Anyone here have a drone? I'm thinking of buying one. But the price varies so much and there are many makes and models. I found a ruko that looks pretty decent. About middle of the price range.

What do you guys have and what do you think of ruko

start with a cheap one until you learn how to fly it and see what they can/can't do in dif weather. best people to ask what to buy for better ones is the rail road or law enforcement, they both need good units for what they use them for. even the cheap ones have pretty good cameras on them.

I have a Swiftstream. Not expensive but auto land feature which is nice but not fool proof. Not a skilled flier yet

I've thought of getting one to fly around during deer season. I wonder if you could drive deer back to you with one?

Don’t get caught in Iowa doing that.

I've been flying them for years. Currently have a DJI Mini2. Super easy to fly and takes great pictures and video.
