Favourite Toy Quadcopter?

    I've bought a few quads over the last year

    Cheerson cx10 - nano quadcopter
    FY326 - mini quad
    Eachine H8 mini - micro quad
    Nihui U807 - sporty mini quad
    Mould King super s - in-between a micro and and mini

    the U807 (sporty, good range, good night flyer) and the mould king (cheap, fun, good night flyer due to lights) are my favs overall

    nano quadcopters are sort of pointless I think - too jerky to control such a tiny quad indoors unless you have a big big room for anything more than simple movements.

    Anybody else bought decent toy quads?

    Most available on gearbest or banggood

    The jjrc x1 brushless quad for 120 dollars or so looks pretty cool - very fast and it can easily be upgraded to fpv - might be a future purchase.

    Nihui u807 pretty similar to the dromida vista. Just a good bit cheaper.

    Would it not be easier for you to find that post and link to it here. Considering, you know, you wrote it?

    ...............And it's also easier for me to buy my drones in a bricks and mortar shop. So far I've bought none of mine online.

    I am interested to know what "pilot experiences" are to be had with the
    "Dronesquad Pathfinder" on sale for 30 yoyos, in EuroGiant opposite the Square Tallaght.

    Also, this YouTube channel of Dutch origin is happy hunting ground!
