OK, found my own answers...The original Parrot Drone, $145 at Bed Bath Beyond does have two cameras. It doesn't have the 'Absolute Control' feature thats designed for noobs. The Parrot Drone 2.0,

That term "Absolute Control" has to be taken with a huge grain (spoon) of salt.
It does take some time to learn to fly a quad.
The Parrot Drone sounds like the best thing since sliced bread but it has sever shortcomings. The range of control is very limited. And using an IPhone to guide and operate a RC type vehicle is a huge trade-off from an actual RC radio.
For way less than a hundred dollars, you can get a small quad, with camera and controller and charger that will actually give you a lot of enjoyment and can easily be learned to operate.
And, spare parts are available.
8 years of experience here, many with many more years will back me up.
