The Beetle resembles the insect of the same name and it is a small mechanical-like device that can fly to reach areas Link could not reach himself. Players equip the Beetle to the B-button and release it with the A-button, thus taking control of the item with Wii Motion Plus as it flies through the air, given a third-person perspective from behind the Beetle as it flies. The Beetle has a limited distance it can fly before it shuts off and has to be re-equipped and re-launched, and must also be re-equipped when it hits a wall or other obstacles. Link can also call back the Beetle at any time during its flight.

Early on in [[Lanayru Desert]], one of the [[Ancient Robot]]s calls Link's Beetle an older model of Lanayru fabrication and upgrades it for Link. This upgrade allows Link's Beetle to pick up items and drop them to solve puzzles.

===Upgrades===
The Beetle can be [[Skyward Sword Upgrades|upgraded]] to the [[Hook Beetle]], [[Quick Beetle]], and [[Tough Beetle]]. The Hook Beetle can pick up items like Jars or Bomb Flowers and drop them with A-button. The [[Quick Beetle]] can speed up with A-button, but cannot do so while carrying an item. The [[Tough Beetle]] is the same as the Quick Beetle, but can now fly longer and is orange-colored.
