Anybody have experience with drones...may pick one up

If you decide to get one then you better buy a couple of batteries for it just for the fact that it takes forever to charge and only last at tops 15 min maybe 30 depends on the size and make. I enjoy the one I flew just never used it for scouting

Question: If the battery dies, will those things just fall outta the sky, or what???....been thinking about getting one, but sure would hate to lose several hunnert bucks, if it just falls into a slough, with a dead battery.

I want a real drone with some significant range on it, so I can scout from home.

Just curious...........any rules or regs against that, game wise?

It seems like a usefull tool that i need access to....... fat boy tactics are my favorite.

They will spook if you get low enough!

I bet it would be harassment. They don't fly high enough not not freak a goose out.

Maybe you can find one big enough to dangle a couple of decoys and a few ears of corn underneath it....would that be considered baiting???

I got in touch with our local Wardens, last year, about the legality of mixing drones with hunting. I was informed that it is illegal to hunt in Mississippi with the aid of an aircraft, and that you could also be subject to a fine if you were caught scouting the day before a hunt with one as well. Hope this helps.

Scouting the day before a hunt in an aircraft is illegal? Might want to research that one a little more....

So its illegal to scout ducks via airplane now and hunt the next day? Please do tell, because that happens a lot. We are not Alaska where you cant hunt the day after flying, I don't think. I would like to know the answer to this.
