(NGC) - Anyone know anything about this drone?

Looks like a nice starter package for little money. Too good to be true?

I have one, paid $99.  It's OK. I don't use it much.. after calibration it still want to wander backwards so I have to keep directing it forward slightly, not easy to hover in one spot. Being that small it can be affected by very little wind. I think it's a pretty good entry level drone for someone to learn how to fly. The camera not too great . If You control it with an iPhone or android you can record to phone but if you put a mini sd  card on board the capacity for recording expands and then I use the controller that it came with. To be true, I kind of lost interest in it.. if you want to inspect your roof or something it's adequate.

Supposed to be the same (rebranded) as the Eachine E58 that is priced at $51.00 on Amazon.

I have no idea how well it works but will in short order the Eachine E58 arrives via Prime.

Edit.

After a couple searches and reviews and $3 more I got the VISUO XS809S. It has a longer flight time comes with an extra battery is a bit bigger and said to be slightly more stable.

What really amazing/scary is the amount of technology you get for around $50.
