Just think of the miles walking you would save with that looking for Turkeys.

Now if you could attach a Rem. 870 with a Jellyhead choke, you could really have an edge on those wily long beards.
Re: New scouting drone
You can't lose it. It will fly out of range and come back by gps if you can't see it. Please its 2014 time to replace your jitterbug with an I phone fellas .
Re: New scouting drone
Thats pretty cool Gobbler, does this one have the option for you to program a flight path on your computer and then send the plane off. The reason i'm asking i worked for a paving company as a CE intern and we had a drone that we could program a flight path and it would take pictures at set intervals or it would video then we would use a computer program to download the data and convert it into a 3d map that allowed us to calculate quantities of dirt moved or measure rock piles. you would be able to survey a whole piece of property in an hour or two! Pretty neat would like to have one of my own to fool around with!

Re: New scouting drone
Why even bother with a drone when you can just sit on the computer at home and hunt ?

Wonder if we could wrap a Feather Flex Decoy around that bad boy and land it in a gobblers face. Add some audio and bingo bango.
Put you plans in the nail scarred hands.

Yep, we have lots of them at the flying field. Quads, hex's, and Octs. Most guys with cams, have a vid screen, or goggles they can see what the drone sees live. They can fly around, or put it in the gps where they want it to go. When they are finished, they simply push return, and the thing will come back and land in the same exact spot it took off from, without touching the controls.
I don't have one, but they are cool to watch.
My Corvette buddy has 6 of them. He takes his up with the cam, and I will fly one of my stunt planes along side of it, and hover while he vids it. Wish I could find one of those vids, I'd post it.
