Hello all

[Bop]

A few weeks ago I purchased a Mini for my wife's birthday who wanted a drone. I was not so keen of the idea but did some research and decided the mini was a good starter. After a few weeks we were so impressed with it that we ended up purchasing a mavic zoom 2!
Here we are trying to learn, learn, learn.

Hello from the Hoosier Heartland Bop.

This hobby is a little addictive.

I've had a Spark for over three years and recently purchased a MA2.

You'll find that both the Mini and the M2Z almost flies itself. This can lead to overconfidence. Try to be conservative at first, and expand your horizons gradually. The Mini, at only 249 grams, doesn't handle wind as well as the heavier drones do. On windy days--you get those anywhere--, it's best to fly the Mini so that you have a tail wind on the way back.
Read your manuals, and practice using "Find My Drone". Chances are you'll crash and perhaps lose your drone. Don't wait 'til that happens to try to learn under stress in less than ideal conditions. We have many several fellow Americans among our membership, and over 120,000 more from around the world who will help you learn your new hobby. Ask for help when you need it. Share your work when you can!

Glad you've joined us!
