Although a quadcopter can be equipped with a camera, it isn't necessary. However, it may be worth considering if you are looking for aerial photography and first-person views. Although quadcopters can be fragile the propeller is usually the first thing to go. The arms and chassis can also be damaged by collisions. A quadcopter's price can be greatly affected by its camera features. You need to carefully choose the features you require. Camera drones are best if you desire first-person views.
Low-cost quadcopters
The DJI Phantom 4 Professional is a cheaper camera drone. This remote control drone is equipped with an HD camera.
