Which Drone?

(1/4) > >>

Flyin6:
I would like to purchase a drone to help me document trips, the farm, events, who knows what

I do not know enough about the subject to even be dangerous

I do however know what I would like to get out of one:

Long flight time of 25 minutes or more
I would like it to couple to my cell phone
Simple controls
Follow me mode
Good terrain and hazard avoidance
Some return to home automatic safe mode if:
   It gets lost
   Looses signal
   Battery gets low
GPS coupled
Moderate cost
Great camera which is stabilized
Not too large
Proven
I want to see what it sees from my controller or cell phone
Autonomous mode so I can hands free and have the thing film me and the boys doing things like fly fishing

I was looking at the Mavic, then the Holy Stone HS 720, then...

What would you folks who are knowledgeable suggest I purchase?

Flyin6:
Or should I get one that can just mount a Go-Pro?

KensAuto:
Most of the utube guys I watch (and pretty sure JR approved) use some version of the DJI mavic...the Zoom model is pretty popular.

OK
I certainly see a lot of information about those out there

KensAuto:
I bet JR will chime in after he runs out of fuel in Dug.
