Meteor65 Pro spare parts

BetaFPV · specs for the Meteor65 Pro (2022) · checked

BetaFPV's Meteor65 Pro is a 65 mm 1S whoop on BT2.0 packs, and its frame, motors and board are standard parts. Two things catch people out: it ships with 35 mm props rather than the usual 31 mm, and 450 mAh packs don't fit. Here is what ships on it and what we stock that fits.

Batches change. Check the parts on your own quad before ordering, especially motor shafts and the battery plug.

Frame and canopy

Stock: Meteor65 Pro ducted frame with a clip-on canopy.

Frames crack at the motor mounts after hard hits. Swap the frame and keep the electronics.

Motors

Stock: Four 0802SE 19500KV motors with 1.0 mm shafts.

Replace with 0802 motors with 1.0 mm shafts and similar KV. If you change KV, change all four so the quad flies evenly.

Props

Stock: 35 mm 3-blade Gemfan props with 1.0 mm holes.

Gemfan 35 mm tri-blades are the stock prop. HQ 35 mm props are slightly larger and don't fit this frame. 31 mm props with 1.0 mm holes fit too, with a little less grip.

Batteries

Stock: 1S 300 mAh BT2.0 packs.

Stick to 300 mAh class BT2.0 packs. BetaFPV says 450 mAh packs don't fit the Meteor65 Pro, so skip those even though the plug matches.

Flight controller

Stock: F4 1S 5A AIO with an ELRS receiver on board and BT2.0 lead.

A dead board usually means a burnt ESC after a stalled motor. The same F4 1S 5A board with serial ELRS is a straight swap; bind it to your radio again after fitting.

Parallel charging

Stock: BT2.0 packs, one at a time on the stock charger.

Parallel leads charge several BT2.0 packs together on one charger port. Match voltages before you connect them.

Charging and storage

Stock: Whoop packs are 1S LiPo: 4.2 V full, about 3.8 V for storage.

Charge where you can see it, never overnight, and park packs at storage voltage if you won't fly for a few days. Indian summers are hard on LiPos, so keep them out of cars and sunlit windows.

Questions

Which battery fits the Meteor65 Pro?

1S BT2.0 packs around 300 mAh. BetaFPV says 450 mAh packs don't fit this frame, even though the plug matches.

What motors does the Meteor65 Pro use?

BetaFPV 0802SE 19500KV motors with 1.0 mm shafts. Any 0802 with a 1.0 mm shaft fits the mounts and the stock props.

It ships with Gemfan 35 mm 3-blade props with a 1.0 mm hole. The frame also takes 31 mm props. HQ 35 mm props are slightly too big for it.
