Lol I have Multistar baby beasts on a racing tri that I've gone inverted with (and crashed multiple times mind you XP) so for their price they are actually pretty nice little motors.

Lmao, inverted a big deal for you?

Thanks! This is like six or seven months of minimal practice, and I think I just killed my Naze yesterday

This is the third Naze I've killed. I think that's the issue, otherwise I murdered 2 ESCs and severely wounded the other 2.

Yeah I've killed quite a couple ECSs doing my first wiring harness for my mini quad, never seen that much electrical smoke before or since.

Never killed an ESC. Although, some of the surface mounted caps are floating around in the heatsrhink on one of them

I'd highly recommend avoiding it seeing as it usually results in a small fire and a plume of smoke.

They're mini quads. They're racers and they're built to haul ass. The first one uses rs2205 motors which are really good, the standard. The only issue I have with both of them is the carbon is probably not of the best quality and might break really easily.

That first one looks good, but get a better video antenna. I don't like how there are only 2 bolts on each arm, but it's probably fine. 

I have found out that the frame used on that p200 drone is a EMAX Nighthawk X5 which is a 60$ frame so I would imagine its a pretty good frame with nice carbon.

Eh, emax has only just now begun to shed their reputation for making cheap crap to something of a higher pedigree. The rs2205 is about all they got that I know is good. I don't really want to trust their frames, I'd recommend a shen drones or mqc.

I wasn't really saying the frame would be the best, but I imagine it would be real carbon for that price.

Maybe, it's worth a shot.
