Why beginners should buy a cheap drone

When I received the drone, it was well packaged and all the components were there. I read the instructions and went to the backyard. I turned on the drone and the lights flashed as instructed. I turned on the remote and the red light flashed as instructed. Syncing with the drone was easy following the instructions. Pressing the autopilot, the drone climbed a few feet vertically, but the flight was unpredictable. It broke neatly several times until it was properly cut. After fifteen minutes of flight, the controller lost communication (the red indicator was flashing, I still don't know why). The drone continued to fly vertically and moved north. A few minutes later, he disappeared from view and disappeared. I'm hoping to find out why he lost contact so it doesn't happen again. The only reason for the 4 stars is the lack of a warning or caution in the instructions when this happens. I like it so much that I'm buying another one. This time I'm tying a fishing line to the ground for a tethered flight until I master the process!

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Expensive

The controls would not respond and the drone was lost within minutes of first flight
