If we could get autonomous drones, I would have one hold up an umbrella to shield me from the sun at all times as I walk around, lol!
I’ve used mine to blow the leaves out of gutters on the roof. Just fly very low and let the prop wash do the work.
Creative!
Airdrop spiders on the loud party down the road.
I actually own and use drones for these things:
Scouting out roads/hiking-biking trails/camping spots/photog raphy spots. The drone has saved a good bit of time, and kept me from going down some real nasty roads for no payoff or just regular roads that dead end somewhere that has no view, or already has someone parked at. Similarly my ebike is also helpful for scouting out roads to see if it’s worth taking the van down. Yes, I’m conscious of drone laws and how obnoxious they are, I do my best to minimize noise and am careful about not bothering people, people deserve to hear nature in nature.Figuring out if I have to clean the gutters again.
Make friends.
One time I used it as a birds eye view with VR(ish) goggles for fun. It was fun, it was awful.
Take pictures of a friend’s van’s solar installation for insurance purposes.Things I do that aren’t weird:
Take aerial photography/videography.
Fly around and have fun.I may use a drone for the following, but have yet to:
Get a different view to see if I’m gonna run the van into tree limbs, rocks, etc.
Fly a cup of sugar to a neighbor who would like to borrow some.
Have an outdoor “ceiling” light.If you have any questions, ask away.
Selfies. It has a better camera than my phone
I used my Dji for a group family photo at Christmas. I let my cousin try to balance his iPhone and set a timer a few times before it hit me.
I do this too, air 2s. I have to do the pics anyway. So much easier than camera + tripod + timer. I’m one of the taller ones too so I can stand in the back with the remote behind someone else.
That is a very long way to spell db
