This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What drone is OP getting that it's only $35? I don't think I've seen them from anything less than about $200 and a good one is about $500 to $700

kamicaze drones are pretty cheap

Analog fpv drone is at least €150 when produced on a mass scale. Parts alone.

This is nowhere near 35 bucks cheap.

of course it's not that cheap, but still pretty cheap

Yes, precisely right. When compared to military precission weapons. That start at tens of thousands.

And I gave as real of a number as possible, so there are no idiots thinking an fpv drone costs 35 bucks. Even if it has to fly once.
