Where in NL are you? Anywhere near 038?

You are not accidentally trying to fly with WiFi are you?

nice one.....I click "ok" when it says it will return to home when I should click "cancel"....every time! I feel stupid every time too

Happy with my Mavic Pro....it's got more than I know how to use so don't need anything new yet

I also started with a rc heli....it didn’t even last 5 seconds. Those were costly but also valuable seconds. I can understand fully well how you can crash the things, even in beginner mode. Having the skills is important but knowing when you don’t have the skills might even be more important!

Flew mine indoors once(!). I raised it a few inches from the kitchen table and wanted to set it down again, but by then it had moved backwards a little bit and wasn’t above the table anymore so I backed it up a little more to set it down on the floor. That’s when the obstacle recognition kicked...

I've bought my mavic little over a month ago and I've surprised myself by only crashing it once (trying to fly indoors). I'd like to put in more flying hours but then...

I can imagine that air grabs are something you'd want to practice alone and by yourself. There are those that say you shouldn't even do them at all. But I've found it way easier than fumbling around trying to get your drone to land in a small circle like the one you showed. Air take-offs are a...

I just ‘grab’ it from the air when there’s no safe landing place. Works like a charm and with people around it makes my mavic look like a well-trained puppy

VERY carefully! Cut my finger a little while doing it but there is a little room if your fingers are long enough. Didn’t know about the turning on it’s side trick though...

I once lost connection and the drone immediately went to the RTH point, descended neatly in the narrow 20ft of space between the trees (I was so scared!) but kept hovering at 8ft with no intention of landing. Couldn’t reconnect so I was faced with waiting till the battery was drained or...
