Anyone on here own a drone? Been looking at a couple and would like some real feedback from someone that has one.

Looking at a quadcopter that a camera can be attached to. There are just so many models that I'm confused. The one I'm looking at can fly for about 17 minutes before the battery gives way. I'm suspicious of the range of these from the controller. That's where I need someone that really has some experience. Anyhow Keith, in the dead of winter we could fly your woods and do a head count of deer and turkeys. As you can tell, I'm starting to "lose it".

Wow! It must be a robust little drone to collide with a goose, and it hardly reacted. I hope for a full review after you get it and test it. Good luck!

LOL. Gotta figure out a way for the machine to fight back though.

Almost unbelievable. Certainly had me shaking my head. I'll call you Yaz if I get the courage to do one like that.

thats impressive. These things are the future whether the American public likes it or not. Industrial uses, ag uses, utility uses and on and on. Heck, it would be easy to look at open lands for management purposes. What I've not found yet is a a good night vision camera for one. I"m sure it's there somewhere though.

I "want" to be old school Keith, but I always like in the mirror and remind myself that I'm old, you aren't yet, and its time for me to yield to the younger generation and its technology.
