Yeah, the DJI Phantom 4...

was the drone the guy in Bora Bora had.. I asked him what type he had whenever I saw his footage, which was stunning.. I think they run about $800-$1000 or so, with the camera, but as we know, that ain't jack for good quality video..

I'm with ya - one of my oldest bucket list items is to get my pilot's license - or certificate, I think they actually call it - here anyway.. But, and I know I've mentioned this before, I don't know what I'd do with it after I got it.. Nobody here rents planes and I can't afford one - not a good one, anyway.. So, may never happen, but I would LOVE to do the sunrise/sunset flights you mention.. and I'd love to be able to fly to Dallas, or anywhere I wanted or needed to go..

I'll probably fly my cheapo drone this weekend some more.. Like I said, not much stability, so tough to control, but that could only help me to be a better drone "pilot" if I ever get a good one.. Yeah, the cameras don't have zooms, but if they shoot at 4K you could simulate a zoom and render out at 1080p HD, so keep that in mind..

But, yeah, I hate it when people use them when I'm trying to relax.. the first time I heard the guy in Bora flying his, I would have chunked a rock at it if I could have.. I'll try to find his footage and tag you in it on facebook..
