Anybody tried one of these? Think it could be useful or is my love of tech and toys getting the better of me? About $1000 on eBay.

Noticed that the YouTube guy that garymalmgren recently posted used a drone to good effect at 19 mins in the following video.

Not that but after watching the plumber using an industrial enderscope down our sewage pipe to locate where tree roots had burst in ,sleeve the breakage without digging I bought attached and check the condition of the hull and keel occasionally on an ipad . Trick is however the lead has to be semi rigid or attached to stiff wire. The drone would be an improvement.

Yes I tried a cheapy version of those to look inside my water tanks but couldn't really figure out what I was looking at and found it very hard to maneuver.
