Anyone got a drone?

Have been wondering if i want to get a drone with thermal for helping farmers to not run over baby deers etc before mowing and for rescue. Costs abouts 60 000 nok.
 
Apparently the good ones can be programmed with a homing type setting so that if things go wrong it flies itself to somewhere you want. My mate bought a second hand expensive one for £400. He didn’t set this. He flew it the very first time, next to Hatchmere, and it had already been set by the previous owner, he pressed the wrong button and it sailed off over the trees never to be seen again. He literally got less than a minute from it. It still makes me laugh. He used to go out searching for it in the direction it flew every weekend.
Did the same guy buy a homing pidgeon.
 
Any of the DJI minis will give you decent results, the mini 4k is just a rebadged mini 2, the mini 3 with the controller with built in screen is a better buy. Get the flymore kit with the extra batteries if you can
 
Done a little bit at the end of this video with a mini 3 so you can see what its like

 
Had a DJI Phantom 4 Pro for around 5 years . Flew it maybe 3 times . Bought a CJI Mini 4 Pro last December . Apart from a brief glimpse when i bought it , i`ve not had it out of it`s case . Just not managed to find the time to fly them with work etc . And my old Phantom being over 250g has a lot more restrictions on where i can fly it now . Going to make a extra effort next year to get out with them both though .
