so, the drone that some inexperienced idiot flew from his balcony to the sidewalk in NYC is a total loss of $1000 for the flyer.
The Phantom Quadcopter is $450 and the GoPro camera is around $400.
I was thinking about buying this set up. Then, YouTube says that handling the copters is hard. They say that the flight out requires certain movements on the control panel, while on the return...everything is reversed.
Dang! knew right then why I never understood the remote cars my kids liked as children.
