Drone opinions

[biker]

Anybody have an opinion on a decent drone? I want one to record video over the vast bush area around my cottage, so a good camera is a must, and would like a decent range and flying time.

Thanks all.

Know anyone in the Air Force? See if they will loan you a Predator for a bit.

I definitely have a couple missions I could use one for.

I've been thinking about a drone as well, I keep looking at some used DJI Mavic.

Yes. That brand keeps popping up the more I read.

Nearly ALL drones are coming out of China these days. DJI makes some of the best out there BUT still from China. EXO makes decent drones and is based in Utah. I have an EXO drone but haven't had much time to fly it - seems good so far! FYI I am a FAA licensed drone pilot.

Dunno 'bout others' opinions, but I take issue with privateer drone / manned or unmanned aircraft operators photographing private real estate (and persons / activities thereon) without express written permission from properties' owners --- serious issue. Manned aircraft have visible tail numbers and can be dealt with in-person--- the others, not so much.

I've wanted a drone to see what cars are sitting in back yards. jim
