    First (real) flight and lost video

    Not deleting the post, just in case, but seems like having the phone still connected to the cell network won't help. We don't get good cell signal out here, so next time i fly, i will go out in airplane mode.

    First (real) flight and lost video

    After a few batteries worth in Beginner mode ( I had a Phantom 2 so sort of know how to control a drone ) off I went for my first real flight / shoot. We are surrounded ( blighted? ) by windfarms in this area, and personally, i think they look stunning. Gauging the height needed to fly...

    Daren't fly it!

    From a quick search ( sorry folks ) : If you choose precision landing it lifts off to a higher altitude.

    Additional GPS Tracker

    That answers it then. I have a Chinese TKStar - again, cheap, does the job. Will look at the one you have though - good to have alternatives.

    Load lifting?

    I got a Gear 360. Will be putting it below my phantom 2, not the mavic. The mavic looks too cool to have an eyeball.

    Additional GPS Tracker

    hi I had a Phantom 2 ( still have ) - but with the reports of many flyaways, i attached a separate ( cheap / small) GPS tracker to it, so i could ping the tracker and hopefully, it would tell me how far back to china my Phantom had made it before crashing. Fortunately, never had to use it...

    What's availability like now, any UK stock of the Mavic Pro?

    Argos worked for me. 3 days lead time. Mavic now hidden under sofa until I can work out how to the wife. Could only get the mavic though, nowhere has the flymore pack.

    Checking in from South Leicestershire - UK

    It's still in the box - not sure how to tell the wife I have actually got one :). Will fly tomorrow - most probably as a divorcee.
