BETAFPV ELRS V3 Cetus X FPV Kit with Betaflight FC LiteRadio 3 Transmitter C04 Cam VR03 Goggles with DVR Recording Function, Supported 2S Power Advanced RTF Kit for FPV Beginners to Fly Faster Further

I am very satisfied with the customer service that BetaFPV provided through Amazon. I received one unit that had a camera issue, and after contacting BetaFPV support, they responded immediately. They stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process, offered a solution, and I currently have no issues with the drone. This is my first analog drone, but I am not new to FPV flying. Unlike some of the reviews I have seen here, there are people who seem to think this is a stabilized drone for complete beginners. If that is their impression, I believe they have not taken the time to read the product details or do proper research about this drone. While this drone is often recommended for people getting started in FPV because of its durability and affordable price, my suggestion is to spend some time in a simulator first. The controller included with this kit uses ELRS and is compatible with flight simulators, so you can connect it to your computer and start practicing before flying for real. The goggles do their job well. I would have liked a little more range, but I really cannot complain. The flight experience has been excellent, the drone responds perfectly, and I could not be happier with both BetaFPV’s customer service and this drone. I want to make one thing clear: if you are new to FPV and looking for a way to get started, this is one of the best packages available. Use the controller that comes with the kit, spend some time flying in a simulator, and when you feel comfortable and ready, start flying FPV. This drone will not disappoint you. In my case, I already had experience with flight simulators and digital FPV systems. I have not had any crashes or accidents with this drone so far, but it feels very durable and capable of handling the inevitable bumps that come with learning. It even has enough power for some light freestyle flying. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enter the FPV hobby.

Do not buy this drone. The controller started to drift/Gimbal failure in under 2 weeks making the drone impossible to fly. Also the battery connector on the drone sucks and it cracked exposing the bare wire. Next the battery charger glitches and freaks out if you leave the battery’s plugged in with no power (USB bank auto shutdown when battery’s are full) also the VTX antenna is completely garbage stock and immediately needs to be replaced if you want to go farther then like 100 meters. Overall a completely waste of money. And not a beginner kit because you essentially need to replace everything in order to get it to work properly.

Good kit overall, only issue so far is that the battery charger gets really warm when charging. I have built a charging setup with a fan pointing at the charger. There should really be a heat sink on the inside of it, but there isn't. Other than that it does well. Flies well once I got used to it, and everything seems to connect well. I got the upgrade batteries (550 mAh) which are nice. Definitely a good starter pack, and since the transmitter uses ELRS, you can upgrade to many other drones and use the same transmitter and goggles.

To preface this, prior to owning this drone the ONLY experience flying I had was with a DJI drone that basically flew itself. I honestly didn't realize how difficult flying a drone actually is. I'll leave advice based on my experience at the end. This is by far the best kit to get you up in the sky ASAP. If you aren't sure you'll like this hobby and don't wanna invest too much in something you aren't sure you'll stick with, this is what you're looking for. Build quality is good, and the flight time it gives you is about 8-10 minutes with the lipos provided in the kit. It's also quite durable as I attempted to fly it several times before trying a simulator and crashed every time. That leads me into my advice. If you own a PC, Mac, or steam deck - PLEASE fly in a simulator first. Give it at least 5-10 hours before using the drone. Yes, you can probably get off the ground with angle mode, but that's not why you bought this drone. You bought this because you saw people doing sick tricks and flying fast. This drone will do that. I tried several sims, however I highly suggest using "Liftoff". You can download this drone on steam workshop and it flies very similar to real life. You can use the provided radio(controller) to fly in game and it's so worth it as well as being fun! I also suggest buying another set of props(it comes with an extra set, but when you use this drone as a lawn mower it breaks them down quickly). You can also get 550mAh lipos from betafpv that work perfectly with the cetus x and it'll give it another minute or 2 of flight time, as well as a whoopstor 3 to charge 6 batteries at the same time. All of these can be found on amazon, minus the drone sim. I'd also like to add that I had a minor issue with a component, and betafpv went above and beyond, so I'd say their customer service is quite good. They replied quickly, addressed my question and immediately provided a solution. 10/10

If you want to learn FPV, buy this drone. I bought this drone about 2 months ago as a complete newbie. I can now confidently fly on Air/Acro mode, shoot gaps, and do stunts. This drone has taken a BEATING. I’ve hit my house, trees, light poles, concrete, the occasional small child (kidding), and myself (wish I was kidding). Despite how hard I’ve crashed this thing, it flips back over and gets right into the air every time. It has scratches, gouges, and a nice coat of green grass to prove it. The VR03 goggles are great. Throw a 32gb memory card (can’t go higher than 64) and you can record your flights. Some people use this headset with other drones. The drone itself doesn’t have the best range, but it’s enough to learn on. More than about 150 feet and you’re gonna get bad static. Poor penetration too, don’t fly behind buildings. This is the perfect entry level drone. It takes a beating, has 3 fly modes from beginner to experienced, and the controller feels great. Buy yourself a few more sets of batteries because you’re going to want to get more flight time.

The Cetus X is a great beginner drone like everyone says. But its for casual use. I constantly found myself running the Drone chip temp. High. Ended up buying a pack of 550 Lipo batteries to pick up an extra min of flight. But found myself Running the 550s out of power by the 4 min mark. Also bought Liftoff: Micro from Steam to learn to fly before I flew the real thing. The game does have the Cetus X in the prebuilds. Flies close to the real thing so it was easy to Move from Level mode to Acro mode by the end of 3 days. Now the bad part. The controller. In the Image I posted you can see one of the gimbal connecters was basically not plugged in. I mainly used the controller for Liftoff and had little real drone time with it. From what I found the Red Wire was hardly connected into the Goop of White clay or putty that is covering the end cap. The connecting job is pretty crappy so expect the controller to give out soon. As you will see others say also. They do have repair parts and other controllers on their site. But do take this into consideration before buying. The controller quality is lacking. All in all a great drone and bundle just wish they would give better quality assurance to their accessories.

I just picked this up at the beginning of June and barely 2 weeks later the radio control isn't working properly. After looking up the issue it seems that these radios (lite radio 3) have a common problem with the gimbals failing. As for mine it started having issues with the throttle control and has this "jitter issue" and wants to speed up even if if you're not touching the gimbals. If i wasn't inside it would've flown away. The drone itself is very fun but these radios aren't very good so be prepared to spend more money on just replacing the radio. I wouldn't bother with this kit after learning it's common issues

The quad flys well and is very light weight/compact. It’s a good concept but I feel the dual 1s batteries with 2 plugs was the downfall to this quad. Package arrived with one battery already puffed so I only had one set of batteries to fly on. I could get ~2 min of flight time before it would give met the sub7v land now alarm. I felt like this drone didn’t give me the satisfaction of flight so I returned it to buy a 2s quad that can support a single 750mah battery. Buying the BetaFpv Pavo Femto. Hopefully this other quad from them doesn’t let me down as well.

Por supuesto NO LO RECOMIENDO

Muy divertido , muy difícil volarlo
