行しても改善しません。CLI for Pavo 25
The Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter is a 2.5-inch FPV pusher drone developed by BETAFPV. The new frame design optimizes its structure to decrease complex components and only requires 6 screws to assemble the whoop duct and drone, which is convenient to build. Made of high-quality PA12 material, it features a strong injected mold frame for durable use. What’s more, it supports carrying many FPV cameras available in the market for FPV shots. Also, it adopts Caddx Nebula Pro Nano Vista Kit for the HD Digital version, and Caddx Baby Ratel2+A03 400mW 5.8G for the Analog VTX version. Pavo25 is the cinewhoop for you to fly both indoors and outdoors!
Note: Walksnail HD Digitial VTX version is released now. It should be used with Walksnail goggles, which you need to buy separately. By the way, Pavo25 Walksnail Whoop Kit will be launched next week, including Walksnail goggles, LiteRadio 3, and Pavo25 Walksnail Whoop Quadcopter. The kit version including Walksnail googles is sold as a limited edition. First come, first served.
Bullet Point
Only 6 screws to assemble the whoop duct and drone, convenient to build. The Pavo25 whoop quadcopter sports a reasonable design of structure assembly that is optimized to decrease complex components, making the build easy.
Equipped with a CNC Vista Adapter. It effectively provides the Caddx Vista HD Digital VTX with a good cool down by increasing the heat dissipation area, ensuring a flight in a safe VTX RF power, especially which is important for long-distance flight.
The Pavo25 whoop quadcopter adopts an innovative pusher frame with a duct design, which generates more lift for the whole quadcopter, improving the ability of endurance and propulsion.
Made of high-quality PA12 material and 2.5mm carbon fiber. With a strong and durable frame kit, the Pavo25 whoop quadcopter grants more stable flight and optimizes the vibration damping structure for the camera mount, allowing pilots to get an excellent experience.
User-friendly designs. The USB port on the top of the frame makes it convenient to configure the quadcopter. Pavo25 whoop quadcopter features a rear LED with colorful lights, giving a cool and visual performance in the dark.
Balance layout for the whole quadcopter. When carrying an action camera like SMO 4K, or DJI Action 2, you can move the battery position and add the second battery strap to keep the center of gravity, preventing it from tilting to one side.
The HD digital VTX version boasts a colorful and excellent image with 720P/120FPS high frame rate video in Nebula Pro Nano camera, bringing the feast for the eyes.
The Analog VTX version comes with a Caddx Baby Ratel2 camera that has a 1/18″ inch starlight HDR sensor with 1200TVL resolution, and A03 400mW VTX which is an open-source video transmitter with PIT/RCE/100mW/400mW adjustable output power.
Walksnail HD VTX version equips with Walksnail Avatar HD Kit. Provides 1080P recording with 22ms ultra-low latency. Dual-antenna design for up to 4 km long-range transmission. Build-in 8 GB storage, it is convenient for recording video and can be exported by USB cable. Supports Betaflight full OSD display through Canvas Mode on Avatar VTX.

Comparison to Beta95X V3
Let’s see what has changed in the updates for Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter. Compared with the Beta95X V3, Pavo25 is made of PA12 material with injected molding, which improves the stability of the flight, dampening the noise and eliminating the Jelly Effect. Besides, with an optimized damping structure and no need for rubber dumpers, it is able to carry more heavy action cameras like DJI Action 2. What’s more, large capacity batteries like 4S 750mAh/850mAh are supported, which ensures a long-time flight and endurance.
Camera & VTX System
Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter Analog VTX version comes with a Caddx Baby Ratel2 camera that has a 1/18″ inch starlight HDR sensor with 1200TVL resolution, and an A03 400mW OpenVTx video transmitter which supports SmartAudio&Tramp protocol with PIT/RCE/100/400mW adjustable output power. Therefore, pilots can customize the output power and frequency to explore more possibilities and have fun.
Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter HD Digital version equips with Caddx Nebula Pro Nano Vista Kit that perfectly supports DJI goggles. With DJI goggles, it can provide 720p/120FPS digital high-definition picture and a transmission output range up to 4km. Users can select 25mW/200mW/500mW/700mW from DJI goggle settings. The total weight (excluding the antenna) is 23g only. Besides, it is smaller and designed for whoop drones.
