| G'day! Yesterday visited daughter and s-i-law who juts bought a Mavic Mini for fun and stock surveillance  on their farm. Half inclined to take the plunge [as posted on here before!] - but think i'll wait a week or so and see how they get along with theirs. Mavic Mini cost ~ $600 Au. They had batteries charged, and were busy reading instructions, and had watched a couple of Utube videos. I think their mobile phones may not be modern enough to run the App for the controller. But that was to be todays 'find out'! So - back home - they live an hours drive away - got looking on Internet and E-bay.  Of course there are hundreds on ebay! Then up popped this advert for DroneX = for about $110 Au.  Their 'blurb' reckonned the 'name' brands were a rip off!  On a photo I noticed 'Emotion' on the body of their drone. What do NAT'ers know of DroneX   "the drone that almost wrecked the internet" ? Then on Ebay [Aust.] is this below - Emotion Drone Mavic Pro-Camera 720 Full HD - 360°+3x batteries-6 axesThe above for just over $100 Au.   The description include stuff like one button take off, one button take off and landing, GPS, altitude hold, trajectory flight, etc.  !! Any thoughts ?     TIA IF I bite the bullet and buy a drone -  would a Samsung 10.1 tablet be suitable as a controller screen. ???
