Drone Recommendation Please

    Apologies in advance in the wrong place. Admins feels free to move.

    I am looking for a drone recommendation for my 6 year old for Xmas. I know he is young etc. I have tried one of my friend helifar f36 myself and find it hard to control or very sensitive.

    I see some drone come with auto hover and take off etc. I dont want to get anything expensive as I expect him to crash it a lot etc. I have seen some people mention the simano g107 helicopter in places.

    I have looked at the my first drone / helicopter from silverlit and little tykes etc but the review are rubbish.

    He has been on about a drone for months since he met a guy in the local park flying one and we go there every few weeks to watch this guy fly the drone.

    Any help or recommendation would be great. I dont want one with a camera or anything like that.

    Have a look at some of the new hubsan quadcopters fairly easy to handle and not as sentive when learning ,bigger than s micro but smaller than a some DJI offering a lot cheaper too
