A drone while camping

Does any one have a drone they use while camping? If so, what's your choice? What's the limitations, restrictions of use in and or around campgrounds?
I'm dying to have one, but the cost can be prohibitive as are some of the restrictions in various parks.
What's the current thought trend?

  • I’ve been to several CG’s where they prohibit drones to avoid issues with them running into some high dollar motorhomes or other vehicles. Personally if I saw a drone hovering over my site for whatever purpose, I’d probably throw a stick at it.
  • I have a DJI Mavic pro platinum that I keep in the Rv. We are full time and see more and more restrictions as we move around.

    All the Florida State Parks are no fly drone areas.

    Of course Military base campgrounds are a no fly area.(I have been at one for four months now).

    It is getting difficult to find empty accessible fields to fly at too.

    It is sad that several drone owners that follow the law and the rules are getting closed down because of reckless and irresponsible drone operators. But that's the way it seems to go.
