Well, I'm just about to hit the button on purchasing a Mini 2 (fly more pack)... my first ever drone. It's part of the annual ritual which involves my wife asking me what I want for Christmas, me telling her, and her then asking me to get it as she doesn't know a. what it is, b. where to get it and c. how to 'work the internet'. It does somewhat ruin the surprise, but as least it isn't an electric toothbrush or socks.?
Actually, I've been eyeing a drone for some time. I enjoy taking photos and video and use them frequently as I have a fishing blog and write odd articles for a few fishing mags in the UK too. Having a small, portable drone will literally bring a while new angle on things. Obviously there's a hint at the particular element of hazard there... water! Man, I'm already nervous and I haven't even bought the **** thing yet. All my other photographic and video kit is waterproof and usually tethered to me like mittens to a toddler, so I couldn't lose any of it if I wanted to. This however, is going to be a whole new ball-game!
I'm no doubt going to have an awful lot of questions so I hope you'll bear with me! First things first...is it worth finding somewhere that'll actually give beginner lessons?
