Default Cheap radios

Does anyone know anything about these cheap 2.4 Ghz radios? If they are any
good at all, $30.00 for a 4 channel TX and RX makes them reasonable for gift
models for my grand nephew and grandson.

People have been having good luck with the Assan stuff in flying models.
Also Corona; some others.
