So what other hobbies do you guys have besides hunting? I don't have the luxury of living "upstate" in the woods (even though I wish I could). I think my hobbies would be slightly different if I did. Anyways, besides spending as much time as I can at our property upstate, real life gets in the way all the time. I've been building, flying and racing drones for well over a year now, it is a blast. It is an expensive hobby, but its to much fun to explain, it satisfies the geek and adrenaline junkie in me. The drones / quads are from FPV (First Person View) meaning you wear goggles, its as if you are sitting on the thing. Few pics / vids:

Yes, the server was down. Will explain more later, on the train now. In short the dedicated server I rent had the motherboard die on it, it's restored right now and running on a temp server while the other one is repaired. Was not fun but at least it's up.

Off topic, not hunting but man it's a fun hobby

The air folds too, you are thinking of the spark. The air is way different from the spark (more features then the pro even) Sent from my LG-US998 using Tapatalk -

True, but u can't beat the portability of a Mavic and it gets same flight time as the phantom. I picked up one referbed last year for my wife to give to me for Xmas. I already took it to Florida and I'll be taking it to the Bahamas in a few weeks toss it in a backpack and you are good to go. Sent from my LG-US998 using Tapatalk -

Yeah airplanes are neat but one crash and you done. I break the quads a lot but repairs are pretty cheap and take quite the beating before breaking. Sent from my LG-US998 using Tapatalk -

Those videos are real time. My drone builds can do about 0 to 100mph in 2 seconds I can kill a battery in 2 minutes flat. I have a lot of batteries haha. Sent from my LG-US998 using Tapatalk -

Definitely check it out. You could also get a referbed Mavic pro, but the air is pretty neat and has a few more sensors then the pro. Sent from my LG-US998 using Tapatalk -

Depends, what is your budget? For photography and portability and ease of use the Mavic Air is pretty neat. -

It's my dad's cabin / retirement home and my weekend getaway when I can. For those that are interested this is what my drones look like, all built and programed from scratch. No auto leveling or GPS bs, these are made for racing and freestyle. It is hard to learn at first, but after the 2-3 month learning curve it's smooth sailing. I bought a 3d printer right after I got into the hobby quickly realizing I'll be using that a lot. Posted another video below of some racing from last year, it's just way to much fun. My wife thinks I'm crazy and wants to kill me. -

Nice, I love it, been doing it for just over a year and have built at least 9 racing drones already. Love the Taranis, it's what I use. BTW the new r-xsr receivers are awesome and weigh like a gram.
