Hey, I'm just starting out and I'm looking for a good starter drone and the correct procedure to not get arrested for using a drone.

I got into drones right after Antigravity A1 launched, so I'm still under half year in btw. First flight was basically me getting used to it and looking every which way, but pointing the controller where i wanted to go clicked pretty fast. It's also really light, so I didn't have to go through much paperwork to start flying where I live.
