    School me on drones

    I know nothing about them except I want one lol. Looking to buy a drone with a built in camera with live feed I can watch through a smart phone/tablet. Not looking to break the bank this will be my first one and I'll probably end up tearing it up anyways.

    DJI Phantom is kinda the standard. Lots of choices though. I haven't looked lately but the Lilly drone looked pretty cool.

        People are dumping used Phantoms on the market lately, for the Phantom 4. You can find some great deals on 1-3 on Craigslist. Though there is some problems with 'flyaways' etc with them, it's a great learning drone without breaking too much bank.

          Right now the best bang for your buck is a DJI Phantom 3 standard. Priced vary but most are around the $450-$500.00 mark. These were around $1100.00 before the Phantom 4 came out. I had a DJI Phantom 1 with a GoPro camera that I loved unfortunately I lost battery power over a stock pond at our place in Okie land and is self landed into the pond. Going to try and salvage it but I am ordering a Phantom 3 standard as soon as I have the funds. Here is a web site with one for $479.00 https://www.dronegeeks.com/photograp...8XwaAiAD8P8HAQ

              I may be convinced to sell my DJI Phantom 2 Vision plus as I am looking to upgrade if you are interested. PM me for details.

                  Buy used for your first one. Rc models lose 50 percent of value as soon as you open them.

                  Check out

                  Rcgroups.com

                  Lots of good information on there as well as a dedicated drone classifieds area.

                          .... or at a minimum, fly it within a mile of another person's property and say that you did so in this forum.
