Your quadcopter buddy follows you

"The Lily's battery is only good for 20 minutes of flying time, however, and the company says that the battery is non-interchangeable due to the drone's waterproofing measures. Lily also says that the drone lacks object avoidance, according to this YouTube comment thread, so filming yourself in areas with crowded airspace could be dangerous.
Still, it's a neat concept, but there's a while to wait if you're ready to film your own derring-do. The drone is available for pre-order at a discounted $499 until June 15, but it won't start shipping until February 2016. The normal retail price will be $999."



Well... I think having a friend do the stunts while you do the video is better.
