I am looking to buy a drone and am trying to get the best one possible for under $300. Y'all have any suggestions?

Used Phantom 3 Standard if you can find one for that cheap.

If you want to do photography go with DJI, if you want to do tricks, flips and haul arse check out Traxxas Aton, not fpv but really fun to fly.

DJI is probably what I'll be looking to buy. Some company should make one with extended range and batteries for exploration type stuff.

DJI already does, but those options are expensive.

Range is really not that important for most companies though, because legally you can't fly outside of visual distance.

I had a Hubsan H501c that was an absolute blast to fly. The 501s model has the fpv transmitter so you can see where you're flying. Great range, GPS, return to home, etc. The 501c was less than 200 and I believe the 501s is around 250 or so.

Used Phantom 3 standard, or go to dronenerds.com and you can get a refurbished one for $399.

I got a used 3 standard with carrying case and extra battery for $350.
