Do you mean how frequently do I go out with my drone or how many batteries do I fly/total flight time in a certain period? Someone may go out once in a week and fly four batteries thus flying more than someone who goes out three times a week with one-battery per outing.

How often do you put the drone in the air, not battery specific.

Nice, weather can be a key factor.

You need batteries to put it in the air though - thats my point. You can also 'put it in the air' three or four times on one battery or just the once yet fly for just as long.
  
It may have been better to ask how much flight time a week do people get with their drone - rather than asking if someone flies their drone every single hour of their life...Sleeping would be difficult

I guess not time specific. If you take it back inside then fly later that day, select every few hrs. If you dont, if you fly constantly with multiple batteries, you fly once per day.

I see - well in that case I take off roughly every few days depending on weather and time constraints.

Kinda depends.  I try to get it up every few days, even if it's just a fly around the neighborhood.  In a couple weeks I will be helping support a 5 day bicycle ride.  I expect to be flying enough that I will have a hard time keeping batteries charged

The following long weekend, I will be camping in the middle of nowhere and expect to fly a bunch there as well.  It will be nice to be able to fly without getting WiFi interference within a few hundred yards of home....

All depends how I'm feeling and if I'm busy with my daily stuff. It's one of those things that I'm glad to have to amuse me when I'm in the mood. I rarely go fly just to fly. I also rarely take photos just to take photos. If someone is paying me I pull out the camera or if something interesting catches my attention or an event that interests me.

Same thing with the drone, it's just another camera on a really tall tripod. So my answer would be it's not collecting dust but it's not a daily, weekly, or monthly thing.

I added your choice so hopefully everyone is covered.

When all I had was the Mini, I flew almost every other day. Now that I also have a MA2, it is about once every 1-2 weeks.

I don't have a mini, but I guess a Mavic Pro also counts
Lately I have not flown too much.
Lack of inspiration, lack of new locations to fly and other stuff that takes my spare time.
But I think my average is about 1x per month et least.
