My home. From Above

Another shot from my new Phantom 4 Pro. Taken from about 250 feet up in the air. There were too many low clouds to go the legal limit of 400 feet so I had to keep it at 250 in order to see anything.

DJI FC6310S
1/120s f/6.3 at 8.8mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

No biggie. I figured it out. At first I didn't think GoPro didn't make a drone but then I thought about it and thought it could be fiesable for them to make one. So I checked, they do, and I had to respond to my comment before I got blasted for it. So all is good. :)

Sorry - I wasn't clear and complete. He bought a GoPro with a compatible drone. I don't recall what kind of drone, but it came it a set with the camera.

I stand corrected. GoPro does make quadcopters. My bad...

Hey Dave, unfortunately the drone doesn't have infrared. Would be a cool feature to have on it though.
And Jim, the Go-Pros are not quadcopters. Unless you plan on buying a cheap quadcopter and mounting a Go-Pro onto it. I would highly suggest something with a gimbal on it. That really makes a difference when flying and turning. Video is always nice and level.

Very nice. One of my friends picked up a Go-Pro; which has me thinking about them.

Very cool. Nice flying. Do you have infrared capability? Would be fun to see both day and night shots using it.

Ohhhhhhhhh, ooooooou....I love this so. Strong vote from me! So much information and well framed...not too much, just right! (also, I feel as though I have lived there myself)

Pool??? I thought that was a oil field collection barrel. Paul

Interesting, you can see the little patch of algae at the bottom of my pool. :)
