I started to gain an interest when I saw them for the first time. I used to mess with some really slick RC cars and trucks nearly a couple decades ago. A few were clocked at over 60 mph and after some tweaks went beyond that. I remember showing off to my nephew one day, shot the car up the road and began a quick U-turn just out of line of site. Just then I saw the thing do cart wheels in the air. When I walked up to it I noticed it had killed a squirrel. These cars/trucks were fun but man, these drones look absolutely amazing. I watched quite a few youtube vids, stunts, site seeing, racing etc. but, last night I found one that got me hooked. I picked up a cheapo for $30 from Barns and Noble last week. Completely expected it to fly apart at the seems when I started it up. Turned out, the thing takes a beating and keeps going. So, anyone here caught the bug like I have? Going to use this new addiction to pass the time til gfx cards come back down to $reality$
 
The vid that got me hooked  

Lol, I know trains won't swerve to avoid them. Yes, I am aware of the licensing requirements. I live in the boonies and will still follow regulations. Combined with vr glasses I think it just may be the closest humans will ever get to being able to have wings without putting on a squirrel suit and jumping from a plane.

We have some strict rules up here. Unless you apply and receive special permission, you cannot use the VR headsets. Any flights without additional permission must be done by line of sight between the operator and drone or a secondary person who has sight of both the operator and the drone and can clearly communicate with the operator at all times.
