I don't recall ever seeing a thread on this guy, Mike from Drone Deer Recovery but he's got some pretty interesting videos. Check him out...
In my state, you can fly a drone over a wooded area, but not in order to scout for deer. It makes me wonder how they'd know your intent.99.9% sure that's illegal in my state.

Your cellphone has a camera doesn’t it?In my state, you can fly a drone over a wooded area, but not in order to scout for deer. It makes me wonder how they'd know your intent.
So, a nature photographer can do this, but not a hunter. Which only fuels my belief that we should all dress like nature photographers to get away with various crimes.
Oh yeah. What's stopping someone from using drones to stalk their ex or even kids. There are a lot of sickos out there and Amazon delivers. Look at the uses drones are being put to in Ukraine. Drones are in the infant stages now and controlled by people but pretty soon you could have drones making the decisions when and who to kill based on simple algorithms. it's not far-fetched at all.This technology scares me for how it can be used unethically
I fear you may be right but one thing that will limit drones to some extent is FAA rules about flying and airspace. Also, and it hasn't happened YET, but there will likely be some heinous misuse of them. They are so cheap already and the potential for misuse is so high it's only a matter of time.The only thing keeping this from becoming commonly used for deer scouting is cost of the rig.
Once the price of all the high tech sensors and such goes down, just watch what begins. That's my prediction at least.
I use my phone to mark spots of interest, but I don't trust it to get around. A while back I was using it to navigate, and things just weren't adding up. Then I noticed that according to the phone the sun was setting in the east. I use a dedicated GPS unit but always have a compass with me.I mean who here doesn't use the phone for GPS?.....I think that's kinda cheating too
