Hi John_Pilot welcome to Mavic Pilots

New flyer advice.
Wide open space.
Slow & easy.
Power-lines & trees are evil.
Don't forget to reed the manual

Welcome fellow Norwegian. Where do you live, and plan to fly? I had my Mini for some days now. Easy to fly, and the pics. are OK. And the best: Very easy to bring along for a trip. Hilsen Arne, som flyr mest i Oslo Bærums-området. Lykke til.

I think I forgot to introduce my self. I am also from Norway, flying RC models for many years now. But not so much drones. This little Mini are perfect for me. I have a handicap, and problems with walking. I use an self made electric bike or an electric scooter to move over distance. The small bag is easy to bring along. And now I am training to take good pics. and videos. Lot of fun, in a small package. (Fly more combo). This is where I live, just outside Oslo. (Capital of Norway)

Welcome to our Forum, from the friendly skies of Texas, USA!

You picked a winner in the Mini. Don't be put off by its small size and low price. It's a high performance quad with a great camera.

Be aware that the Mini doesn't handle wind as well as the heavier drones, so be careful flying in high winds. Read the manual, and practice lost drone recovery. Chances are you'll crash and/or lose your Mini. Don't wait until that happens to learn how to recover a lost drone.

Lots of neat stuff to shoot all over Norway and Scandinavia. Whenever you need help, there are over 100,000 of us here to provide guidance as you grow as a pilot and photographer. Just ask!

Glad you've joined us!

Nice picture you posted! The power lines made me a bit nervous though, make sure to avoid them at all times, they are our enemies ?

 

[Arne H.]

Yes. The power lines, and all the trees are some of the enemies to the little flying camera. I am well aware of the power lines. And they are not so close as it looks on the photo.
I this area all the trees make trouble, both for drone pilots and model pilots. The nature are close to Oslo.
