Q500 in 2024 last quarter?

[alkan]

Hi, I bought a q500 for $169 today. It doesn't have a battery. I also bought 2 6000mah batteries for $81, so it cost me $250 in total. Do you think I bought a good drone for $250 in 2024 or is it an outdated old man? Btw, please excuse me as this is my first big bird. (Greetings from Turkey)

The Q500 is a great bird. It is reliable, smooth and quiet. The video range is not long so keep it within visual sight.
Did it come with a CGO3 camera?

I think so with it.

Yes, this is a CGO3. I love my Q500 but imho it is a "vintage" drone. Since 2015 a lot happened in drone technology.

I liked the TFT screen the most. The shots are really good for the price.
