Best entry level FPV kit for beginners.
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

Radio is unusable
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

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.

Great RTF kit
Great for outdoors, can maintain good control in 15mph wind or below, good for indoors if the interior is spacious or an experienced pilot. Fast and durable and can withstand crashes. I would say it’s moderately difficult to control with little to no experience because of the high sensitivity of the controls. Drone worked perfectly out of the box
