Do good things come in small packages? You bet they do, and this micro-drone from EMax is a fantastic product. Thank you Geekbuying.com for sending it in to be reviewed.

Here are the key points:
Pros:
- high integration means tough and reliable
- fantastic flying performance
- super-light (just a third of the 250g threshold)
- comes with batteries and spare props
- safer than traditional miniquads due to the low weight
- cheaper batteries than 5" quads (means more packs to burn!)
- did I mention that this thing is *so much* fun?
Cons:
- the camera isn't the best but is adequate
- it would be nice if it also had an XT30 battery connector
- not recommended for rank beginners
- would like the 200mW VTX option to actually work
- too much fun to fly.. I'll never get any work done!
