Which drone(s) do you have and what do you use them for?

What are people running now? Any tips for shooting? What are people editing with? Just got a Mavic 2 Pro. Super easy to fly, and the photo and video resolution is awesome. Just still learning the ins and outs.
 
I have a Mavic Pro which I bought in 2017. This summer I bought a second one so that I'd have a backup in case anything happened to the first one during a trip.

The Mavic Pro 2 has some nice features. If I wasn't already invested in the earlier model, I'd buy a MP2.
 
I had two drones, the first one I bought and it was just terrible, but I was happy with my second drone. He has a good camera, so I often shoot beautiful landscapes. It shoots in 2K , do you think there are drones that shoot in 4K? .I want to buy myself a good drone, and choose between two interesting options on Home | The Buyers Impact however, the main qualities that I need in a drone is a great camera and a good battery that will keep a charge for a long time. I hope to buy a drone in about 2 weeks, because I'm going North of Denver soon, and I want to take great pictures

So I'm not a drone guy. Don't know a damn thing about 'em.
But I do have a question for those of you who are savvy.

Is there a modestly priced drone out there strong enough to carry and distribute a liquid payload? Say, a gallon or more.

There are a load of illegal cannabis grows 'round my parts and I'd like to "liquidate" some problems.

You’re serious...?
 
Yup.

If the law can't (or won't) adequately dissuade illegal growers in this NorCal county (Trinity) - because the federal green provided by growers of illegal green pad the back pockets of county supervisors and local law - then it becomes up to residents packing sufficient nut sacks to do something about it.

The best way to hit 'em where it hurts is their crop.
So, again, I ask - are there marketed drones that can carry some weight, along with a wireless camera for guidance?
A little, judicious dab o' Round Up will go a long way.

You do realize that if you spray their crops with roundup they will sell the weed anyway, which will poison people?

This is not to mention what the poison will do to the natural vegetation and the wildlife that eats that vegetation!

Yes, there are several that shoot 4k video. The DJI Mavic Pro I bought in 2017 shoots 4k, and the newer versions do too. DJI also makes the Phantom series which shoots 4k plus has other high-end features.

As an ecologist, watching illegal growers drain and pollute waters from salmon fisheries in the Pacific Northwest, I could argue with you about timing and targeting when plants are young and using a drift control product with a low spray altitude... But I won't waste my time or yours. I understand and appreciate your concerns.

I'm not asking for education or permission.
I simply asked if anyone would be willing to advise on a capable drone.
And the question still stands.


Oh - and that's post number 15.
At last.
