True - but who categories something as a toy? The manufacturer or consumer? Your toy boats were sold as toy boats. The phantom has never been classified as a toy. Your personal opinion is that it is a toy because it is too easy to fly and that others less competent than yourself can fly them.
I wonder if you still double declutch your car, or insist in no engine management system? Are you still using a box brownie, or a DSLR?
Anyone who can afford to use a £1200 quadcopter as a disposable toy has money to waste.
But if I was a professional photographer or surveyor, my quads would be my tools.
But we shouldn't care or be offended if one of us calls it either a toy or a something more professional sounding. It is what it is, and mostly defined by how we as individuals, utilize it.
It makes me feel like a kid whenever I fly, and exercises my imagination. For me, that defines it as a toy.
This seems to have 'blossomed' due possibly, in part, to my description of the Phantom I own as a toy in a couple of threads.
A poster told me to stop calling it that.
That's the only critique I noticed, but I haven't and won't review the thread to see if that's the case.
I love my toy Phantoms.
It's so totally a toy. It serves no real purpose, it's something unnecessary, and its fun, like a toy.
I've got no interest in flying mine. I'm learning how to control and position it so I can use the camera. For me it's a flying tripod.Some people use theirs as toys, and some use them as business equipment. Personally, I've flown my for pleasure about five times out of hundreds of flights, so I consider it mostly a tool.

The horse is still breathing?I stand by my original objection - saying 'I play with my Phantom as a big boys toy' is miles away from saying 'The Phantom is a toy'. GoodnNuff, I believe you have said both of these, maybe paraphrased. I'm only arguing against the second statement. As for the first - play away to your heart's content [emoji452]
