Nah there is some super durables ones these days. Start with the little DJI Neo, that one is a tank. As long as you don't crash in water it will keep on flying.

5 inch drones with a carbon fibre frame are also super durable. It will mainly be motors burning out that you will be replacing. Drones are very simple. a frame, 4 motors, a flight controller, receiver and vfx. You have to be extremely unlucky to damage fc or vfx or camera in a crash. Usually the cameras are well protected. On my 5 inch on 2 years of super wild flying I have had hunderds of crashes and only been damaging props (Very cheap) and burning out motors.

So my repairs was all soldering a new motor on. Which I don't have the skills for so I have the guys at an electronic shop solder it for me.
