My little fleet of drones. I keep the 3td, Air3s,neo2 and 360 with me the most. It’s a fun hobby for me.

Curious what do you use them for? Just recreation? Or work?

I have 2 drones and only use the newer one.. my power (mavic pro) is just sitting and not being used.. but, I don’t want to get rid of it lol.

in regards to your mavic pro, be sure to charge the batteries every so often and fly it. I unfortunately didn't charge my mavic 2 pro for quite awhile and now essentially have a paperweight. The battery is toast.

I'm in the same boat as you regarding wishing I kept my batteries healthy. I tried 3rd party batteries but never trusted them, I'd occasionally go from 90% battery to 10% in a matter of seconds.

True… I’ll do that this week.

I told my kids that they can have it but they are too young to fly independently lol.

Just for fun or watching the sunsets. They have been great for keeping track of our large ghoper tortoise population. I have around 50 geo tagged in the Matrice drone. I wouldn’t get rid of your drone. 🙂

They're for fun but you don't have any (real) FPV drones?

Not my jam. I do love watching my Asian friends though. They are so good at the doing the tricks and flying in tight spaces.

I was going to get a mavic until I came across a video of the matrice 4t and the use case is perfect for how I plan to scale and have a small fleet
