Go on newegg.com search for ZMR 250 carbon fiber. It's on sale right now for 28.99. Then go on hobbyKing.com and search for Baby Beasts with 12amp Afros.

Now you have a frame, motors, ESCs..

Go on getfpv.com buy the Acro Naze32 for about 25 bucks

Now you have a frame, motors, ESC, flight controller.

Go on hobbyking.com again, order the MODE 2 turnigy 9x radio. It comes with a receiver.

Now you have a frame, motors, ESCs, flight controller, radio, receiver...almost there!

If you want FPV?

Go on Amazon.com order the Eachine 700tvl camera with video transmitter.

Stay on Amazon.com...order a boscam 32 channel video receiver.

Now you have everything you need except the batteries...

Back to Amazon we go! Order the Floureon 11.1 3s 25C 2200mah batteries. You'll get two for about 30 bucks.

This is fairly cheap and much better than that kit you posted. That kit looks sketchy to me to be honest. If you want to get use to building your own. Just go back to Amazon.com and buy this. You'll still need a radio transmitter and radio receiver as well as the FPV camera, video Tx and Rx but it'll be a start.

I built this one a while back and I was pretty happy with it. My kit came with some LEDs which would have been useful for line-of-sight flying, I didn't mount it because I wanted it for FPV. If you build that be careful, 250 quads are pretty powerful. You will want a bunch of spare props as well.

In addition you'll need a few 3S batteries (1300-1500 mAh), a charger, a radio such as the Turnigy 9X (comes with a receiver). You can get all that for around $100 from hobbyking. Everything else (two-sided tape, zip ties, etc) you can get at a local hardware store, the one thing that you probably want to get online are nylon standoffs for the PDB and the controller (typically stacked on top of each other).
