I don't own a draganflyer 3, but I have seen one fly, and I have owned a Vectron. I saw it fly at a R/C trade show (I fly R/C planes).
The Vectron has an extremely limited range, is always tetherd, and doesn't respond very well to my inputs. I got bored of it quick, but my 7-yr-old son is enjoying it. The Vectron and Draganflyer are not even comparable.
The people at the booth allowed many people try it out, and they crashed a few times, but didn't break anything. It is like flying a gas helicopter (without the added dimension pitch control can offer), but you can fly it inside, it always works, no maintenance, and you can crash into things and not break it. Seems like a good way to get into R/C helicopters.
I don't have any video making equipment, but being able to see what the helicopter sees on a TV would be pretty cool.
I don't think it would work with a X10 camera though...sorry guys.
