Technical Highlights

1080p 60fps Digital HD Video

The P1 Air Unit delivers a 1080p live view at 60 frames per second through the ArtLynk digital video system. Its approximately 60ms glass-to-glass latency supports responsive FPV operation while retaining high-definition image detail.

Over 5km Open-Area Transmission

BETAFPV reports a transmission distance of more than 5km during open-area testing at 200mW. Actual range depends on the receiving device, antennas, firmware, installation, radio interference, terrain, and local output-power restrictions.

Ultralight 6.5g Camera and Air Unit

The air unit and camera weigh approximately 6.5g without the antenna. The air-unit board alone weighs approximately 3.61g, making the system suitable for compact FPV aircraft where installed weight is important.

Canvas Mode OSD and MSP Communication

A standard SH1.0 6-pin flight-controller port provides MSP communication and Canvas Mode OSD support. The system is designed for use with supported Betaflight and BETAFPV flight controllers.

Wide-Angle HD Camera

The supplied camera uses a 1/2.9-inch CMOS image sensor and a 170-degree field of view. Its compact 14 × 14 × 17mm housing is designed for space-limited FPV installations.

FAQ

What video quality does the P1 Air Unit provide?

It provides a 1080p live view at 60fps with a maximum video bitrate of 20Mbps.

What video protocol does this air unit use?

The P1 Air Unit uses the ArtLynk digital video protocol. It requires a compatible ArtLynk receiver or goggles with matching firmware.

What is the transmission latency?

The specified glass-to-glass video latency is approximately 60ms.

Can the P1 Air Unit transmit video over 5km?

BETAFPV reports a range of more than 5km during open-area testing at 200mW. Actual range depends on antennas, receiver hardware, firmware, interference, installation, terrain, and regional power limits.

What is the regional output-power specification?

The rated EIRP is below 200mW for FCC and SRRC configurations and below 25mW for CE configurations.

Does it support Betaflight OSD?

Yes. The P1 Air Unit supports Canvas Mode OSD through MSP communication when connected to a supported Betaflight or BETAFPV flight controller.

How much does the complete video system weigh?

The air unit and camera weigh approximately 6.5g without the antenna. The air-unit board alone weighs approximately 3.61g, and the antenna weighs approximately 0.44g.

What input voltage is required?

The P1 Air Unit requires a regulated 5V power input.

B2B Procurement FAQ