Walksnail HD Digital VTX
Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter Walksnail HD Digital VTX version features Avatar HD Kit with Avatar HD system that uses H.265 high-efficiency video coding, an industry-leading technology, providing 1080P/720P resolution image recording with 22ms ultra-low latency. The signals are stronger and more stable with a dual-antenna design for up to 4 km long-range transmission. Build-in 8 GB storage, the Avatar VTX has the capability of recording HD video without interference from capacity and exporting video by USB cable. Besides, with Canvas Mode on Avatar VTX, Betaflight full OSD display is supported and can be adjusted easily by remote control.
Pavo25 Frame Kit
Pavo25 frame is made of high-quality PA12 material with strong and durable injected molding, which grants more stable flight and no fear of damage. The whole frame with pusher and duct design can generate more lift for the whole quadcopter, improving the ability of endurance and propulsion. Besides, the vibration damping structure for the camera mount is optimized to carry an action camera easily, allowing pilots to have an excellent experience.
What’s more, it comes with aCNC Vista Adapter, which effectively provides the Caddx Vista HD Digital VTX with a good cool down by increasing the heat dissipation area, reducing the influence of heat on VTX.
Note: If you need to buy CNC Vista Adapter separately, please click here. This CNC Vista Adapter is not suitable for Walksnail Avatar VTX. The Walksnail HD VTX version includes a CNC adapter designed for Walksnail Avatar VTX.
FC & ESC
Pavo25 whoop quadcopter is equipped with the Toothpick F405 AIO 20A FC V4 BMI270, it extremely reduces the weight while improving the ability of the ESC to continuous current 20A, and brings pilots more power to fly the Pavo25 quad! Meanwhile, 20A FC V4 has 2 pin connector ports for DJI Digital VTX and RX, just plug & play, less solder work needed, and super easy to install.
Motor & Props
Gemfan D63 3-Blades Props is designed for inverted installation, and it brings pilots a smooth flight! It is more durable and more powerful and offers pilots a high-efficiency flight experience. Equipped with the 1404 4500KV Brushless motor, it brings a stronger power and lower noise, which will give pilots an unprecedented flying experience.
The Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter also comes with “props out” by default. Why do we need “Props out” direction?
Default Betaflight props direction, quadcopter dips, and “washes out” in hard corners. With reversed props or “props out”, no more dipping even in the hardest cornering.
First of all, Many thanks to UAV Tech and Gal Kremer who devoted their time and energies to the testing of Pavo25 Whoop Quadcopter.

KISS FC + BLHeli の組み合わせでビルドする時の特有のちょっとした課題ですが、ESC の各モーターの回転方向の調整には別途、BetaFlight FC が必要になります。KISS ESC ではなく BLHeli なので、KISS GUI からは設定できません。BLHeli Suite で設定するのですが、Fettec G4 は パススルーできませんので、そこで BetaFlight FC が必要になるわけです。今回は手持ちの Mamba を使いました。
横から見た写真。DJI AIR UNIT のアンテナ用の延長ケーブルはかなり長いものを用意しないとアンテナはつけられませんのでご注意を。フレームの仕様としてはアームの中にモーターワイヤーを収納する隙間があるのですが、そこにワイヤーを通すのは断念しました。隙間の物理的スペースがシビアすぎてどうしてもワイヤーが収まらなかったからです。そのためアームの上下にモーターワイヤーがくっついている状態です。某超有名なフリースタイルパイロットがビルドした Kopis X8 を見ましたが、しっかりアームの中にワイヤーが収納されてとてもスッキリしていました。どうやって収納したのかマジで謎です。それくらいアーム内の隙間は狭いのです。収納した場合はアームの根本の先端部からワイヤーが飛び出してくる感じになるのですが、そこから飛び出しているワイヤーを直接 ESC にハンダ付けして、最終的にトッププレート、ボトムプレートにアームを挟み込んで組み立てるのは、相当なビルドテクニックだと思います。。。きっと一度組んだら組み直しできないと思います。。。
Fettec G4 は BEC がついており、16V の電力が共有できますが、特定の条件下だと安定的に電力を共有できない様です。 FC の電力を ESC からのみ電源を取ってる場合でかつ、X8 の場合は 16V の電力共有は安定して行えない挙動となりました。Fettec G4 の BEC から DJI Air Unit の電源を取っていましたが、少し飛ばすと DJI Air Unit の電波が受信できなくなり映像が止まりました。スロットルを入れて軽くスパイクさせるとこの挙動は顕著でした。対策として、LIPO から直接電源をとり、スパイクアブゾーバーをつけてスタンドアロンの BEC を介して DJI Air Unit に電源供給を行いました。
