#20 Done Selfie

Selfies are here to stay and so what better way to get next-level about it than to do it with a drone…

But if you get arrested for it then you didn’t get the idea from us!

Sure, you can stay inside and play games, or you can get outside and play real games. This is probably even more fun with a few beers!

Not sure if commercial use of drones is legal yet where you live but when it is, this is going to be the future of wedding photography, and let’s be honest, it will make the photographer’s job a bit more fun too.

Even if Kim Kardashian has beefed up security since Paris, they’d want to be pretty damn good to catch your drone!

Simply learn how to use one really well and then force your friends and family to come and witness how awesome you are at it. Tip: you may have to provide free beer.

At last, a real and legit use for a drone that also makes us feel good about ourselves (wait, beer does that). I’m pretty sure that this is what God intended when he made drones.

If your little brother goes missing in the snowy forest, you can join in the hunt for him without having to leave the comfort of your nice, warm room.

You could potentially film sporting events. Let’s stick with the little brother thing. Say he plays some sport you don’t care about on a Saturday morning and your family always make you feel guilty for not being a supportive big brother to look up to, you could use your drone to film him from afar and then show him later, doing a slow-mo when he gets hit in the teeth with the ball.

Pre-program the GPS and allow the drone to do all the hard work, leaving you more time for activities.

Haven’t you always wanted to be able to follow a really fast and/or elusive animal and see what they get up to?

In fact, you could just start a courier service (so long as you do it under the table as it’s almost definitely illegal – especially if it’s illicit drugs).

Say there’s a flood in your city. It’s certainly better to cover it from the air than the water, right? You’d have some cool footage, if nothing else.

Just use it to lift stuff. You’re going to need one that’s powerful enough to be capable of the task at hand but, if it’s right for the job, you could help your parents in the garden to start with….

You and your family are standing on a beach with a beer in hand, loving life and smiling. What could be better than an aerial view of that from out over the ocean?

Get a local business to pay you ca$h money to fly around dragging one of their banners.

Of course, you’re not going to want to be paying attention to this all of the time because you will quite literally have no time to do anything else. However, it doesn’t hurt to have your drone do a lap of the property, or even the block, once or twice.

Tell the guy on the other end of the phone that you don’t require delivery. He’ll be happy he doesn’t have to organize it and you get your pizza home hot and quick, with an added bonus of having used your skill as a drone pilot.

There doesn’t have to be a flood to capture or an animal to chase, there are endless possibilities of what you can film and then you can edit the video later to make an awesome little film. What used to be only for people who could afford a ride in a helicopter is now achievable for anyone with a drone and the capabilities of flying it.

You should probably go over and see her yourself in person but if you’ve got important shit to do (like watch television) you can fly over to her house (and swing by the drug store) and make sure she’s still breathing with a drone.
