Do you have a drone in your toybox? DJI has a <250gr drone coming out that's supposedly getting up to 30 minutes of flight time. I'm not interested in this drone specifically, but as those small drones get better specs I'm getting more interested. I wouldn't want to carry a small dog, but something useful that fits in a daypack pocket I could get into.

I do but I roll my own.

Salad days of FPV and essentially 80% frames thanks to fact that I have a CNC router mill.

40in TV for scale with 13in prop build resting on top.

Prototyping a frame that would have between 60-80 pounds of thrust with 22in props. Tiny 3.5in sub-250 is laying on floor.

I have a Phantom 3 Pro that I have never flown. Don't feel like messing with the FAA bullshit.

I have a Mavik Mini after holding off from buying for a long time.

I could not be happier. This thing is awesome! Get the "Fly More Kit" with it.

Ditto.
The thing is stupid easy to fly, and can do anything from recon to performing as a replacement for a spotting scope.

Just flew the mini for work yesterday. No need for the Mattrice. Easy to get up and out a bit. Only problems were working around the weather (Rain) and the wind was pushing it on landing.

Minis seem pretty cool.
