Top 10 Best Budget Quadcopters & Drones for Filming.
While big names like DJI command prices in the thousand range, drone enthusiasts with a more modest budget don’t need to break the bank if they want to test the waters. After all, there are quadcopters available in the market with more pocket friendly price tags. While it’s true that they don’t have all the snazzy features of their much more expensive counterparts, they do fulfill the most basic need of drone lovers: getting a machine in the air with the intent to film some scenes.
That said, here’s a look at some of the best budget quadcopters within the $100 to $200 range:[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”black” align=”align_center” style=”” border_width=”” el_width=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row animation=””][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space height=”120px”][vc_single_image image=”12010″ border_color=”grey” img_link_large=”” img_link_target=”_blank” img_size=”400×300″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Foxnovo Hubsan X4 H107C
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Equipped with a 6-axis flight control system that also comes with an adjustable gyro sensitivity, the X4 H107C from Hubsan flies at a stable pace. A 2.4GHz radio remote controller is used to operate the device. In addition, the remote controller has an LCD screen where the operating status is displayed, as well as the capability to carry out various flight actions.Material-wise, the H107C is lightweight, but durable. Still photo lovers might not take to the device as much as it’s only capable of capturing video – done through a micro SDHC card.
Another thing that may deter users from this drone is its flight time: it can only manage about seven minutes. Plus, that doesn’t factor in the amount of time needed to get the machine ready to go and all the bumps and bruises it may sustain along the way. Then again, when you want a starter drone that wouldn’t make your wallet cry, the Hubsan X4 H107C is a decent choice.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”” width=”1/1″]

Night flyers will enjoy the new Syma as it is equipped with LED lights. Although some might not quite enjoy the limited flight time of about 10 to 12 minutes, the Syma X8C is sufficient enough to gather video and fly in day or night situations.
