      I know what you mean, I done the same but I found that the small cheep ones do not stabilize very well, if at all, so you spend most of your time, and efforts, walking to it, picking it up and launching it again, over and over.
      Others may think differently, but you might consider upgrading up a bit to one that has stabilized flight and a camera, real time display would be better.
      There are decent ones with a camera that records then you download from the drone it's self, for around $150. Take that $30 and put it your bank and check the net. Also consider spare parts that come with it, getting parts and service and flying time.

Real, and man made UFO's, are travelling over our heads in the hundreds everyday, in plain sight too. The only reason you don't see them is because of speed. They travel too fast for our human eye to follow.
