1. Ultimate ExpressLRS Performance for Pinpoint Control
Experience the gold standard in radio link technology built right in. The integrated SPI ExpressLRS 2.4GHz receiver offers ultra-low latency and rock-solid, long-range connectivity. With selectable packet rates up to 500Hz, it delivers the instantaneous, failsafe response demanded by racers and freestyle pilots, giving you absolute confidence for every dive, gap, and trick.

2. Powerful 1S Punch-Out in a 40g Featherweight Frame
Don't let the size fool you. The ultralight 40g "toothpick" design, powered by the all-new EX1202.5 11500KV motors and Gemfan 75mm props, generates surprising thrust and agility. This unique combination provides the exhilarating "punch" and recovery of heavier drones while maximizing efficiency for extended, dynamic flight sessions on a single 1S battery.

3. Unbeatable Flight Time: Up to 4.5 Minutes of Action
Maximize your airtime. Optimized for efficiency, the Crux3 ELRS delivers exceptional flight durations of up to 4.5 minutes with a standard 1S 650mAh battery when carrying a lightweight HD camera like the Caddx Peanut. This means more practice, more filming, and more fun per charge compared to typical high-performance micro drones.

4. Ready for HD: Seamless Upgrade to Caddx Peanut or Insta360 GO2
This is your perfect HD cinewhoop platform. We include a dedicated 3D-printed canopy, allowing you to easily mount popular sub-20g HD cameras like the Caddx FPv Peanut or Insta360 GO2. Instantly transform your setup from lightweight analog FPV to a stunning HD recording rig without any DIY hassle or added weight penalties.

5. Complete, No-Solder AIO Package - Fly Straight Out of the Box
Get airborne in minutes, not hours. Every critical component is pre-integrated into a robust All-In-One (AIO) board: a 5A 4-in-1 ESC, F4 flight controller, 5.8G 200mW VTX, and the ExpressLRS receiver. It comes fully assembled with the Caddx Ant camera installed, includes all tools, and is tuned and ready to bind and fly. Perfect for both beginners and experts.
