I just bit the bullet and bought a DJI Mavic camera drone. I really like the part where it folds up to the size of a water bottle and you can slip it into a (big) pocket, yet it has camera stability and virtually all of the performance features of its big brother... the"Phantom" drone used to shoot TV commercials. Unfortunately it sounds like it will be several months before they catch up with the rush of orders and can ship. Oh well, Christmas in February.
