Houston Newbie Checking In

Decided I can't spend time at home without a new toy. Very happy to welcome the MA2. Have it about 2 weeks and gaining experience. As with others, trying to feel comfortable with the drone at 400ft+. Trying to feel comfortable - have "roll" disabled and slowly adapting to becoming comfortable with reverse orientation when flying the drone towards me (map view and aircraft orientation indicator certainly help).

Camera is awesome. See pic of Santa Fe, NM sunset.

Will be lurking...

Welcome to the forums - nice photo - a lot of good info here. So, take a look around and hope you enjoy some of the fine photography and information posted by the members.

Also, if you haven't done so yet, consider getting the AirMap and KittyHawk apps. I also suggest this Visualize it: See FAA UAS Data on a Map

Here are some things to help you get started with your Mavic Air 2:

• The current Mavic Air 2 manual can be downloaded here (it doesn't come in the box). Other important documents can be found on the Mavic Air 2 downloads page.
  
  
• Check out this getting started guide for some tips not found in the Mavic Air 2 manual.
  
  
• This video covers all the basics of the Mavic Air 2.
  
  
• Your drone batteries will last longer if you use and maintain them like this.
  
  
• Practice flying outdoors in a wide open location that's free of all obstacles. Don't attempt to fly inside your house or in other confined locations.
  
  
• The drone records flight data each time you fly. You can decrypt and view those flight logs with these tools.
  
  
• Check out MavicHelp.com for commonly used accessories you might need.
