If you are just starting out with racing drones then you don’t want to start with expensive drones. As a beginner, you will crash so you don’t want to smash up a drone worth $1,000 or more.
These racing drone specials are great for beginners as they are affordable but still have FPV (first person view). FPV is how you immerse yourself in your racing drone so you feel like you’re sitting in the cockpit as you hurtle around your drone track. Just like racing your very own Star Wars pod racer!
