Tip-dont sneeze while flying

[wytnyt]

got a p3 from a member here at a great price and finally got a chance to fly her.
first battery it flew great,2nd battery getting the hang of it,charged battery was ready so i went to fly again.
i live in a small city lot,had several cars nearby with usual trees and was really doing good when i turned around to keep an eye on the bird and the sun got me causing me to sneeze,let off the controls but it drifted in the wifes lexus and chipped a prop,,remember guys mums the word

Never heard of that before.

I do live in Scotland though where summer is normally on a Wednesday.

Only sun we see regularly is a newspaper.

That's new to me too. I can just imagine you holding the remote and letting out a hellacious sneeze pushing the sticks all crazy and stuff and bird goes nuts. You should post a video.

so, if you flying with goggles on (which DJI manual says you shouldn't unless you have a spotter), then lifting the goggles to visually land could potentially be dangerous? They should add that in the manual.
