Drone for a 6 year old

[GGizmo]

It seems you might have to look into the licensing situation depending on the type and weight of the drone.

It might be an idea to join a model aircraft club. They fly replica planes and helicopters.

6 year old? I'd get him something like this so he can fly it indoors without causing much damage.

Saw these in Lidl last night £39.99. Wouldn't mind one for myself. Time moves on - in my day we made them out of A4 paper and threw them

Why are people talking about flying regulations and licensing for god sake? Its a 6 year old, get him a toy drone from Smyths anywhere from £15-40 there's loads of them.

My sisters 6 year old wants to apply to be the UK Ambassador to Iran. I told her, don't be silly, the UK doesn't even have diplomatic relations with Iran.

I don't think there's anything wrong with mentioning it TBH - the OP may not know anything about the regulations in place, and knowing what is required for anything more than a toy may influence his decision.

Deffo get something classed as a toy. As if it's isn't the OP would be legally responsible and could therefore end up with big fines or even jail. Worth knowing about, right?
