I had high hopes for this, as the last FuriBee quad I flew, the DarkMax was fantastic.  Needed little bits sorting here and there, but was a great out of the box experience.

But the Nebula... as pretty as it is, was not.  I don't know what happened, how could it have been made by the same guys.  We had non-Dhost compatible ESCs, a CMOS camera with a 2.8mm lens (although it felt more narrow than that).  Despite being a BNF quad, Betaflight wasn't setup at all, and the quad was completely miswired giving a constant OSD voltage reading of 12v

! No longer available

So yeah, then the XM failsafed multiple times inside 100m, and then I managed to break it.  Although, for once, it wasn't me being clumsy - everything checked out and it still failed.

Verdict: Avoid this, and loko at the BFight 210 or Darkmax if you are looking for a cheap BNF machine.
