I came across this Floureon Racer 250 racing quadcopter while I looked for the latest quadcopter news. Although I’m swamped preparing my baggage for a long weekend trip, I didn’t want to miss saying a few words about this cheap racing quadcopter. So far I knew that Floureon manufactures only micro quadcopters, so it was a pleasant surprise to find out about their first racer.
Like many other racing drones, the Floureon Racer 250 is also built around the popular NAZE32 6DOF flight controller.
In front of the quad is a 1000TVL camera, which allows FPV flights through the 600mW transmitter. The included 7″ FPV display can display the real-time video feed. I think it would have been a better option to include FPV goggles.
The manufacturer paired this racing quad with the FlySky FS-i6 transmitter, a nice entry-level RC.
Being powered by a 1500 mAh battery, the advertised flight range of this Floureon Racer 250 quad is about 8-10 minutes. Those who need more fun time can purchase additionally a couple of spare batteries for only $ 15.

I own the Eachine Racer 250 FPV racer, mainly it has the same specs at half price. In my opinion the Floureon Racer 250 is not so cheap
Right now, the Floureon RTF package at GB is about $35 cheaper than the RTF Eachine 250 at BG.
