Picked up a DJI Drone

Hey Guys, I managed to get my hands on a DJI Drone. Decided to give it a shot and fly it around at 80 Meters in the air it's pretty nuts. Looking forward to making videos including my e92 M3. Does anyone on the forums have much experience with them? Would love some tips!!!

Here is the video i recorded.. Let me know what you think!

Very cool. I'm seriously thinking about getting one. We have a couple dozen turkey vultures living in the trees behind our house. I'd love to fly a drone over by them or maybe join them when they're soaring around our yard. How cool would that be?

I purchased it with the GPS Module, It lets you plan a route using IPhone,IPad Etc.. Then you can basically get it flying at any speed,height,direction and so on.you should definitely take a look into getting one. Just make sure you get the GPS add on. * Also lands where ever you want and comes back to you if there is a loss of signal.
