Hello All,

 

So I've recently discovered the arts of Aerial Photograpy and Remote Controlled quadcopters and would like to give it a shot. I'm seeing that some of the best drones out there are like the DJI Phantom 3 and the Parrot Bebop but I currently don't have that much money to drop on one of those, and what good does it do if I crash it into a wall on the first day I've had it? So, for those of you who share the same interest as me, and have more experience in the field of multirotors and aerial photography, could you give me some advice on quadcopters and suggest one that has a good camera for aerial photography and is more budget? And by budget, I mean somewhere within the realm of $50-100 USD($61.35-122.70 Canadian). Also, I'd like it to be beginner friendly, because the only multirotor I've flown was a small Traxxas QR-1 and I broke it within a couple of hours.

Syma X5c is often reccomended. 

 

Hubsan FPV x4

 

And Walkera Y100

 

Those are all entry-level reccomended type stuff. 

 

 

These all have cheap cameras, and most will not really be able to hold even a gopro. But, you shouldn't be flying with $$$ of camera gear until you can fly one of these well, and then buy a better multirotor (or build your own)

Aw.

I would get one but they're ($30?) and I have, well, nothing :P haha

I'm thinking about ordering one from the UK hehe. Does anyone know if they're available in stores in the UK?

Save up for it! They look amazingly funny and great for annoying girlfriends.

Since you are talking here about quadcopters, does anyone know any cheap (decent) quadcopter with a camera (min. 720p/30fps), so that I can shot some videos while in the sky?
