    In my local area, we were able to get a mile or so with line of sight. And the price (less than 50 for 2) without soldering is a pretty good deal for a beginner. It also comes with a case.

    You can also get the https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CTXL61LY?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details or add in a battery later on. Its meant to be a beginners kit because you an check to see if it works easily and its upgrade-able in almost all parts. We have close to 20 members in our local group (its a whole lot of fun) and almost everyone starts with one of these.

    What do you recommend for beginners?

        Its more for testing it out to make sure it works. But yeah I have an outdoor one and an indoor one. So I can message and receive pretty easy plus help the local network.
