If it's an electric one (rechargeable batteries give you about 20 mins
flying time) he's after, try Ebay. I bought a couple of there a couple
of years back, lot of Chinese suppliers on there, but a good few British
ones too.

He might want to get a cheap one to see how he gets on with it, because
they're a complete bitch to fly, (spares are quite cheap with the
electric ones too, he'll probably want at least a couple of sets of
spare rotor-blades) could barely get mine off the ground, got so
frustrated with them I ended up selling them again.
