Drone/Quadcopter Recommendations

[ColchesterFC]

I'm off skiing later in the year and want to get a quadcopter with camera to take some aerial shots around the chalet. I won't be taking it out on the slopes with me and I'm not bothered about stunts or tricks.

Don't want to spend a massive amount, up to around £200 ideally but would go a bit higher for the right one. Most important things for me are a decent amount of flying time, ability to buy spare batteries, the auto return to take off location function if possible and a decent camera that will do video and stills. Also don't want to have to control it from a phone or tablet.

Anyone got any experience or knowledge in this area?

EDIT - have also seen some advertised as max altitude of 150m above sea level which is obviously no good up in the French Alps.

To be honest I don't think you will get much for £200. My mate has just brought a Phantom 4. It's over a grand but wow it's a piece of kit.

I'm not wanting or expecting professional quality video or photos in my price range but just something that is fairly easy to fly and is able to take decent enough photos while flying.

I'd advise popping into the Anglia Model Centre in Gorleston...
