I don't know much about drones but Im curious what part of Rt. 66 are you gonna be traveling on and as many folks take different modes of transportation on the Mother Road, are you driving a tractor or going by car or truck. Living not far off of 66 and farming close to it Ive seen many a bicycle rider, groups and individuals, groups of classic cars, motorcycles, and hikers out packing cross country. I even periodically take one of my ACs out for a drive on 66. I've even given many a bicycler or hiker a ride to shelter during inclimate weather. Its always interesting to hear about what they have encountered on their journey and what things are like in the areas they call home.

I have a neighbor who is a realtor. They drone a lot of remote property that’s hard to get to.
They wear one out ever so often.
I’ll see what he says?

Driving a car or my white pickup. I'm not yet 100 % sure where I'm gonna wind up on the route. Probably start at St Louie and head west. I'm sorta disappointed in this guide book. Its about 1/2 the size it looked on Amazon. Like I've been saying the car seats have somehow gotten smaller over the years. I'm looking for a Impala or something big enough I can travel comfortable in.

I always had an interest in those and checked the price a few years ago. Changed my mind because I tried to fly RC planes. I destroyed a several. Had a divot in my shed roof from a 100mph nose dive. That was a WOW moment.

Just looked and found a possible idiot proof one with an option of 2 for $159. Has a camera and all that. Got 2 because I know what I am capable of. WTH why not. Don't expect much but the ratings were good, spent a hell of a lot more on RC planes. I still have on in the basement I spent 3 months building and am afraid to fly it.

You realize that shooting them down is a felony, and you can do serious jail time for doing so.
