Drone | Buying Advice

What's a good budget drone for shooting video of landscapes? Not interested in 4k, HD will do.

Fanks, bye.

Saw a lot of positive talk about the Dji Mini 1 that's on sale in argos atm.


Been tempted to buy one for ages to help with some work stuff but the area I'd be using it has fairly shite data and reception so I'm not sure what would happen if it lost the connection.

Thanks, just had a look at some footage and for £260 that looks right up my alley.

I had hoped people would insist on calling them quad-copters or some other thing and go all correcty on people using drone. Maybe the hobby UAV appeal is too broad/casual to attract any sort of terminology pedantry?

It only matters if you're trying to take it on a flight in your hand luggage.

Actually once I get one I might declare "UAV online" every time I launch.
