This kit is a good beginner kit i have personally seen people using this kit for starting the hobby it is a mediator kit you may say as it has 2204 motors but as you know drone racing has achieved a new level so there is nothing such as beginner you can even start with a 4s lipo and a 4s setup.
I have tried and test this kit it is a good kit for money considering the customs and import to India you may go with it 🙂
A video about me building this kit :

So guys as you see you get a compelete package for the drone and you need not invest anything else than a lipo and lipo charger (assuming you have a radio) i feel this is the second best kit which you can buy for the amount of Rs.10000/- .. only issue with this copter is that everythng is pcb based and if you happen to crash roughly which surely you are going to do you gonna need a new one so think wisely and buy a good one .
