Buying a drone

Been thinking about buying a big one. Any recommendations? One to take pictures of flea markets, festivals, farm steads, etc. I am broke down this week, darn lower back is giving me a real hard time. I dug out my 10's unit and it wouldn't recharge. Had to make a trip to squallmart and pick up a new one. Darn elcheapo shuts off every 15 minutes instead of 1/2 hour like the other 2 I had. Hardly able to stand up. Chiropractor did acupuncture and attempted to pop it. Will head back to him on Monday.

I've been thinking I'd like to have a drone too. I'd like to have something with infrared capability on the camera though. There are lots of them out there and priced all over the place, and I'm no help at all in figuring out a good one.
 Hope the chiro can get you back in order soon. I spent most of last summer and fall laid up because I tried to line up the 3 point disc to my tractor last spring and actually crushed  one of those t bones down low. I'll be taking time to go get a pry bar from now on.

I like the guy who flew his above the intruder, dropped a fishnet on it ! FREE drone !!!

All the tools I use now are 3 point, and my current go to tractor is  red and gray(230 Massey) one that never hand snap couple I have in mind , a simple tool to make, to line up that last 1/2 to 3/4 inch on the lift arms, just need to put it together.

SIL bought his son one two years ago. Took it out of the box, took it outside, launched it and never seen it again!

Guys thanks for the back advice, but if I was to get down on the floor, I'd never get back up. Oldest son will be here tomorrow. He's gonna help me set my inversion table back up then he said he'd put the single phase conversion box on my wheel balancer. I wanted to go to a sale today. The Goodyear dealer was selling out. Old boy has Alzheimer's real bad. But shucks, I couldn't hardly walk. I'm sitting here tonight, old gals heart is acting up again, beating 190 per minute. Might have to run her into the ER again. They had to give her a jump start 3 times last year. She has little green pills to control that, but she refuses to take them. Oh well it usually takes about 1/2 hour to settle down, if it don't slow down by then it's off on a hundred mile round trip. Hope the coffee at the horsepistol is better than last time we were there.

So far in the last 3 years I have bagged 3 of them damn spies! --- Don't know where they came from ---don't care! ---- IF you got one,--keep it over your own property!

BIL has a drone and two features it has is auto home. Push one button and it will drive itself back to where it took off from and land. Other neat feature is when the battery gets low it will auto return home before the battery dies on you. Maybe they all have that but I thought that was pretty neat.

For Christmas I bought the grandson three little drones just for inside the house. No camera on these little thinks. They are about the size of a grapefruit in diameter but look like a UFO. Charge them up, then just toss them and they will start up and hover inside the house on their own. If they get too close to something they will move away. They run about 6 minutes on a charge. He loved them and best part they were only $10 each.
