    Which quadcopter should I buy? I was planning to buy a  IRIS+ from 3D robotics .Any other alternatives for this.

      Great decision, you can't go wrong with IRIS+ ! Few professors from my university have bought IRIS+, added camera to it and now they are developing program to search for people lost in mountains. First, drone fly over mountain, take pictures, send them to remote server and than program scans all images trying to recognize pople on it. It's very effective, Croatian Mountain Rescue Servie started using it recently. IRIS+ is very very good for further development. It can be founded on DronesGlobe list of top 10 drones under $1000 too.

      Best UAVs under $1000 are suitable for both beginners and professionals. Most of them come with 4K Camera, 20 + minutes of flight time and GPS.
