Hi guys, I'm regular visitor of this forum, but this is first time I decided to write something.. I hope I'll become regular poster in future I'd like to ask for your opinion.. I'm buying new drone, budget is limited to $1000. I already have some fling experience (blade 350 qx3), now I'd like to get something with really good flight time (20+ mintes). Can you suggest me some drone? I've searched web, found some nice lists of quadcopters with good flight time.. but still, I won't buy anything until I read your opinions. Thanks !!
Those lists are not very accurate. In general, 20 minutes is about the most you can expect - the new Phantom 4 claims 25+ but that remains to be seen. You didn't mention what you want to do with your new drone?? If it's video and photography, DJI or Yuneec are the two most popular. Here is a guide https://www.droneflyers.com/2015/11/best-quadcopters-for-2015/
I would go with the Phantom 3 advanced. It has the light bridge system and you can get an extra battery for under your budget.
