    If I were buying a new one I'd look hard at the mavic.
    Should be able to pick up a phantom 3pro for less than 1k. Pretty happy with mine.

    Never enough
    Your post is making me all nostalgic. My daughter just turned 2 today and was the same length and only an oz heavier than yours. They were even born near the same time of day. So many similarities. I hope your little girl brings you as much joy as mine has brought me.

    I think the one that was with us was a mavic. They were talking about a cheaper one but might not have follow me mode.

    One more thing to research now! :frusty:

    Anything in particular to look out for in a used drone other than it being duct taped back together?

    One HUGE necessity is small size. I think the DJI Mavic Pro is what he was using, and it just popped up on the lists of best drones. One major thing I liked was it was tiny. I wont have much room for some other beastly ones I've seen before.

    buy it new?
    https://www.amazon.com/DJI-Phantom-Professional-Quadcopter-Camera/dp/B00VYALUQ8?th=1


    or if you don't need the range of the pro...
    https://www.amazon.com/DJI-Phantom-...&qid=1496200701&sr=8-5&keywords=phantom+3+pro

    just saw your comment about the size... might want to just pony up for the Mavic.
    Buy once cry once. Unless you crash it then you can cry some more.

    Haha yeah, just watched a size comparison... not much comparison. Colors look better with the Phantom 3 but the size....

    And in the question area.. :rofl::rofl:

    Does this have the capacity to lift an infant?
    Answer:
    I've tested it's ability to do this twice. The first time was with my one day-old son, and it performed perfectly until the battery in the unit died over Lake Superior. Second time was with the replacement drone, and my 5 year old. (He's all I have left). It will not lift a 5 year old, sadly....

    Let me know when there should be a drone sitting in a field somewhere near your place.

    Those interested in Prinsu, there was a rumor going around that a certain TW Vendor that was at Expo West has bought out Prinsu. But again that's just rumors and I haven't seen anything posted anywhere
