  • Bought a new drone

    Not sure if anyone on here has a drone but they are pretty amazing technology. I saw the DJI Phantom 3 on sale at Best Buy and finally just bought it.

    It flys really smooth and takes great HD video. Need to get it registered now thanks to the FAA but should be great to make videos at various vacation spots in the future.

    Here's the first video I took yesterday at the house. Flew around the neighborhood some and edited it together.

          Very bad ass. What's the ceiling on it, does it have auto-return, and where does one get said coupon?

          Nice digs too!

                    It looked much higher than 400 feet. Could be an illusion though

                      400ft is high as shit. You can't even see them in the daylight above 100ft.
                      Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

                        I'm sure you are right. I don't have experience with them personally. I was converting the distance into "how many football fields" and to me, it seems the house wouldn't have been that small when he went straight up. I know I'm wrong but that was my thought process anyway

                            I want one. I think it would be cool as shit to check cows with etc.

                              Probably save all sorts of time too.
