Thought I'd share this video since the topic came up not too long ago. Really gives you an idea of the range/capabilities of modern drone tech. I'm liking the Mavic because of the fold-up portability.

I've been getting more interested in these things lately but I'm not too familiar with them. This thing looks like a toy! A pricey toy but it's tiny and the performance is terrific. Now if I just had one that would do 3D and underwater. Wait for it. :mrgreen:

One of my favorite Moto-Vloggers likes the Mavic for the portability. The drone folds up into the size of a large waterbottle and you can fit it and all the gear in a small backpack.

I can see a sort of voyeurcam scene developing around a drone but I'm not about to invest in one for that.

The drone's buzzing sound would give it away.

I think you might be surprised at how difficult they are to detect from a few hundred feet.
