It's a small hobby of mine with an unknown amount of potential applications. I;m going to buy a kit to build and program my own. I could possibly get into getting a permit to fly it professionally and maybe even make a little cash from aerial photos or something. Drones are the future man, they've even started to do drone deliver services and such. I have a cheap one I fly around at night and the light show alone is worth the 30 bucks it cost. You can add all kinds of hardware to it, some a lot more costly then others. Sonar to do topographical maps, HD go pro cameras for aerial shots. You can get another drone and put this laser tag thing on them. You can get the stunt drone's and do all kinds of little tricks and flips and swooshes. I mean, if you're interested in aerial things at all it's a fun little hobby. I was talking to another roofer online and he claimed there was a gigantic church with a slate roof. He was paid a couple thousand just for the bid alone because he used his drone and took a lot of digital pictures of the damage in areas it wouldve been impossible to look out without a crane or boom.

I'm using cyber Monday to get deals and free shipping on household items we regularly use so I don't have to buy them or pay more throughout the year.

If you're into taking picture or even video it provides a unique birds eye view and can make very nice cinematic swooping shots in video. Some of the really expensive onces have proximity sensors and can follow paths or waypoints using gps... can follow you and recognize you specifically... can avoid walls and stuff using proximity censor.
A bunch of drone engineers made a real life space invades game. check it out:

If you're into drones you should look into RC helicopters as a hobby. They're a lot more challenging and rewarding.
I might just get back into the hobby this winter and order some parts for Cyber Monday.

I tried a friends indoor RC helicopter once before and it feels like the drones have waaaay more capabilities and versatility. altitude, gravity, stunt modes... headless mode for beginners. this one im looking at can sync with my phone and I can set a path via gps and it even have a return option where it flys back in the direction it came so you don't loose it when sending it out beyond eye-sight and using the first-person-view option via it's HD aerial camera.

You probably tried a coaxial or fixed pitch model. Even the sub-micro collective pitch models are very lacking.
A 'proper' (300-700 size) collective pitch heli is more capable than any drone. The advantage drones have is the stability. In that respect they're better for shooting video and whatnot. That and when you crash a drone it isn't totaled.
If you're into the hands-on flight at all I recommend at least giving an RC flight simulator a chance.
There's a lot of fun to be had in the world of RC planes and helicopters.

Not really. Certain markets yes. Otherwise it's like life. The same old repetitive shit, just repackaged.
