Another new pilot from Colorado and the proud owner of a Mavic 2 Pro checking in. My wife and I are fortunate to live on 42 acres of Colorado forest between Peyton and Elbert Colorado, so there is lots of room to fly, albeit more challenging given the forestation.
This is my first drone and it took maybe 60 seconds into my first flight before I was *hooked*!!! I was looking for a new and interactive hobby and I've found it. My wife and I are avid outdoor recreationists and it's going to be a lot of fun making video memories with the aerial camera.
I'm very glad I bought the prop guards due to all of the trees on our land. The obstacle avoidance system is good but it clearly cannot detect everything, hence during my first Close Encounter of the Conifer Kind a few pine needles got a haircut, but that's it; the prop guards did their job.
Happy New Year and Happy Flying to all.
