Syma X5C Explorers
Best toy drone with a camera
Editors’ Rating : 8.8 –
Design : 9 – Battery : 8 – Features : 9 – Ease of use : 9 –
One of the least expensive toy drones with a 720p camera, and although it feels pretty cheap and the camera is basically toy-quality, it flies surprisingly well and can take quite a lot of crashing. Great for learning and practice, too.
