Description

Overview

BETAFPV P1 Air Unit HD VTX is an HD VTX (FPV digital video transmitter) in the ArtLynk protocol ecosystem. It provides a 1080p@60fps live view with approximately 60ms latency and a video transmission range of over 5km, paired with a 1/2.9” CMOS camera featuring a wide 170 field of view.

Key Features

• ArtLynk protocol for low-latency, long-range HD FPV video transmission.
• Live view quality: 1080p@60fps; video transmission latency: approx. 60ms.
• Video transmission range: >5km (range varies by environment and interference).
• VTX frequency: 5.1-5.9 GHz; max EIRP: <200mW (FCC/SRRC), <25mW (CE); 10MHz bandwidth; 3 channels; single antenna.
• Camera: 1/2.9” CMOS sensor, 170 FOV, Canvas mode OSD, max video transmission bitrate 20Mbps.
• Ports/connectors: SH 1.0 6-pin (FC) and SH 1.0 4-pin (USB); labeled Bind Button, USB Port, Camera Port, LED, Antenna Port, FC Port.
• Artosyn Inside & KAP Supported (Artosyn AR803X chipset noted within the ArtLynk ecosystem).
• Standby Mode adjusts power based on the distance between the goggles and the drone to help keep the live view connected.

Firmware Compatibility Notes

1. For compatibility with third-party ArtLynk protocol equipment (example: HGLRC Draco), update BETAFPV devices to firmware version V2.0.5 or later.
2. The air unit is updated via the ground station. Ensure the ground station and air unit are on the same firmware version before updating. Firmware V2.0.5 is not compatible with V1 versions (V1.0.36 / V1.0.44).

Ground Station	Air Unit	Actions Required
V1	V1	Update both to V2
V1	V2	Update ground station to V2
V2	V1	Downgrade ground station to V1, then update both to V2
V2	V2	Ready to use

Details

Get an HD digital FPV live view up to 1080p at 60fps with low-latency performance for a responsive flight feel.

Clear port labeling makes wiring straightforward, with dedicated connections for camera, flight controller, USB, and antenna.

Compact 3030mm mounting and a 14mm-wide camera fit common FPV frames while keeping the overall stack low-profile.

Keeping weight low helps preserve flight time and handling, especially on smaller builds.

Designed for common FPV firmware workflows, with a 6-pin serial connection for clean integration on supported flight controllers.

Built for the ArtLynk ecosystem to deliver stable HD video links across compatible FPV gear.

Use the pinout to connect power, UART control, and USB for setup and firmware updates.
