So, you want to fly drones?
Getting your first drone.
Its perhaps not the best plan to rush out and spend a grand or more on
your first aircraft. Many flyers will crash at least once, or even lose a
drone because they havent learned how to control it properly. You do
need plenty practice with them.
In effect, if you can't afford to lose it or damage it, it shouldn’t be your first aircraft. Buy something reasonably priced while you learn to fly. You can upgrade later. Try to stay under 250g weight for your first, as it does give you more freedom on where and when you can fly.
For your first aircraft, I would suggest
Amazon as they have a very a good stock of drones that suit all budgets
and abilities, including DJI drones that are amongst the best you can
get. They also have a very good delivery network.
I've put together a selection of
12 drones from Amazon below.
I havent flight tested any of them
other than the DJI Mini 3 Pro, which is excellent.
All of the ones below have 4 out
of 5 stars or better in Amazon reviews. But DO check the full spec and
the reviews before buying one.
