Child Item

Aldi Drone Camera.

This Thurs 99 euro. I have gotten a few electronic bits in Aldi over the years, Trail Camera, Sat Nav etc and have never had any issue with quality. This is not bad but the colour scheme makes it look cheap.

Ah you're getting your knickers in a twist about stupid birds!

You say it was linked to breeding failure, prove it. Exactly, bunch of busy body do gooders trying to spoil people having fun. Stuff the birds, lets fly drones!

Always the case, people start getting old and cant stand it, so they look at young people and do absolutely anything to complain, I cant stand old people, just die already.

Shure, where's the craic in that, Sonny?

You can't tell people what to do with their drones. No matter what bold font you use on an Internet forum.

The fact that the two posters above think this way is so utterly depressing

Please do not do anything silly in your moments of despair, please have a word with these guys and perhaps they can offer some help, and hopefully for the love of God, some fcuking perspective.

Perspective?

I'm not the one who thinks some moron with a toy has a right to disturb the breeding of an endangered species that so many people have put so much work into re-introducing back into Ireland.

Whatever about wildlife don't be using them to spy on the neighbour sun bathing.

But that is wildlife, if it isn't then it soon will be when they spot the drone.

Have you ever considered that nature is the way it is meant to be? If a species becomes endangered then that is the true order of nature, whether that be as a direct result of humans or not. We are a part of nature and our actions or inactions will all be balanced out in the end.

'meant to be' as if there is some kind of 'fate' or plan for the universe?

No I haven't considered that because it's total nonsense

People need to act responsibly to ensure that we leave a nice place for our children to live after we're gone.

Are you one of those arseholes who goes to a scenic area and then leaves all his rubbish behind him ruining it for the next person?

I don't particularly go out of my way to find a "scenic area", I just generally dispose of my rubbish a little bit away from my house, just enough so any potential smells or unsightliness doesn't affect my own personal quality of life It's all the rage with these new standing charges and pay by weight. Birds love it, they can rummage through all the waste and sometimes they get scraps of food to eat, they are scabby mangy scavengers when you think about it. Sure the odd one gets caught up in some plastic and suffers a slow and agonising death, but it is a small price to pay for saving myself a few shillings.

I certainly would not concern myself about a nice place for your children either, once Russia lets off a few nukes it will all become desolate wasteland.

I was at the DOnegal Rally at the weekend, one of the guys had a DJI Phantom 3 there and was scooting away up around the hairpins at Knockalla, it was truly magnificent to watch, the speed of the thing. I was talking to some of the media guys there and we were discussing the licence arrangements and the costs involved. They would never have been allowed to fly over the crowds the way this guy was, but I didn't care, it looked amazing.

My neighbour just shot one of those Aldi drones this morning, it was hovering over the house (on an acre of land in a rural area) and "annoying the bollix off him". So he got the shotgun out and hit it first time.

So far nobody has owned up, but he'll wait till 6 this evening and drop it off at his neighbours house when he gets home from work. I somehow doubt the neighbours son will be around for that.

Doubtful if anybody from your neighbour's will "talk to Joe" then...:pac:. Aw.

Mighty fairytale, you have some imagination.

Think what you want. There's at least 7 or 8 of them around the village and kids have been going mad flying them since the summer break started. They've started racing them around the GAA pitch in the secondary school, up and down the pitch using the goalposts as end markers. Plenty of warnings given out about them and it's the second one that was shot at around here, first to get hit.

I've no issue with them away from people and houses, but when you hover the thing over someone's house twice a day for a few days you can expect some kind of payback.

I know this thread was moved from a forum where the discussion of wildlife was relevant, but this is Bargain Alerts now, so can we please stay on topic and only discuss the actual bargain. Next person off topic or trolling will get a ban.

I've been using a drone on and off for a short while.

Whilst I'd well believe it could annoy birds, I'm pretty sure certain birds (especially larger ones like seagulls etc) wouldn't have any qualms about swiftly knocking your drone out of the sky.

With regards to spying on neighbours, I'd say it's nigh on impossible. Drones are not quiet. They sound like a swarm of bees.

This drone in Aldi is rubbish and not worth the money, it's basically a toy and very light and easy to break or get lost in even slightly windy conditions,. Go on aliexpress and you'll get much better for that money

A good bit more money I know but I just picked up a Parrot AR drone 2 elite edition for £124 sterling as a warehouse deal from Amazon, listed as "used, like new" damaged box. Hasn't been delivered yet so can't say how accurate that is but if there are any problems it will be going straight back.....

daveob007

Just bought an AR drone elite myself for 249 Euro in Harvey Norman, not too much for a beginner in case I crashed It. Happy with it so far

Do-more

Just to confirm that my drone arrived yesterday, nothing to distinguish it from new apart from the box being a bit battered.

Tested it in the garden and all appears to be functioning correctly.

Great saving on the new price.
