Easiest drone to fly with camera?

Quick question, I want a drone that will carry a camera and be straight forward to set up and fly.  Can you make a suggestion please? 

Thanks

Perhaps he wants one big enough to ride on?

That would suck!  But good story at the end.

I just bought a tiny Hubsan x4 HD from B&H to see if I would like messing with a drone. Total cost was $120 with extra battery and blades. It would not be good with any wind but after trying it for a while, I will know if it is worth dropping a grand. At least I will get the hang of not smashing into myself (I hope).

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
