I'm real close to pulling the trigger on a Q500G as it fits my basic criteria for an AP platform. But with the recent "price wars" with DJI and the Chroma, its making my decision a bit more difficult. Also from all my research it doesn't seem that one brand over another has less fly-aways, random drops from the skies, or other issues. Seems like they are all about the same in this area.
My first question for those who bought the Q500 in any variant, do you have any regrets and wish you bought a Phantom or some other Quad in the same price category (sub $1k based on current pricing)?
If so what regrets?
Would you buy the Q500 again if you were looking today?
Do you feel the slightly larger size of the Q500 compared to the DJI or Chroma is pro/con or not a factor?
I see that even "Best Buy" stores carries the Q500 in all its forms. Is there any pros/cons to buying from Best Buy as opposed to a dedicated LHS? I do like to support my LHS, but I feel my LHS is trying to push me into the higher-end versions of the Quads I'm looking at and don't like that or feel I need the 4k Q500, Chroma, or PJ Professional.
Thanks for any help in finalizing my decision!
