I am looking to get a cheap drone (around £50, I am ~14 and that's all I have right now) with a camera that can record and also be viewed live. The range should be 50m or over and I should be able to fly it for ~10 minutes before needing a charge. Is this too much for my budget or am I ok? Also, I found this earlier, would it be a good choice?

 

EDIT: I have an LG G3 (Android 5) if any drones need an app for viewing.

I have a Parrot AR 1.0 I don't want. It works off your smartphone, has a camera that shows up on you phone, and has two batteries with the charger, problem is only one charges.

I would give it to you for free, just have to pay for shipping.  I live in California, United States.

Edit: Works with Android. Used my galaxy s7 on it.

Thanks for the offer, I got a Syma X5HC-1 a couple hours after making the post though
