(Poll) How old are we?

[Moonwalker]

Turned 78 last month with 1 Mavic Pro, 2 Phantom 3’s, 1 M-Benz Cabriolet, plenty of women, and loving life.

Well, this thread has given me comfort in knowing you're never too old to play with toys....

58.....Just got into the hobby a few months ago and purchased the Mavic Pro. Live in the northeast, the weather has been brutal...Only had it out 3 times. Really looking forward to getting it flying!

You nailed it joejaxvic123, life is too short not to enjoy it to the fullest. The only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.

67 retired but not tired. Happy to be this age and loving life. P3 pro, Inspire 1 v2, Mavic Pro. Live in the desert Southwest with lots of places to fly but the batteries and I hate the summer.

65, born 1952. I am a surprised to see that half of those reporting in on this query are between the ages of 50 and 70. Maybe the quad-copter community needs a youth movement to ensure our longevity. Meanwhile, all of you out there, keep flying, stay safe, and continue to try out new drones and report on your experiences.

That age demographic caught my eye as well. I expected a younger age group normally, who are tech savvy, and may have discretionary income to pursue unmanned vehicular aircraft interest.

Well played, sir, well played. (Slow clap)

51 with a 25 year old mentality

 

[joejaxvic123]

Seems like the older I get, the more my sense of humor matures. But maybe that's just me....

It's either DJI drones aren't that cheap for the younger age group or they prefer racing drones or their funds are tied up chasing partners or starting a family.

Congratulations!

It’s kind of nice having seen this poll. Now the group, well I feel more in touch with it. The mental picture I have had of the average responder just aged 40 to 50 years and I feel more at home. Thanks guys.

[Jake 61]

[Tallent]

That would make another good poll. 'How much does your wife, partner, significant other, think you paid for your Mavic?'
