Yah lots to keep track of here's a Google sheet I have with all the things I use with round about prices https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...8U9Y8ZVmp9Sg939uw9dv129v6eQ/edit?usp=drivesdk
Not sure how many of the links still work but should still be useful for plugging in prices and seeing the full scope of parts. You can definitely find cheaper everything on the list but those are close to components I actually use and think are pretty good, but not completely breaking the bank.
Also I don't see anything glaring as an issue in the list so far.
Fold up one might be a mavic mini from dji, they make quality stuff from what I gather but generally pretty expensive... Any of the more expensive stuff like DJI products or FPV goggles best to search around for second hand and get a deal than buy new (so long as you have return option or way to get money back if second hand item is not as advertised). I have a ancient crappy box goggle (bad receiver in it and was cheap to start) I would send for shipping cost but you are better off shopping around still
Goggles are the only thing I left out of my sheet, I should maybe add a line for it to be filled in but it really varies a ton, can get a little handheld display or box goggles for under $100 but generally not great receiver or antenna coming with those or like the fat shark recon are nice box goggles but $200, then anything like the Fat shark HDO or Aomway commander or Skyzone or DJI HD digital fpv, price starts getting in the few hundred to thousand range for just the goggles. So yah probably buy used or look at it as long term investment after you have things assembled and flying line of sight without too many incidents
