Such wow –
Nice start
I love this thing! I have been interested in FPV drones for a while now but just don’t have the best living situation to try learning to fly something like a 5″. This thing though? Very doable.The drone itself is pretty neat. It seems custom designed to get people into the hobby. I have spent a lot of hours in sims so I knew how to fly, but really had no idea how the drone would react to me in physical reality, so first flight started on the hover mode. Going into sport mode just requires you to now think about throttle, and then going into manual mode opens it up all the way. All of these modes toggle via a switch on the controller, with an opposite switch controlling PIDs via slow, mid, fast presets. The presets seem to mostly affect rotational speed of the craft in 3d space. I don’t notice a huge difference in the actual throttle, but maybe some. The tune makes switching between the modes seem pretty natural and can remind me of like a takeoff procedure. Hover off the ground, sport into position, and then acro your heart out kind of feels like takeoff, pulling up gear, closing flaps, etc vs different modes you have to learn. Sport mode’s pretty fun, too and doesn’t feel too much like wearing training wheels or anything.One thing to note is that if you have dreams of plugging this thing into a computer and flashing stuff on it, they will remain just that, as it’s not supported in Beta/Emuflight.My one real complaint about the drone is that there is no turtle mode and the drone likes being upside down on the ground as much as peanut butter toast does. There’s a switch on the remote that would be perfect for flipping the drone back over but it’s used to make the VTX switch to a different channel, which I have yet to have occasion to need to do. Been upside down a lot though.The frame is pretty sturdy but BetaFPV is currently not selling replacement frames. You could easily put this drone’s internals into another frame, but it’s something to be aware of.The goggles were the biggest surprise. I really like them. I expected them to be kind of horrible but they’re comfy, compact, clear, and easy to use. It’s pretty light on features but bottom line is you can flip it on, press a button, and put it on your face and fly, and it works just as easily with other drones. I like the internal battery.For the price, I can’t complain about the controller at all and if you consider the cost of the drone and goggles, it’s almost like you get it for free. It works fine and is easy to use, but operationally it is a little bit clunky. It’s easy to use with sims. I would say plan on keeping this as a backup or something to lend a buddy who doesn’t have their own kit.All in all, wow though. As an ensemble package, I could not be more pleased with my purchase. It’s exactly what I expected in terms of difficulty level, but about 200% as much fun. Get more batteries.

Nice little drone!
Pro’s: Easy to fly and great quality for the price point. It is pretty tough for its size witch makes it perfect for learning FPV (Trust me you will crash and/or hit something).Con’s Very light. If your dog farts it will move. witch means it’s not great in ANY wind. Not great outside. It’s very small so if you like to fly “line of sight” rather than FPV you need to be close.Over all a fun little drone. the range is good for its size and responds well with the included radio. It is also compatible with simulators using the included USB cord. The goggles are super easy use and uncomplicated witch is good for people new to FPV. they are not adjustable for vision (I don’t think any are at this price) but will fit over most glasses. I would/have thrown this name out to people that want to start in the hobby or as a gift for older children and teens.

Real Review
Iâve recently became a FPV enthusiast, the freedom and adrenaline, not much like it. To achieve that many brands out there ask you to put down a fortune, specially in this hobby genre. If you arenât sure these reviews are real stop, this one is, and this drone is one of the best ones you can get. Iâve not experienced it all but this little thing packs a punch! Obviously youâre paying for what you get the video quality is analogue: a surprisingly clear one at that. What you donât realize youâre paying for though is an indestructible flying tank! As a newbie Iâve crashed this thing into the dirt, into the concrete, and it still works! Rest assured your money is going in the right place. One last thing, unfortunately a negative, the battery is notoriously short. Itâs fun, itâs exciting, but it only lasts 5 minutes. Be sure you have one charging while flying.

Over priced trash.
Thing came out of the box unresponsive to the commands from the controller. For the 4 seconds of flight time it got before it decided to do whatever it wanted without me inputting what it was doing. i had never been more angry in my life over a purchase. Returning it asap. I could place a rock and this thing together and the rock would respond better.

Super Stable – Features I’ve not seen in something at this price point and size
UPDATE: Bought 3 more including one Cetus Pro with brushless motors. Teaching the neighborhood kids STEM. Really surprising for the price and size. It has an optical flow camera and a laser range finder which gives it a really stable hover. It is fun to fly. Great for a beginner. Once you get used to it, you can bump up the performance via switches. Surprisingly, I don’t know how I’m able to see the image in the goggles with my extremely poor eyesight. On the downside, it is a little twitchy and seems to have a mind of its own sometimes. It kind of adds to the experience. Next time, will try to shut off some of the automation. Also, would be nice if the camera angle could be changed, and the video is marginal. Can’t complain about the price and overall performance, though.

Nice materials, not so great video.
I would say this is ok. It does fly for about the time stared, but it is really hard to get a clean video signal so you have to fly through interference.The quality and materials are good, case is nice and controller feels good, really just the video quality is my only issue.If you are new to drones and FPV, could be good for you, but I don’t see it as a racer with the poor video signal.

Ich habe mich dazu entschieden einen 3-Zoll Toothpick zu bauen:Folgende Komponenten habe ich dafür gewählt:Frame: North FrameMotoren: BETAFPV 1204 5000KV Brushless MotorenProps: BETAFPV HQ 3030 3-Blade Propeller & BETAFPV 16pcs HQ 3020 2-Blade PropellerFC: BETAFPV Toothpick F4 20A AIOKamera: BETAFPV EOSV2 Micro FPV Camera 1200TVLVTX: Eachine Nano mit UXII Antenneund Frsky XM+Das ganze habe ich dann noch mit ein paar Druckteilen komplettiertAufbau:1,5mm Schafft und 2 Schrauben. Gehen gut drauf und auch wieder ab – Die Schrauben werden übrigens mitgeliefert.Leistung:Wie mit den BetaFPV 1204 Mopeds gehen die Dinger echt ab. Für Geschwindigkeit würde ich eher für die 2-Blade empfehlen. Für Freestyle sind die 3-Blade besser, da nach meinem Empfinden etwas smoother fliegen. AuÃderdem beanspruchen die 2-Blades den Lipo schon ernorm – bei Vollgas gehen meine 450mAh 4s Tattus ziemlich in die Knie

The initial excitement of receiving this FPV Drone was lost due to the inability to use the goggles with glasses, rendering the purchase useless..That was an expensive mistake.

Estas hélices me salieron un poco caras al comprarlas por aquà y después me han dado un rendimiento un poco decepcionante. Sobre todo, son muy ruidosas comparadas con el resto de hélices que he probado en mi dron. No las recomiendo.
