What is a good one to buy, and how far is the range on them? I'm looking to spend around $1200. 2017 and 2018 Turkey contest champs! Back to Back!! It's a damn disease is what it is !

I should have asked them the price but didn't think about it. The motorcycle guys bring their personal drones that are about $2,000. I would like to have one to play with! . .
