Flywoo HDZero Whoop Lite w/ Runcam Nano V3 Cam MIPI 40mm

The HDZero Whoop Lite Bundle with RunCam Nano V3 is an ultra-lightweight, high-definition digital FPV transmission system explicitly engineered to bring crisp digital telemetry to 1S, 2S, and 3S micro whoops, indoor racers, and toothpick platforms. Combining the high-performance RunCam Nano V3 HDZero camera module (weighing just 2.2 grams) with the ultra-miniaturized Whoop Lite video transmitter (VTX) mainboard (weighing 4.5 grams), this integrated setup delivers fixed-rate, low-latency 720p digital video processing at 60fps. Outfitted with variable output power up to 200mW, SmartAudio configuration parameters, and a massive 1/2-inch starlight-level sensor, the bundle provides an immediate digital upgrade path that eliminates the static lines and screen tearing of analog systems while maintaining agile power-to-weight flight dynamics.

Features

High-Definition Fluid 60fps Pipeline: Transmits a continuous 720p digital transmission stream, providing crystal-clear visual telemetry without the frame ghosting or signal static common to analog equipment.

Massive 1/2-Inch High-Sensitivity Sensor: Outfitted with an oversized 1/2-inch CMOS core boasting an impressive 10650 mV/Lux-sec sensitivity threshold to maintain sharp visual positioning under dark, unpredictable low-light conditions.

Ultra-Lightweight Nano Profile: Shaves critical bulk down to a 14mm × 16mm × 14mm camera footprint weighing an astonishing 2.2 grams, allowing high-definition digital systems to be deployed on micro whoop builds without destroying power-to-weight ratios.

Wide-Angle Optical Field of View: Delivers an expansive 155-degree diagonal field of view, providing exceptional peripheral awareness for aggressive proximity maneuvers.

Adjustable Power and SmartAudio Support: Features a variable output transmitter supporting a close-range 25mW racing profile up to 200mW for structural obstacle penetration, adjustable directly via your radio transmitter sticks.

Standardized Board Mounting Pattern: Designed with an industry-standard 25.5mm × 25.2mm layout, providing native drop-in stack alignment on top of standard micro AIO flight controllers.

Resilient Low-Voltage Input Rail: Built with an onboard regulation rail that safely handles direct power inputs from 1S to 3S flight battery configurations, preventing video blackouts during high-throttle voltage sags.

Operational Instructions

Mechanical Stack Integration: Insert the included rubber shock-absorbing dampers into the 25.5mm mounting holes of the Whoop Lite VTX board. Position the transmitter on top of your flight controller's electronic stack layout, ensuring components do not pinch surface-mount parts.

Mechanical Camera Mounting: Secure the 14mm nano camera housing between the structural side plates of your drone frame canopy using standard hardware screws, adjusting the vertical tilt angle to match your forward flight velocity before final torque application.

Digital MIPI Ribbon Interlocking: Locate the included 40mm 20-pin MIPI ribbon cable. Carefully guide one end into the camera's rear MIPI socket and lower the locking bar. Route the opposite end of the ribbon cable into the VTX board's MIPI socket interface until it securely seats.

Power Wire Mapping Schema: Plug the included connection harness into the VTX power port. Solder the opposite bare wire leads to your Flight Controller (FC) pads: Red wire to a positive power pad (ensuring it matches your 1S-3S power distribution layout), Black wire to a Ground (GND) pad, and the remaining SmartAudio line to a free flight controller TX pad.

Telemetry and Video Calibration: Click the provided 5.8G linear dipole antenna onto the VTX board's U.FL terminal socket. Connect a flight battery and power up your HDZero FPV Goggles. Enter the Betaflight Configurator Peripheral tab, configure the chosen UART port to "Peripheral: MSP", and activate the HDZero VTX table to enable remote SmartAudio channel and power tuning via your radio transmitter sticks.

Notes

Critical Operational Warnings

RF Transmission Safety Policy: Never connect a flight battery to the Whoop Lite VTX module without a 5.8G antenna clicked tightly onto the U.FL connector socket. Operating the VTX without an antenna prevents the transmitter from dissipating its RF energy, causing rapid heat buildup and permanent destruction of the primary amplification circuits.

Strict MIPI Interface Ribbon Safety: The ultra-fine 40mm 20-pin digital ribbon cable transmits high-frequency processing streams. Do not crease, make sharp 90-degree folds, or twist the ribbon line during canopy mounting, as microscopic trace fracturing will cause immediate digital video blackouts, severe data freezing, or permanent connection failure.

Strict 3.3V Camera Power Input Limit: The RunCam Nano V3 HDZero camera module is strictly engineered to draw its power from the regulated 3.3V DC power rail provided through the MIPI socket of the Whoop Lite VTX. Never connect the camera power lines directly to standard 5V pads, 9V pads, or external raw battery rails, as bypassing the input limits will cause immediate, unrecoverable sensor component burnout.

VTX Thermal Heat Management Policy: High-definition digital video transmitters generate rapid localized heat build-up while sitting idle on the bench without cross-flow ventilation. Avoid leaving the battery connected on the ground for extended setup periods; calibrate settings quickly or utilize a portable field fan to prevent automated thermal shutdown or component degradation.
