Thank you for your help.

Dont waste your time and effort with cheap beginenrs instruments of almostany sort - :-(
buy a decent quality instrument, or drum set from the start, they prove themselves in being easier to play
( and learn on ) and most importantly assist in holding your interest while deveolping your skills and experience.
A cheap instrument of dubious quality will not do that for you.
If it takes a little longer to save for it, or if you can pay it off, you will thank yourself in the long run.
The Yamaha DT EXpress 3 series is a good example, provides lots of sounds, but will while it can take a while to learn to proramme the module, it
will give you much enjoyment, and hold its value if you wish to move on to a higher end kit after gaining experience at some point in the future.
Cheap instruments are just that - cheap, and dont retain, or offer any value to anyone who may wish to purchase fom you down the track
A good quality instrument, or drum set , when you come to upgrade, offers you a much broader potential market
to sell to.
When I decided to learn to play bass years ago I bought a bass that was , I thought, way too expensive at the time for me, but guess what - I still have it, and
I have had far more than my money's worth out of it ...and its probably worth today , what I paid for it !

Cheers
