Bullet point
- An excellent choice for beginners to get advanced. The Cetus X brushless quadcopter prides itself on its lightning-fast speed with quick start thanks to its more powerful propulsion system.
- It can built-in 2.4G ExpressLRS receiver which is the most popular radio link, low latency and far control range. Pilots can not only enjoy the flight indoors but also explore the scenery outdoors. The drone also comes with Frsky receiver protocol version for customers who had LiteRadio 2 SE radio transmitter in Cetus Pro or Cetus RTF Kit.
- Equipped with M04 400mW VTX, C04 FPV camera (based on Caddx Nano Ant Camera or Runcam Nano 4) and 2*BT2.0 450mAh 1S 30C battery for longer radio and video transmission and flight endurance, Cetus X brushless quadcopter allows beginners to achieve more results in FPV flight.
- Flying a drone expertly is the first step to becoming a drone master and the next is to prepare. With the help of the Betaflight configurator, beginners are able to learn the settings of the flight controller, which is an essential way to gain experience with drones.
- Classic white design inherited from Ceto Series and made of PA12 material, Cetus X frame has excellent shock resistance in case of falling and impact. 360° protection of whoop frame ensures safe flights both indoors and outdoors.

Betaflight Flight Controller
The Cetus X brushless quadcopter is built-in F4 1S 12A FC board, which supports ELRS 2.4G or the default Frsky D8 protocol. The ELRS 2.4G version comes with betaflight 4.3.1 FC firmware, so it supports ELRS V2.0. The Frsky version can be switched to Futaba SFHSS protocol via Betaflight configurator. The ESC on the new BB51 hardware-powered board comes with Bluejay 48k ESC firmware, allowing 1103 11000KV motors to give full play to the power efficiency. We upgrade the gyro to BOSH BMI270 for better performance and stability than the new F4 1-2S 12A FC.
| Cetus X (ELRS 2.4G) | Cetus X (Frsky D8) | |
| FC Inside | F4 1S 12A FC SPI ELRS 2.4G | F4 1S 12A FC SPI Frsky |
| Gyroscope | BMI270 | BMI270 |
| FC Firmware | BETAFPVF411SX1280 | BETAFPVF411RX |
| ESC Firmware | C_X_30_48_ for Bluejay BB51 hardware | C_X_30_48_ for Bluejay BB51 hardware |
For the Cetus X ELRS 2.4G version, Betaflight firmware 4.3.0 and later starts to support the BMI270 gyro. For the Frsky D8 version, it is recommended to use the BETAFPVF411RX 4.2.11 firmware and the CLI dump file provided by BETAFPV.
The default flight controller firmware enables bidirectional D-shot and is compatible with Bluejay ESC firmware. If you update firmware 4.3.0 and above for ELRS 2.4G from Betaflight official website, flash the CLI dump file for Cetus X.

- Download Bluejay ESC firmware. Choose C_X_30.HEX.
Note: Only ELRS 2.4G version supports the motor direction set via Betaflight Configurator, and Frsky SPI version does not support it. BLHeli Configurator and Bluejay Configurator are invalid for BB51 ESC (both versions).
Improved video transmission
Cetus X Brushless Quadcopter comes with M04 25-400mW VTX and C04 FPV camera. M04 25-400mW VTX features lightweight and adjustable output power for long-distance flight. Combining this VTX and excellent ExpressLRS 2.4G radio link, pilots can fly the whoop drones longer to explore more possibilities and fun. In addition, C04 FPV camera (based on Caddx Nano Ant Camera/Runcam Nano 4) shows better quality in FPV flight than C02 FPV camera.
Powerful propulsion system
Equipped with 1103 11000KV Brushless Motor and Gemfan 2020 4-Blade Propellers. 1103 motors are designed for 2S quadcopters with incredible power, smooth and quiet operation, and quite lightweight. In addition, Cetus X quadcopter adopts 2020 4-blade propellers, which are quite lightweight and durable, providing pilots with a high-efficiency flight experience.
Primary choice for the next level
Cetus X Brushless Qaducopter Betaflight FC version supports configuration on Betaflight configurator.
