I constantly hear my friends telling me: “I want a Mavic Pro. It is cool, powerful, and exciting to fly.” I agree with my friends. These days as technology drastically increases, new and innovative are regularly being released on the market. The drone age has certainly revolutionized our way of thinking and the age has retrospectively pushed us in a direction to facilitate task and conduct business in a very efficient way. In fact, in the near future when you order a product on amazon, you may see your package being delivered from the air and not the ground.


1.Affordable– the first reason why you should purchase a drone is that it is affordable. The truth is you don’t have to invest a lot of money on a drone. People have the misconception that every drone on the market is expensive. That is far from the truth. When you conduct research on drone, you may find drones costs as little as $60. That is cheap considering the fact that this high tech gadget is equipped with very powerful quadcopter motors and the drone has the capability of flipping upside down while in flight.

2. Enjoyable hobby- the second reason why you should purchase a drone is for leisure. Flying a drone is not only an enjoyable hobby, but it is also a great stress reliever. The last thing I want to think about after work is work. Flying a drone gives you such a sense of relieve and serenity as you slowly propel your drone to the skies and watch your powerful drone gently glide over the ocean.





3. Stunning Photos- the third reason why you should purchase a drone is to produce stunning and impressive photos. The scenes could be anything from a beautiful turquoise ocean to a towering mountain. The scene could even be of yourself. In fact, people would love to have a drone shot of their family. Drones such as the DJI Spark can react based upon motion. For instance, a wave of the hand at the drone can cause your photo to be taken. The photos included in this article took place at beaches in Japan.




4. Stunning videos– the fourth reason why you should purchase a drone is to produce stunning and amazing videos. Many You-tubers may oftentimes show a drone footage at the beginning of their videos to produce that “wow” factor! The drone footage keeps the viewer engaged as the video transitions to another scene.





5. Impress your friends– the fifth reason why you should purchase is to impress your friends. When you show your friends your drone video, they may be very amazed. My friends were in awe when they watched my first drone video. In fact, they loved the video so much, they shared it to their friends on social media. Don’t be surprised if you receive an overwhelming number of “likes” and “comments” on your first aerial video. You can find my drone videos above.



6. Simple to fly– the sixth reason why you you should purchase a drone is it is simple to fly. You have the option of flying your drone on your phone or on a remote controller. I would highly recommend the latter since the battery in your phone may be dramatically depleted. Flying a drone using your phone can be very difficult and requires much practice.

I own a Mavic Pro Drone. The first time I flew the drone I was very anxious. However, I was amazed how simple it was to fly. To operate this particular drone, you will do the following: (1) Switch drone from “Wi-Fi” to “RC;” (2) Turn on the drone by holding the button down for two seconds and then pressing the button two more times; (3) Attach your phone to the Remote controller adapter; (4) launch the DJI 4 app; (5) launch the drone by pressing the lift off button on the left side of the screen.

Currently, you can purchase a vr head set that allows you to fly your drone. Having this VR Headset gives you the impression that you are actually piloting the drone. This way is very fun and exhilarating. It is important though to exercise caution and know you’re surroundings before flying a drone with your friend.

10. Protect Yourself and Your Assets– the tenth reason why you should purchase a drone is to vitally protect yourself and your assets. This last reason may sound odd; however, drones are very powerful and fast. You launch your drone towards your suspect and chances are he will immediately flee the area.
