Parrot's drones are junk, so drop that one.

Of the two left, the DJI Phantom is the most proven one now on it's 4th generation. DJI Lightbridge is fairly amazing, real-time video feed and telemetry with the same several-KM distance as the control link.

If I had the money, I'd get a Phantom 4 Pro and a Lightbridge receiver. It can do around 4 miles of real-time video transmission.

Leaning towards the Mavic Pro , the size of it makes it really nice for traveling, plus these DJI Goggles looks like a lot of fun

Ended up getting a Mavic Pro, it's a dream to fly, they released pricing for the DJI Googles $499 , it's 1080p in close range and 720p long-range, 85 degrees FOV, wireless connectivity with Mavic and via HDMI port with Phantom and Inspire. Can be connected to other stuff as a VR headset. Flying in fixed wing mode allows you to control flight direction by rotating your head/looking where you want to fly. The gimbal mimics your head's movement, allowing you "look around" while flying.
