[AT] Spam> Ralph, Take It Easy! (OT)

The one we have must be junk. Ours is practically impossible to fly. My 
son can do fair with it, but soft landings and hovering are almost 
impossible. The camera is pretty good. I used to have all sorts of RC 
cars as a kid and could drive them with pure precision. I finally gave 
up on the drone before I destroyed it. I think it would be nice to use 
so I could scout my fields when the crops are small.
