This is a question False Economies

Sometimes the cheapest option isn't the right one. I fondly remember my neighbours going to a well-known catalogue-based store and buying the cheapest lawnmower they stocked. How we laughed as they realised it had non-rotating wheels and died when presented with grass. Tell us about times you or others have been let down by being a cheapskate.

I keep buying inferior drones
The first has radio communication issues and plummets out of the sky unexpectedly. The second has one slow propeller, so it skitters sideways and frightens the pigeons. I'm thinking about scavenging both and creating a high tech marvel that bobs and dodges, evading both discovery and control.
