It is. It's an old phantom 3. I'm able to fly it here at home too, I remember yours wouldn't fly here because of the airport.Drone phantom 3 (Large).JPG

We used to have them at work. They were solid and performed well. It was around before the FAA started mandating drone restrictions.

The newer one I have from DJI is a FPV drone with VR goggles. Here's a shot from last year...

Nice! VR goggles would be great, I don't like using my cellphone as a screen. I bought this one from a lady I know who's husband recently passed, he only ran it twice.

The VR goggles take a bit to get accustomed to, but it does beat the screen on the phone or even a tablet.

It has an optional setting which uses sensors in the goggles to steer the camera while the controller steers the drone. You can fly one direction and look around in all directions by moving your head.
