Great little drone
I will start by saying that I bought this to use with a remote I already had (obviously as the listing is for drone only) and FPV goggles I had from another BetaFPV kit. works great with both. the brushless motors are strong and its very responsive, a little bigger then my other drone but this size is perfect still for flying around the house and heavy enough to handle some outdoor flying.It is worth nothing that I ALMOST returned it as I couldn't figure out how to connect it to my controller (Radiomaster Zorro 4 in 1 with a nano ELRS module) the bind button didn't want to put it into bind mode. but I ended up plugging the controller into a PC and running the elrs management tool and setting a binding string, then setting that same string on the drone in Betaflight. Took a long time on youtube to figure it out as I am pretty new to fpv drones and there wasn't a specific video on the topic. when setting the string also make sure you set the drone and radio to the right frequency so that they will bind up. in betaflight its in the same spot as the name and with EdgeTX (the software on my radio and the BetaFlight Pro radio) frequency can be changed on the profile. but once they were set I turned them both on and they connected like they had been doing it for years.If you are REALLY new I suggest a full kit unless you like to tinker with stuff. But I took the leap and I am glad I did.

CRAP
This thing is so INSANELY HARD TO SETUP with the same companies controller it's insanity. I spent hours and if you're on a mac FORGET IT. Forget this thing and the entire BETA FPV brand unless you're buying a kit this utterly SUCKS !

This is a great drone for beginners and fun for veterans of the hobby. It’s very fast for the size and was easy to bind to my remote I already had. I bought a couple different kinds of drones to learn with and this one is by far my favorite.

Unbreakable
The most positive side of this drone that it's unbreakable, it survived numerous hits on a concrete slabs.The only downside is flying time, only 5 min. So I bought 4 more batteries.Btw do not get 550mAh batts, they give you the same flying time as 450mAhAlso I'd recommend to replace video antenna too, you can find videos on youtube how to do that

It's OK. Not great, not terrible...just OK.
Stock, the thing has problems with the VTX overheating (does so very very quickly too). The frame doesn't allow proper airflow to the video transmitter and the stock video antenna is pretty much worthless. You get signal break up at 50' line of sight. The elrs receiver works...but the range is abysmally bad. It uses a single piece of copper wire for the antenna, and it's buried in that awful frame as well. The other problem is how the camera is mounted. It seems like having it be able to tilt is a good idea...until after a couple of flights. In short order the screws that hold the tilt angle loosen up and fall out, so it flops around (which is critically awful in flight). I ended up tranferring all the components to a new 2" frame and it's tolerable now, but even then it's under ppwered and flies like a pig (the new frame is actually lighter than stock). I also replaced the VTX antenna which improv3d it's video range considerably.While the internal components are adequate, the frame is an oven which will cook the parts to death. I do not recommend.

It's fun to fly, but the camera gets hot and the video signal gets lost in mid-flight
I really like flying this drone, but after 4 battery packs the camera gets hot and stops sending the video feed to the goggles which can be really exciting in the middle of a flight! In my opinion, the video feed has a lot of glitches so you really have to pay attention to where you are in your flight, I just fly around on my 1 acre lot and I am getting used to where all of the trees are!! It is a lot of fun, I am new to drones so this is a good starter drone for flying FPV!!

5 stars for the Cetus X, BetaFPV & BetaFPV Support!!
I am new to the FPV hobby and I am so happy I've joined at a time when companies like BetaFPV are around with products that enable quick and immediate fun flying with a path to learning Acro! I just love the CETUS X. What a powerful, easy to fly, quality drone. ELRS is the future. Thank you to BetaFPV for an easy on ramp to the best hobby ever! What I love even more is that BetaFPV Support was right by my side when I had challenges with getting my radio and the Cetus X to talk to each other! Not only that, when I had issues with the VTX, they sent me a new one. I've read elsewhere that they leave you hanging when/if you have issues with their products. Not my experience at all. If you're looking for an easy entry into the hobby, on quality products with the right support to get and keep you flying, look no further!! Thank you BetaFPV!
