Whether you are a seasoned racer or a cinematic freestyle pilot, the Modelhive Ratel 2 Micro Camera is engineered to elevate your entire flight experience. As the highly anticipated successor to the original Ratel, this camera packs cutting-edge imaging technology into an incredibly lightweight and durable chassis.
Unmatched Clarity in Any Light
Say goodbye to blown-out skies and pitch-black shadows. The heart of the Ratel 2 is its massive 1/1.8" Starlight sensor. Combined with Super WDR processing, this camera actively balances extreme lighting conditions in real-time. The result is a smooth, high-contrast image that lets you navigate through dark forests, bright open fields, and dimly lit evening skies with absolute confidence.
Built for the Demands of FPV
FPV flying is tough on gear, but the Ratel 2 is tougher. Weighing only 5.9 grams, it won't weigh down your drone or negatively affect its handling. Furthermore, the camera is protected by a rugged magnesium-aluminum alloy casing that acts as a protective shell against the inevitable crashes that come with pushing your limits.
Total Control & Customization
The Ratel 2 is designed with the pilot in mind. With support for both 160° and 165° fields of view, you can switch between a wide, immersive cinematic perspective and a precise, distortion-free racing view. The included standalone OSD (On-Screen Display) menu board allows you to fine-tune camera settings—such as exposure, white balance, and contrast—directly from your transmitter, ensuring your view is always perfectly calibrated to your environment.
