Started out on the cheap flybar copters, moving to a MSR 120 fixed, then to a Dromida drone and Syma XC5 which is still awesome for the 35.00 price which I've gotten so high up I can barely see it, and it's super stable compared to many, moved to a p3s, then a p3p, built a f550 which I almost love more than the phantom because you have to fly it but has options similar to the phantoms when engaged by remote, now I'm playing with a 260 FPV racer (it's a whole new level to control!!).
I can say that the basic drones didn't really teach how to fly the phantom because they are so attached to the app and basically fly themselves unless a error occurs, but the basic drones did teach better use of the sticks for taking pictures and video by combing roll,pitch,yaw movements
