Hello, hope everybody is having a great day!
I recently took an interest in learning how to fly drones but I'm totally lost on how to get started and what drone to get. I've done a lot of research online (mostly through Amazon) and I'm not sure what to believe (I almost got scammed while trying to order a drone online because I had no idea what I was doing). I decided to sign up for this forum after lots and lots of frustrating research with practically zero useful answers. For now, I will be flying drones for fun and see if it's something I want to do commercially or not.
I went to a hobby store and they told me to look into companies like Emax and Eachine but it turns out that they sell racing drones. I'm looking for a cheap drone that's beginner-friendly (preferably below $200) and has features like auto-return, 360 degree obstacle avoidance, long flight time and a controller with a screen that doesn't require the use of a smartphone.
Is it true that only some DJI drones can be sold in the US? If so, which models are OK to buy and which ones will not be sold in the US for future sale? Do you guys also recommend Holy Stone for beginners? Does HS have good support and easy access to parts?
Please let me know your thoughts and your experience with getting started in drones! I'm curious to hear your stories!
