I Retired in the fall of 2014. I had flown a Blade QX 350 prior to the Phantom. I found the Blade difficult to start, and had trouble calibrating it so it was difficult to fly. I purchased a Phantom 2 Vision + in Feb and haven't looked back. They are so easy to fly, its just fun.
Like I said, retired, got bored now I am doing pictures for a few realestate companys and occasionally a farm/ranch overhead pictures so it keeps me busy.
