Best Drone’s under $1000 for 2018
Drone’s have gotten to be a huge market for the aerial hobby enthusiasts. They are much easier to control then plane’s and even helicopters generally speaking. With the addition of a quality camera you can get some great still shots or video to share. Some of these have several different modes for shooting great video/stills. You can program them to follow you or take a certain path using GPS.
Here’s the best drone’s under $1000 I’ve found for 2018 so far.

The Mavic is only 1/6th the size of the Phantom 4 and is capable of reaching an absolute max flight time of 27 minutes and a maximum distance of 8mi (13km) due to its powerful, high efficiency motors. The Mavic works in tandem with DJI’s GO mobile app for accessing settings, getting a telemetry readout, viewing a low-latency video feed, and even editing and sharing your footage. In addition traditional joystick style controls, you can fly with simple tap-based commands, and the Mavic can even recognize gestures for the perfect selfie |

Through cooperation between the pilot and the photographer, capturing breathtaking still images and video has never been easier.
