Anyone get a cheap drone from kmart ?
I bought one (2 years ago ?) , a tiny thing approx 5x5 cm.
It didn't last long - approx dozen flying hours indoors, the (brushed) motors gave out - but a lot of fun for $20. A lithium poly cell with a few hundred mA capacity, it would lift a 5 cent piece maximum freight ! They use geared props now, don't know how long they last.
