New toy, dji mini 3 pro, did a quick panoramic and stitch of home before I flew inside to thaw out, 7C, absolutely freezing by our standards.
Anyway, this is home

Nice! Just last night I had dinner with somebody who had spent three weeks in your country/continent, hunting and fishing with her BF. She had pictures of some nice fish they caught, and one of the 5 cape buffalo (?) which they took. Apparently they do so to thin the herd, and leave the animals for the predators to feed on.

How do you like the DJI mini 3 pro? I'm researching drones now and have mostly decided on the DJI Mavic Air 2.

I have one of the first Mavics which has been good until recently, the drone and controller have a communication problem, this one has the full controller which was an option and I don't need a phone, start up is faster and easier and navigating the functions is also easier, very light but not flimsy, fairly quiet by drone standards.
I have only had it a day but pleased with the image quality which has taken a hiding here with the reduction, a few panoramic modes and landscape or Portrait mode which I will probably never use.
I got the small flymore pack, 2 batteries, carry case, props and a few other bits, there is a bigger one with bigger batteries but given I have never flown more than 15 minutes I didn't see the point.
Can tell you more when I use it more

i had to read that twice :)

referring to the landscape, not the poster's experience - LOL

i think drones can be fun. Not on my list yet.

A green landscape is so obvious to us around here. We are in the middle of summer - extreme heat - almost 100% of the vegetation has withered away and is tan.

I had a drone fly over two years ago. It was heading due west. I'll just bet it had gone beyond the range of the owners control box. About 250 feet above the ground - just kept going until completely out of sight.

This has a range of 12km, according to DJI, I took it to the back boundary which is about 1.5km, not ssure I would want to go further, 250' I can't see or hear it, big brother is watching, I know they look for illegal 'plantations' with them.

i own a air 2, you can hear it coming from 1000 feet away if your even remotely listening for it. they aren't remotely silent.
