I took this photo of the DRV factory from the air with my GoPro Camera and RC quadcopter today. This is in Howe, Indiana.

That is one cool drone (and photos). Looks similar to what a local sheriff's department purchased for Gawd knows what reason, at a cost of $25000 for two of 'em. Bet the OP's cost nowhere near that................

Indeed much less than that, and an intriguing fly-by-wire control system - see link.

No, no delivery or sales problems. The ones outside the fence are owners that came there for service. The others are in the final stages of production, either off to the paint factory (offsite) or finishing up custom orders. You should see some of the other rv manufacturers around there, hundreds & hundreds of rv's waiting for shipment. I believe Drv completes 2 per day. Did you post this on the Drv owners site? www.suitesowners.com


It is on SOITC.

Looks like a few vanished between the 2 camera shots.

Where'd my new Elite Suites go?
Yep, actually drove to all of these places---in the last eight years. Missed Rhode Island and New Jersey.

The sun really never came out today but I was able to fly and get another decent photo of the factory between the fog and rain.

Neat toy! Bet you could put it to good use with a real estate agent.


You have to go thru all sorts of red tape to use these copters commercially.

I think that is my Elite Suites on the left of the front row. Looks like it doesn't have window silks yet.
