You get a lot for $80
This kit has everything you need to get started in FPV. You get the quadcopter, 2 batteries, transmitter, monitor, holder for the monitor and an extra set of props.This kits isn't perfect but for $80, you get a lot and my ratings keep in mind the low $80 price tag. I've been flying FPV for several years so I am qualified to rate this kit. For a beginner who doesn't want to spend a lot of money before deciding if you like FPV, this is a great deal and I would definitely recommend this kit.You get everything you need to get started. If you end up liking FPV, you will want something better but no one wants to spend hundreds of dollars without knowing if they will stick with it. So again, the $80 price tag meets a need. The quadcopter isn't the most stable out there but for the price, it's hard to complain. The sticks on the transmitter are a little stiff, which makes precise control difficult but it is definitely flyable. The throttle stick springs back to center, which I don't like but it doesn't keep you from having fun. The little included monitor is fabulous for it's size and I will keep that as a demo tool for when others want to see what FPV flying looks like. The monitor alone is worth $50. It has good battery life and includes all the bands and channels used for FPV, including Race Band!I flew this little guy around the house and it is definitely fun. The video feed was beautiful! I was on the 1st floor in the kitchen and flew it up the stairs and into the bedrooms on the 2nd floor and the video signal stayed solid. I had a few crashes until I got used to the transmitter and the drone suffered no damage. I found that the antenna on the drone acts as a lever and will twist the camera upward with even a light tap against something so I found it best to swivel the antenna horizontal to mitigate this. It did not impact the video signal. The transmitter has 3 rate settings. The highest setting is very touchy even for me. This is partially because the sticks are so small. I found myself using the middle rate setting. There are a couple of things missing from the kit. You need to supply two AA batteries. That's no big deal. You also need to supply a USB-A to micro USB cable and power cube for charging the monitor. I think the cable at least should have been included, especially since everything has gone to USB-C. A lot of people may not have a micro USB cable hanging around.In summary, this kit is fantastic for the price. The components are not the highest quality (other than the monitor, which is very nice) but they are better than I expected for $80. I plan to use this kit to teach my two grandsons to fly FPV. Even if the drone breaks, I'll hang onto the monitor as a useful tool for demoing FPV and also locating lost drones.

Don’t expect too much.
Pretty neat little drone but I’m not sure it’s really worth the price. Battery life is not very long. And it wanders around so it’s hard to keep it up in the air for very long. But I guess it’s not a bad starter drone for a kid.

It's cheap quality
The camera is not even colored and not clear to see anything

Fun indoor mini-drone
This thing is tiny! As such it's very light. Problem with that is that the slightest of breezes takes it away. That said, for indoor fun, this one is great for what it does. You get about 3 minutes per battery, of which they give you two. The video is not the best, but this is not professional high end drone, and doesn't purport to be. It is remarkedly stable and easy to fly. Apparently it has an internal gyro that keeps it that stable. It's just pure fun to try and navigate from room to room without hitting a wall or something it shouldn't! Again however, it's so small and light that even if it did hit the China closet, nothing would happen. For the low price they want for this neat little toy, it's a bargain. I would recommend this one, five stars!

Paying mostly for the FPV screen and camera; this is fun when it works
This micro FPV drone is an interesting package. You get mostly everything you need to get setup. What you are missing is x2 AA batteries for the remote, and a micro-USB A cable to charge the FPV screen. The drone itself is very tiny and should only be flown in doors. It is not powerful enough to fly with stability outside, especially if there is any amount of wind. This whole kit is made of cheap plastics, which in this case is good in the event you crash, it shouldn't damage anything really, unless you bump into something that falls over. Setting everything up is very simple and straightforward. I do have issues with my screen though. When I power it on, it will shut off immediately most times after I release the power button. So, I have to repeatedly press the power button until the screen stays on which is VERY annoying. The included instructions make sense and are easy to understand. The controls work as described which isn't always the case for cheap toy drones like these. Flying around the house, the video feed was a bit glitchy when going behind walls and into the hallway, but I was easily able to fly it from 15 to 20 feet away using the FPV camera and video monitor. This does have the ability to hover in place, but it will drift around, it will not stay in one spot like the more expensive $200+ drones. The battery life is about 15 minutes of fun and luckily you get 2 batteries! The batteries do charge up quickly, just know you will need your own power brick for the battery charger. For $100, you are paying about $30 for the drone, and $70 for the FPV screen and camera setup. I don't know if this is a good value, maybe at $80 I could recommend this kit because of the inconsistency with the quality control issues. If I didn't have issues with the screen powering on, I would probably give this 4 stars.

Value for money
Good value for the money but doesn't have the kick to it.
