Best Quad under $75

Hey guys, new to forum and quads. I recently got a Syma X5HW-i and was happy with it till i found the Visuo XS809HW. I now have both but have a dilemma. One want to keep one and the Syma is definitely funner to fly (faster, agile, etc) but has a crap FPV 0.2MP camera. So i got the Visuo which has a slightly better camera FPV 2.0MP and looks cooler, plus it folds but is like flying a rock through the sky.

So after looking more there are tons and tons of quads under $75ish that have a decent camera for the price. I am wondering if anyone has any first hand experience in helping me pick another model that is both fun to fly and fast but also has a decent 2.0MP FPV camera

Thanks!

I agree that you should consider the Hubsan H122D X4 STORM. I'd link you to my videos but there are better ones on YouTube including this

It seems like a good budget set up to get some into flying quickly. I would keep it for myself, but I already have 3 quads with a 4th being built soon. I am intrigued by the design mainly. Looks like it has all components lying flat along the baseplate to allow the battery to fit in the frame; rather than on top, or on bottom.
 
Thanks for the replies guys n girls. You guys are the only people to reply and in 1 day, no one else even looked at same post on other boards. Guess I found out why forum board to join. I'll look into those husban's.

I just flew both the syma x5hw and the VISUO back to back and was going to end up keeping visuo due to better cam and possibility of upgrades and mods. I just hate how "bulky" it feels flying it compared to the Syma. Its like driving a sports car then jumping in a minivan. If those husbans look good I'll return both and get that if you guys say it's got why I'm looking for. As for that diy racer, I built my own 3d printer so I know I can build it, just don't have the time or energy to do so lol
 
Hey devils27, another option is buy an upgrade camera for the X5C.

Syma 5MP + your X5C quad fits your budget.

Thanks![/QUOTE]
