Starting to Program My Own Drone

Hi All,

I am a newbie at the drones area, and wonder how to start.

My main goal is to have an autonomous drone which I can program its tracks.

My question is how to start?

I thought of first buying a simple drone and start flying it just to understand how drones fly and how to work with them.

Next I would like to program the drone to fly autonomously.

So I wonder what is the first step? Is there a commercial drone which I can buy and easily "hack" in order to write my own program? I thought of the Parrot drone: Is has a Linux OS, so looks like I can just write programs into it.

Or maybe everything I have just written is irrelevant and I need to do everything myself, so what parts should I buy?

Thanks for the guidance.
