Hello from Leeds, UK!

[welly]

Hi all,

Just bought a Mavic 2 Pro at the start of the week, my first drone so this is all new and exciting for me! Have been out for a couple of test flights - haven't crashed yet! But loving it, and trying to keep my nerves in check when sticking the drone high up in the air. Anyway, will share some videos/photos when I get used to flying and get some nice snaps. If anyone from around my area (Leeds) is up for showing a newbie how to fly this thing, that'd be ace.

Cheers!

Welcome to the forums - a lot of good info here. Also, the search function (magnifying glass icon upper right) is a great way to find answers to many of the questions a "newbie" will have. We were all "newbies" at one point.

Welcome to our Forum, from Hauptmann in Texas USA!

You'll find that flying your Mavic 2 Pro or any DJI quad is so easy. They practically fly themselves. This can lead to overconfidence. Read the manual, and be conservative at first. Practice using the “Find My Drone” App. Chances are you will crash and perhaps lose your bird. Don't wait until that happens to learn how to recover a lost drone.

Lots of good stuff to shoot throughout Yorkshire and the UK. Also, you might consider hacking the FCC mode. It will give you higher signal strength and better protection from lost connection. Whenever you need help, there are over 100,000 of us from around the world to assist you as you gain experience and grow as a pilot and photographer.

Glad to have you as a member!

Ah! It's Jimbo! I was trying to find something vaguely related to drone flying. Best I could come up with, it'll have to do for now!

That's the boy- I had jumbo jet set in my head and then got confused with roger ramjet ? ? ?

It's been a long week... !
