5- Syma X11C

5th best drone for kids on our list is Syma X11C. You have probably heard of Syma before, we mention it a lot here at DronesGlobe, recent example is our list of Top drones for beginners. They have released great commercial hits such as the Syma X5 series and most recently the X8 series. But that is not all what Syma has to give, they have also come up with great micro sized quadcopters such as Syma X12 and Syma X11. Here we are discussing Syma X11C (X11 version with a built-in camera, the C stands for Camera). X11C is a great quadcopter especially for younger enthusiasts due to the following factors:
- Protective Ring Case. An ABS plastic case sorrowing frame and motors will ensure the drone does not break or snap easily when hitting or crashing.
- Built-in Camera. It’s better for the camera to be protected inside the drone, it won’t break as easily, once again, great when it comes to kids handling drones.
Now that we have seen how durable X11C is, let us discuss its features. First of all, the camera is surprisingly good quality, 2M HD (do not expect actual High Definition video, but still it is very decent). You can record video and take photos from buttons in your controller. All the files are saved into a 4GB Micro-SD card (including in the package). It has 6 Axis Stabilization System for smooth flight (stable and wind resistant). Control distance around 80 to 100 meters! Yes you read it well, X11C range is that good! Flight time of 5 to 7 minutes (depending on camera usage). And of course the 360º air stunt with just the push of a button.

Another company you may have already heard about, Cheerson the manufactures of the top seller Cheerson CX-20. They have also succeeded with a more affordable release, a mini quadcopter named Cheerson CX-10, which is placed on our list of quadcopters for kids. Following its success Cheerson decided to produce a camera version of the CX-10. The Cheerson CX-10C (once again the C stands for camera), is a great little quadcopter, at an amazingly cheap price. When it was first released Cheerson CX-10C was the smallest commercially available drone with a camera. Camera is 0.3MP, but don’t be alarmed, you will be surprised with the quality of this camera. It is better than most 50$ quadcopters. Camera performs better indoor but you can also get some very nice footage in the outdoors with it. CX-10C is very stable, great for both indoor and outdoor flight. Control distance is only 20 meters, but considering it’s a very affordable quadcopter with a good 0.3MP built-in camera and smooth flight. It is well worth it! Videos and photos are saved into a Micro-SD card placed on the rear of the quadcopter. The package does not include its own Micro-SD, you have to provide your own. Overall, Cheerson CX-10C might just be the best bang for your buck, for less than 28$ you get a great stable drone with a good camera.
- One of the cheapest camera drones in the market.
- Surprisingly good quality built-in camera.

After the great success of the Hubsan X4 H107 series, Hubsan has released an upgraded version of X4 H107 camera model (the H107C). I present you the Hubsan X4 H107C+, a drone with an astonishing design resembling a futuristic spacecraft (in white and blue or black and orange). H107C+ is super stable and easy to manoeuvre. Camera is 2MP with 720p resolution, good quality, won’t disappoint. Between 50 to 150 meters range (10 drones with longest range) depending on flight conditions. Battery can be charged through USB directly to your computer, it only takes around 40 minutes to charge and powers up to 7 minutes flight. Besides all this improvements from the former version, an Altitude Holder feature was also added to H107C. Set the drone to steadily hover in the same place in air. Allowing you to focus on the video.
- Very good quality built-in camera.
- One of the best looking micro drones.
- Battery charges quickly.

2- Lian Sheng 115
==> See customer reviews on Amazon <==
You have probably never heard of Lian Sheng, but they had a couple of successful drones released in the market. Other releases were not so successful, having stability problems. Worry not! Lian Sheng 115 is a great little quadcopter, and the cheapest on this list. Like the previously mentioned drones, LS 115 also comes with a built-in camera, 1MP quality. It is not the best low budget camera out there in the market, but it also isn’t the worst. Expect decent image quality. Flight time around 7 minutes. Control distance of 50 meters. With Cheerson CX-10C being released in the market, LS 115 might lose a bit on the price~quality. None the less a great quadcopter. Overall a great affordable product, ready to fly out of the box! Potentially, this is the best drone for kids.

1- HT F803C

For a period of time, HT F803C was the number one low budget micro quadcopter with a camera. It flies great, very stable, and perfect for beginners and kids. Very affordable and with great features such as the 1MP camera (better than the one on Lian Sheng 115 but worse than the Cheerson CX10-C); the Headless Mode (yes it actually comes with headless mode for easier orientation); automatic reverse (flies backwards). It has amazing specifications such as 8 minutes of flight time (battery can be charged in just 30 minutes) and 100 meters of control distance! How great is that? Definitely a great little quadcopter at a cheap price.
