Ever fly over any marijuana gardens?

Not that I recognized.

Believe it or not, you can learn to fly one in a couple of days. They generally run about !0 to 15 thousand dollars. You can fly them anywhere over unpopulated areas in low wind conditions.

This is a dream for any man good job. I heard those things aren't very responsive to controls, is that just a myth? It seems you followed the river very easily here. Do they get blown around easily? I'm very serious about buying one.

Don't believe everything you hear. They don't like strong winds.
