Looking at the other ones you posted, they all look fine- I'd probably buy the pullerbear because their website is funnier...

    Drone use

    We have been opening and maintaining a few view corridors through 90 year old even aged red spruce forest. The longest shot from house to tree is around 2500 feet. Got the drone because it was impossible to identify the trees in the corridor from the ground a half mile away. Drone let's us...

    Is it time to replace the bungee on my Big Shot?
