Hello Guys, I am an amateur drone pilot living in New Zealand. I have a DJI phantom 2 vision+, a DJI phantom 3 standard, a DJI phantom 3 pro, and 3 DJI Ryze Tello drones. I love taking photography of my beautiful country's landmarks and features.

Hello Daniel - It's nice to make your acquaintance! I have a Phantom 4+ and a Mavic 3Pro. I like all the DJI machines. They are very tough, and they work exceedingly well. I live in California, and I have been using the machines for fun, and to take pictures of oil fields - which happens to be the business I work in. Have not had the pleasure of visiting your beautiful country. Not sure if it will happen or not. I am also a light airplane pilot, and I just read a wonderful article about spending a week flying around New Zealand, seeing the country. That did tempt me - at least until I saw the price tag. Wishing you great flying!
Hi, @Heron, nice to meet you too. I think DJI drones are the best drones by far in my opinion for their reliable performance and excellent photography. 
I am currently working toward my private pilot's license, which involves a lot of flying over the very beautiful scenery that is in New Zealand. If you do come over here, you sure won't regret it!

I just attended the US Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) annual Airventure in Oshkosh, Wisconsin a few weeks ago. 10,000 airplanes fly in for this event, and 700,000 people attended. There were some pretty unique drones, as well. I put a short video (1 min 40 sec) of my experience there on Facebook. You should be able to find it by searching for my name, Eck Konkel.
I will take your words to heart! If the opportunity presents, I will make the journey.

WOW cool, sounds like it was pretty awesome there at Oshkosh from what you said! My instructor was away for a few weeks as I think he was at the same airshow as you were at! 
We have some cool airshows here in New Zealand, but nothing as big as the Oshkosh airshow! Will check you up on Facebook Have a good day!
