People who know drones, is this a good one?

It is obo so obviously it could be had cheaper than asking. I am wanting one but this looks to be a custom built one, not sure the value

If, *IF*, the seller is including the craft, the camera, the TX, RX, VTX, it is a very good deal! Almost to good to be true. What is the controller? This is a small light weight, high speed *racing* drone NOT for a novice. The fact that the seller says that this craft would support the weight of a GoPro camera is highly suspect! I would be very leery.

Looks tight but will it blend?

expect disappointing flight time, unforgiving control, breakage and constant, potentially expensive maintenance.

That's a Walkera Runner 250. Helipal sells them for $325 ready to fly with the Devolution transmitter. So yeah, that Craigslist find is a bad deal.

Is it a decent model? I have a couple Walkera helis. They aren't bad. Damn shame they stopped making them and switched exclusively to drones. But Mr. Dangler said, this quad is not for beginners. These are for racing and they're quite fast. If you have no RC experience, I'd look at something like the Quanum Nova instead.

I have no interest in racing, I figured he was just trying to hype it up by saying it is a racing drone
