Many people have that misguided mentality that drones are very expensive. They even end up not bothering to inquire about the prices because they already know they can’t afford. This is not true. Actually, there are three categories of people when it comes to experience with drones. We have the beginners, intermediates, and experts. For the intermediates and experts, they probably know everything about drones. However, for the beginners, you need to take baby steps.

The low-priced drones are not of extremely high quality as compared to the expensive ones. So you have to be careful when operating the drone or it will break. Some weather conditions will also not sustain these types of drones, for instance heavy rainfall.

This kind of quadcopter will capture videos and pictures but don’t expect them to be of high quality. The main reason you are buying a drone this price is to enhance your flying experience so the camera wouldn’t really matter. It can come much later.

Then this EGY X5SW-1 Quadcopter seems like a good fit for you.

Specs:

This is a great drone for beginners, a “toy grade” drone which you can still have a lot of fun with. What more can you ask for a cheap drone.

It is well made, durable and also light. I got it stuck on a branch about 25 feet up the first time when I tried to fly it. Then I threw a broom up at it to knock it down to the pavement and I finally got to fly it around a few days ago at a soccer field because there is plenty of space here.

The quadcopter can fly both indoor and outdoor. It flies around very nicely and responds to the control inputs well. You only have to take care that there is hardly any or no wind because the drone is so light. Sometimes even a breeze can make it difficult to fly in that direction. Also, the LED are nice. On sunny cloudless day I can see the LED lighting, which you need for orientation and to see that they are flashing when the battery gets low. They show up even better on an overcast day and at dusk.

The rechargeable battery takes about 60 minutes to charge with the included USB charger. The transmitter is powered by 4AA batteries. And you can expect an average of 7-minute flight time per charge. We suggest that you get extra batteries, so you can keep flying.

Basic functions like lift, advance and retreat, turn, side fly, fine-tuning, set high, high and low speed switching, 360-degree all-round 3D tumbling are achievable. Besides, this quadcopter also offers many other features:

WIFI FPV system allows real time image transmission with WIFI connection between the quadcopter and your phone.

With 0.3MP camera, it enables to take pictures and record videos.
