Was watching a few video's on scouting with a drone......and it seems the deer pick up on the drone and spook....quite quickly......and dont like them at all. Not sure how viable it is as a scouting tool. Seems somewhat unethical, immoral, and illegeal.......I like that aspect (not really).....grin.

I spent a long time researching drones. The conclusion I came to is that they're way too expensive to get one that will deliver any kind of worthwhile use. The big things I found that drove cost/value:
Range Run time Photo/video quality Ease of operation

Video quality and pics are impressive, mine a middle of the line cost wise.

Bebop2 has 14 mp cam. Videos are amazingly stable and clear. Run time is only 20 minutes but plenty for my simple needs. Love it. Super easy to fly using an ipad. I paid 160 bucks for it. Its a refurb with 1 year warranty.
