Morning all.
I need to buy a copter with camera for my nephew for Xmas.
A budget of £60 so nothing too fancy.He's only 12 years old so i can see it getting broken quite quickly. 😆
What do you recon gang.
Cheers....

I want one of those really big ones with a proper DSLR attached; the sort they use to shoot nature documentaries and stuff.

Stangely, Santa doesn't seem to have received my email...

The cameras on those cheap ones are shit. Even the £250 [url= http://ardrone2.parrot.com/ ]Parrot AR Drone[/url] that I had for a while was way too laggy to actually be flown using the camera as FPV.

Just get a Hubsan X4 and a spares kit (you will break it!). They're good fun, amazingly resilient and the fact it doesn't have a camera is no big deal at all, just means you learn how to actually fly the thing without staring at a fuzzy 0.4Mp image on a tiny 2" screen.

There's a decent choice on banggood.com. Just make sure it's in stock when buying or they can take ages to deliver. Not had personal experience, but both of these look good VFM.

The Tarantula is probably too large to fly in the house, limiting the amount of use it may get. Buy a few spare batteries.
