Outdated Product
Affordable recreational quadcopter with durable plastic body, long-range remote control and extended autonomous flight capability. It does not have a built-in camera, but it comes with a gimbal for GoPro and Xiaomi XiaoYi cameras (the distance from the mounted gimbal to the ground is 80 mm). It is positioned as a 2017 mid-range product aimed at users who need a drone with a range of up to 350-400m. A key feature of this model was the use of powerful and durable MT1806 1800KV brushless electric motors, which provide excellent dynamics and an impressive rate of climb. An interesting feature of the MJX Bugs 3 quadcopter was the presence of motor speed controllers (ESC) with automatic jamming protection. Such protection reliably prevents the "burnout" of the motors, which can occur after an ac...cidental fall of the drone and blocking of any of the propellers. The MJX Bugs 3 quadcopter is controlled only from the supplied remote control and supports a special acrobatic mode. The maximum range of a stable connection with the remote control can be up to 500 m (in the absence of interference). The high-capacity two-cell (2S) lithium-polymer battery provides up to 19 minutes of autonomous flight.

Please note: It doesn't have the word "Mini" in its name, and stores are already offering a different model.
Powerful and flies for a long time if you go without the camera and prop guards. Brushless motors and an ESC with burn-out protection when the props get jammed (during crashes). You can swap the 2S battery for a 3S.
Of course, you can install a camera and FPV, but it’s better to do so on a quadcopter in the next price category.

A racing copter for a reasonable price.
30 June 2019 
For about €187 and change, in my opinion it’s one of the best copters. But as a toy. Even though there’s a gimbal mount for a camera, it’s not made for smooth video, and even stab won’t save it bc the copter is basically a racing one. It picks up speed and altitude very fast (in the second mode). Flips are cool, but the main plus is agility and speed.

At first I grabbed it purely as a toy—friends recommended it so I wouldn’t spend too much. Then I bought a GoPro, used, but whatever. It’s fun and interesting, but not quite it. You can’t tilt the camera. Stabilization is basically nonexistent. So, get this copter as a racing one, for tricks. It’s quiet, zippy, nimble, fast. The body is easy to take apart. I crashed once, it survived, but the top cover popped off. The motors are brushless, which means they’ll last a long time.

One thing to note: the battery connects through an adapter. And this adapter is very basic. You can accidentally short the battery and the copter if you attach it the wrong way. So be very careful when connecting—check where the red wire is. There are speed controllers in the arms, one for each motor. There’s FPV, so you can see where you’re flying. In windy weather it’s not very stable—be careful. The props are large, soft, and won’t break from a single touch. I tossed the guards right away. I’m happy with the purchase; the copter is definitely worth the money! I recommend getting the red one—it’s easier to see.
Speed. Agility. How fast it gains altitude. Quiet in operation. Bright LED (visible from far away). Keeps a stable signal. Easy to take apart. ESCs are separate from the board.
Batt lasts about 9 minutes. Not suitable for shooting videos — it’s just not its thing. In windy weather, it struggles to hold position. Not the smoothest motion.
