X160 is the micro racer for FPV hobbyist. It is a high-integrated product with highly flexible control.
Equipped with motor 1104-4000KV, propeller 3x2 as well as the popular BLheli 10A esc (Oneshot support).
Flight range of remote control more than 1000 meters.
To gain the quality and real-time shoot for FPV, X160 also combines 5.8G 32CH 200mW transmitter(the
switch can shift between 20mW and 200mW) with 1/3''CMOS lens, which supports 127 or wider 160°
shootings and every moment brings you the exciting FPV experience.
This latest V3 with OSD for the video, the real-time status will be returned back to the display. Flight control
SP F3 flash with CleanFlight, just connect the battery, receiver and set the remote control to use.
