I would not mind owning one, but then it becomes another tool for one to become a slave of.

Between this jack weed comment and you confusing Mexican immigration with customs I'm going to go ahead and say you are having a very bad week.

Wow, that thing is awesome. It's hard to believe that something like this will eventually be $99....

Bought a DJI Phantom 3 for a great price and can't wait to play with it in Bahia next week. Amazing that they can package all this and make it so user friendly for so cheap! Time to go whale sharking!

...and that money made by zillions of $2/hour workers would jack the price of one-bedroom apartment into upper 5-digits (and shrink the size to below 500 sq.ft).

One thing I know - not believe but know - is that a pellet gun to shoot this big mosquito down costs less then $99 :yawn:

Given that drones are regulated by the FAA, shooting one down may be a federal offense!

In my neighborhood there are two types of drone pilots, adolescent boys, and older males that are most certainly peeping-tom perverts.

Mine is the 3 Standard. Yes it has the follow me function. But I don't think it has the "spy on old goats" function. Very cool stuff.
