I have a Mobula7 HD 'Cinewhoop' on order (well my daughter has for my birthday in May). They look to be a hoot

With the cheaper units, you have to look at whether the transmitter is using Bluetooth, which has limited range outdoors, or a 2.4ghz system which has a larger range.
Matek make a 5V buzzer than you can hookup to the FC and set it up in your radio in Betaflight to buzz with activation of one of the switches on your Transmitter.

I brought my drone down in trees/long grass once and had nfi where it was. If it wasn't for the buzzer it'd still be out there...

Costs just over $5, might try and squeeze one in my Mobula7 HD when (or if) it arrives
