Ouch $4,999 is quite the price for the Cine. That’s not a cheap drone. Wonder what they’re going to do with pricepoint for the future releases in the Inspire line.
For that kind of price one almost needs to use the drone to make some money. Definitely out of my range. But for less then $50 I bought a basic drone from walmart that was awesome to fly. It could take pictures mind you the camera was fixed so you had to turn the drone the way you wanted to shoot. It was a hell of a lot of fun and I am thinking of getting another one some time to fly around the yard.
Having used one, and then upgraded to a Mavic Mini, $50 drones terrify me now. They're a safety hazard, both to you, and to anyone around you at the point you're flying them.
A proper drone with GPS, an IMU, and visual position keeping is going to hold its position in really quite strong winds. $50 drones are going to get whisked off in the first stiff breeze, and then to top that as soon as they lose signal from the controller they'll either kill the rotors straight away and fall out of the sky, or they'll continue flying in whatever direction they're going until the batteries go flat, and then fall out of the sky. Possibly onto someone's head.
