Hi Bill. To best answer your question, I'd like to know what you'd be using it for. I've got a DJI Phantom 3 Professional and it's very easy to fly. If you mess up, you simply take your hands off the controls and it brings itself to a hover. If you've lost SA and don't know where it is, you push one button on the remote, and it flies back to where it took off and lands itself. You can override it once you get it back in sight.
There's a bracket on the controller that you attach a cell phone or tablet to (I use a 7" tablet) so you can see what the drone sees through its 4K camera. Also displayed is a GPS map of where the drone is and its altitude and battery status. A lot more telemetry is displayed as well. It warns you when battery capacity gets to 30% so you have time (headwinds notwithstanding) to fly home, and then again when it hits 10%. If you don't override it, the drone will land on its own, wherever it is, when battery capacity hits 10%.
It's a pretty amazing device. The video quality is amazing. It's been replaced with the Phantom 4, and I thinik the Phantom 5 might be released soon (or it already has - I don't keep up on it.) DJI also sells the Mavick, a smaller, more easily deployed drone, but from what I understand, it doesn't have the battery capacity to stay aloft as long.
You could probably find a used Phantom 3 Professional, or a used Phantom 3 Standard for pretty cheap, since all the youngsters want the new drones with all the bells and whistles. The Phantom 3 Standard has an HD camera, but it's not 4K. There are obviously a lot of other drone companies out there, but I don't know much about them.
