Anyone got one, going to get one ? Will it be a short term fad or a long term menace ?

Due to all the restrictions in their use in the UK, one is not on my Christmas list - pity, I would have enjoyed using one for photography. _________________ David

I'm not so sure. The owner of the garage where I take our moderns and to MOT the old is an experienced model aircraft builder and operator. Recently he built his own drone from an imported kit and equipped with a quality still and video camera he has found himself in demand from estate agents to take aerial photographs of properties for sale or to let.
Quite renumerative as well. _________________ Starting Handle Expert
