An affordable camera‐loaded remote‐controlled air vehicle is now available for civilian use, says Kit Eaton Five years ago, the DJI Phantom 2 Vision would have seemed like a science fiction film prop or a piece of surveillance hardware flown only by the sexiest of superspies. But it is the first camera‐carrying drone you may want to own ‐ and you could do that without spending thousands of dollars. This drone is an intelligent, remote‐controlled air vehicle that can fly far out of direct line of sight of its operator. It can record great video and photo stills from a thousand feet in the air over whatever target you can imagine. If it loses the connection to its remote control, it can even use GPS to fly automatically back to its launching point and land by itself. It is just like what you see on the news, only smaller, with about 20 to 25 minutes of flying time and less aggressive missions.
