The Mobula7 can often be had for less than $80 ($74 at time of writing)
The Happymodel Mobula7 was probably my favourite quad of 2018 because it opened up a category that didn't meaningfully exist before - the power whoop... A quad that could be run indoors safely and was still very capable outdoors at a very sharp price point. If you haven't read it yet my original review is here. It has been a hit for newcomers to the hobby which is great too. It is of course not without it's faults like any other quad but it's benefits well and truly outweigh the disadvantages.
Over the time that I have owned this quad I have improved and customised this quad to overcome some of the initial shortcomings and improve on what already makes this great. I have written several articles on this and have summarised these here with links to the full article plus any other improvements I've since made. Practically all of these upgrades are relevant for the Eachine Trashcan as well (which I reviewed here)
Frame Upgrades

$2 e6000 glue
​My biggest disappointment with the very original mobula was the frame which was just not strong enough for 2s crashes especially in the cold weather that this is typically flown. In terms of a quick and easy fix I found that $2 e6000 glue from banggood made for cheap and effective repairs in this article here:

V3 frame (yes it was backward for a reason!)
Next I found that the v3 frame from the Eachine Trashcan which is definitely the strongest option and proved this through a lot of crashes and no damage to the frame. My article including instructions on the change to the V3 frame is here:
​
THE BEST FRAME FOR YOUR MOBULA 7
Since then I have found I prefer the V2 mobula frame which is the same design as the V1 but stronger (although not as strong as the V3). This is because I found it was easier to fit my favourite gemfan props and the overall flight characteristics were better, most notably decreased yaw washout compared to the V3. Note: the mobula7 v1 has been discontinued and all new mobulas ship with the V2.
