DJI Phantom 4 For Rent

So I am looking at renting a phantom 4 for this trip. Does anyone have any experience with using these? I think it would be fun to have one of these Record the trip. If anyone would like to chip in for the rental I will ensure that you good video time as well. Looks like it will be around $800 for two of them, Oh and I WIL BE PURCHASING TO COVERAGE PLAN!!!!

You're going to have to enlighten me on what a phantom 4 is.

I had a feeling, but was confused since you can buy one for a lot less than that.

Yeah, I just saw online you can by a new one for 1400 or one model year older for $400. Candidly, I don't feel the need for it, but that's just me.

It would definitely be cool for a group shot, but it'd be pretty difficult to use on the trails.

If I can convince my wife to let me son skip school those 2 days he could fly them. He has a lot of experience with r/c planes and drones.
 
The cool thing about this drone is it had a tracking system. You lock on a target set distance and height and go. Has forward and under collision avoidance system. 30 min flight time which will get a lot of video.
