Your all are wondering what I got for a birthday present? MoparMom suggested I pick up a drone. Yeah, I said a drone... It came today and got to fly it twice now. rather fun to fly and feature rich. I got a udiRC FPV drone. Really quite sturdy drone. Flying time is about 6-8 minutes per battery charge. It charges off a normal USB port so I can even charge the batteries in the truck. It can with a portable charging pack too. The camera function works on your cell phone over WiFi.

As for flying this little craft it not really hard but it does when you get some distance away from yourself. I'm enjoying this drone eventually I'll be able to fly by using the video footage.

A cousin has one and they live on a really long dirt road driveway. Every now and then a random car will end up at the very end. He'll send the drone down there to check things out. Needless to say, they don't stick around long after!

What if it's a mail man

pretty cool there Mike. The wife bought us one. The battery would not last but about 3 minutes and then took an hour to recharge. About the time you start getting the hang of it, it would die. By the time the battery would recharge I had forgotten every thing I learned.

For the first time it wasn't to bad.  Getting it back in one peace is all ways a success.  A little more air time and it will be Fireman Mike to the rescue.

Ya, I know, drones around fires are a no-no.

IBM will be using one of those to go fishing, casting clear across the lake and trolling.

It's called fly drone fishing.
