PAYG from Tesco is good value, and the customer service is better than you'd expect.
My Australian BiL has one for his annual trips, it keeps live during months of disuse, and when he lost his phone, the desk in the supermarket arranged a new SIM with the same phone no. as he was able to pass their security checks.
When somebody recently died who had a mobile Tesco phone, I kept paying it for a couple of months so I could answer and inform any callers or texts. When I notified Tesco they stopped billing, ran the service up to the end of the month, and wrote off the outstanding balance on the phone.

Is it just data you need or 3/4G?

I keep an old phone permanently strapped into the drone controller cradle as it's a bit fiddly connecting and disconnecting my main phone!
I have found that in order to fly sometimes an update is required, so having that extra sim is worth £2.50 a month imo.
Never really seen a drone up close myself until we went to our friends place in Sardinia. His place is totally secluded and up on the hills outside a village called Modolo. Anyway, one night one of the blokes from the village brought a drone up and flew it from his villa to the village and back (that you can just about see the village in the picture) which was about a mile or more away. It was bloody fast plus it had a camera on it too and the clarity was amazing! I was surprised that the controls worked at that distance too. Of course, I immediately decided I wanted one but by the time I got home I had calmed down a bit and realised I wouldn’t have nowhere to fly it. Oh well, the idea was good while it lasted.
