I have a Parrot Mambo FPV drone and have been having issues with the camera module. I have been advised by Parrot support that the behaviour demonstrated is a known issue with later versions of Android, however the drone (and associated app) are no longer supported. It was only a budget drone but after investing in a number of accessories I'm loathe sending it to landfill... I'd rather find an old phone to breathe a bit of life into it!

As such, I have the following requirements:

-Phone or tablet (I do not need GSM)
-As cheap as chips - This will only be used for this one Android app
-Android version 4.4 - 6
-Screen size 4.5 - 6"

I'd purchase new or used in good condition. With some model numbers I might stand a better chance of finding something. I'd hate to admit how long I've been searching for already... Thank you!

Agree, best looking in Members market.

From previous phones i've had you could look at older options such as HTC One X, M8, Oneplus3.

Done - Thank you.

After a bit of searching I've found a new Alcatel 4 Pixi on auction for £15 delivered. I know this is really low-end however anything I should know given the basic requirements? Sounds perfect on the face of it.
