Mississippi just update the law to eliminate the need for a pilots licence. Thinking of getting one myself for personal and work.

We use them to inspect gas lines and mining sites.

You do have to get license but it's not same as a pilot license.

You must have a Federal Part 107 sUAS license to fly commercially.
The test is not easy, but if you study its not too bad.

Anyone utilize them for work other than military?
Professional photographers and videographers have seen huge levels of growth from drone footage.
I'm seeing more real estate agents using them for online listings

They pretty much have all the bases covered. Another example they use is a drone operator who doesn't charge for flying the drone and capturing footage but does charge for the editing of the footage. Again, license required per the FAA.

You can do just about anything with them these days. Just about everyone has one.
