About this site
This domain spent years as the companion site to a popular drone vlog. When it lapsed, the guides and posts that lived here disappeared with it — which was a shame, because people still arrive every day from those old videos looking for exactly that information.
This is an independent revival: a fresh editorial team picked up the site's mission — plain-language drone buying advice — and rebuilt it from scratch. All current articles are newly written by us.
Disclosure, plainly
- Not affiliated: this site is not operated by, endorsed by, or connected to Ed Ricker. If you're looking for his channel, it's on YouTube.
- Affiliate links: outbound shopping links earn the site a commission from the retailer if you buy, at no extra cost to you. We only link to products we'd recommend to a friend starting out.
- Prices: prices and availability live at the retailer; our guides describe classes of product rather than frozen prices for exactly this reason.
Editorial standards
Recommendations are based on published specifications, verified owner feedback, and price history — not on commission size. If two products tie, we link the cheaper one. If a class of product isn't worth buying yet (we're looking at you, sub-$100 "4K" drones), we say so instead of finding a link for it.
