Remote View Camera Drones…..anyone have experience with one ?

Hello all….

As we “begin to begin to prepare” for our Bahamas trip we are considering buying a drone. We thought it might be nice to post videos to the blog, plus we can use it to advance scout for coral heads…..

We are looking at this one since it has a remotely viewable camera via iPad, can be controlled on any smart device and a 23 minute flight time with a 150′ range.  It can also record……any thoughts or suggestions ? We’d like to keep the drone investment under $200…..

I'm the average sailor...converted from a landlubber of course. While I was born with a love of the ocean it has evolved into a love of sailboats and other vessels that ply the open seas and connected waterways. I am probably like most of the people who (hopefully) will read our blog with the exception that we are now doing what we always dreamed of doing and I hope to help others do the same. I am NOT any of the following...a naval architect, a marine surveyor or connected commercially to any builder, distributor or boat sales organization. My opinions are generally my own, although influenced by many years of research.
