    • PERFECT first FPV Drone
Review Image by Joshua Burgman
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. ... show more

    • Hard pass.
Flew fine for 6 flights then went haywire mid flight. Piss poor support. Simulator won’t even open. There is a long way though download the sim. But it won’t install. I hope I got a lemon and not a legit product. We can just call it sub satisfied. What I did notice the first couple flights before it took a total sheet the goggles last a couple hundred feet max. The motors might be able to be repurposed for something but that seems like that’s about it. Battery life claims 5 min or so. Low battery message comes on as soon as everything is powered on. Everything about this was a turd out of the box. I think I got all the warranty return trash. ... show more

    • Perfect beginning FPV drone.
Review Image by Daniel
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. ... show more

    • Incredible Beginner-Friendly FPV Drone with Great Performance
To start I really like this drone. It’s analog so the footage isn’t the best and the camera is highly sensitive so the camera has needed up broken several times. Luckily Amazon support is very good, unfortunately BetaFPV’s isn’t. As a beginner in the FPV drone world, the BetaFPV Cetus X has been a fantastic choice for getting into the hobby. The drone is well-designed, lightweight, and comes with everything you need to get started right out of the box, including the goggles and controller. Pros: • Stable flight: For a beginner drone, the Cetus X offers great stability in the air. It has a smooth, responsive control system that makes it easy to fly, even in light winds. I was impressed by how steady it remained when flying in more open areas. • User-friendly: The drone’s setup is simple, and the controller feels comfortable in hand. It took only a couple of hours to get the hang of it. The included goggles provide a solid FPV experience, which made the learning curve less intimidating. • Versatile: The Cetus X offers three different flight modes, which is perfect for gradually increasing your skill level. It has a great mix of beginner-friendly features and advanced options that you can explore as you progress. • Durability: The build quality feels solid, and I’ve had no issues with parts breaking or malfunctioning, even after a few crashes (which, let’s face it, happens when learning!). Cons: • Limited battery life: The battery life isn’t the longest, with about 8-10 minutes of flight time per charge. While it’s acceptable for short practice sessions, I find myself having to swap batteries frequently for longer flights. • Not great for high winds: While it’s stable in light winds, the drone does struggle a bit in stronger gusts. It’s definitely better suited for calm weather or indoor flights. • No 4K camera: While the camera does a decent job, it’s not the highest quality. If you’re looking for 4K or ultra-high-definition footage, this might not be the right choice, but for a beginner, it’s more than adequate. ... show more

    • DO NOT BUY-needs to be removed off Amazon totally.
DO NOT BUY THIS Had it for two weeks. Flew fine. Landed hard one time in the grass. No damage was caused but then it would not take off or fly would just flip over every single time. Even replaced all props made sure they were going the right direction checked everything in betaflight. It was fine. Never flew again. Would just hop off the ground and spin and shut off. I checked all the motors cleaned them checked all connectors everything seemed fine. I STRONGLY advise against buying this. It should be removed off Amazon. There is no support for it. It’s been discontinued by betaflight as well. ... show more

    • All you need to get started!
For the price this kit ROCKS. 4 batteries, tools, extra props, charging cable, A VOLTAGE CHECKING CHARGER, drone, remote, and headset. Seriously AWESOME For the price. Drone is rock solid. I'm a 31 year old mechanic and can follow instructions, this drone works right out of the box as long as you follow instructions to a T. The remote works on my simulators which is sweet as well. Have only flown inside due to weather but this is a next level experience. Kinda overpowered for indoors but I'm starting to think the "X" mean cross between indoor and outdoor. UPDATE 1/1/24: Finally felt confident enough to connect my drone to betaflight and noticed that the drone has betaflight 4.4 already installed and the rc has elrs 3.0 already installed. Awesome product and clearly they learned from previous QC issues and started testing the drones before shipment. Also MAKE SURE TO FULLY SEAT YOUR PROPS ON YOUR DRONE. mine weren't fully seated and one prop popped off in my house luckily. Good thing it came with 4 more! ... show more

    • Everything but the Controller is great

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. ... show more

    • I like this drone.
Flys good and a lot of fun. Under 250 grams, so no requirement to register with FAA. Though a little fragile. I fly it in a large field with grass to land on and have not damaged it yet. It gets grass stains very easy, so kill the motors just before landing. I did put a longer antennas on it and run it at 400mw. It covers a foot ball field easy. I would say not for a new inexperience person who is buying his first FPV drone, if so then I would recommend spending some time on a simulator before flying. ... show more
