Ferrets are Cool

Does anyone here own an EVO 2 drone?

If so, would you buy it again? How does it fly? How good/adequate are the stills? Is it made of quality material? Does it ground you in No Fly Zones?

I have been using Parrot Anafi's for the last two years for my RE photography, but am tired of them failing for some reason or another. I think I am on my 5th one in that time period and none of the failures were operator error. The only reason I haven't changed is because it doesn't tell me that I CAN'T fly because of supposed No Fly Zones (DJI) and because it is such a great (easy) drone to fly. If the quality was better, I would never consider changing.

they are just too fragile for every day work. I've had two just fall out of the sky and one flyaway on a windy day. I had to replace one when it slipped off my tailgate and landed on the ground from 3 feet and broke a leg.
I absolutely love the way they operate and the controller is the best in the business, but I am hoping that the new Sony drone is a DJI killer. I am trying to keep my last Anafi flying until they release them. If I can't, I will get an Evo 2.
