    I am looking for a drone with camera must have return to base function. Would like something that can go about one mile approx and I have a budget of €200.
    Any ideas ? Would buy second hand if available too.
    Thanks

    It may be a little over budget but the Hubsan h501s advanced fits that description exactly.
    Gps return to home, 1080p camera and some YouTube vids show it going over 2km with full control.
    I've seen it for €199 on Gearbest during flash sales so keep an eye.

    Ok I am ready to buy now could you recommend the best place to buy one ? There is something about grey ones not being usable in Ireland due to gps sofware. Does that sound right ?
    Thanks

    Please dont do this. Fly under the hobiest rules issued by the IAA (300m from pilot)
