New MPP Just Arrived

[PlatinumPilot]

My Mavic Pro Platinum arrived a couple of hours ago. What a beauty! Charging up the batteries and controller as I type. Looking forward to giving her a twirl.

If it is your first drone of this type, fly in beginner mode a few days. Don't be overcautious. Don't fly indoors. Be careful. Be sure you've seen many of the YouTube videos and read the manuals for the drone and the app. Congratulations!!! I fly at least twice a day in my rural area. Great hobby.

Thanks for touching base. Actually, I learned how to fly on the Inspire 1. It has been a while since I've flown, so I'll start out slow until I get back in the groove. While waiting for it to arrive, I did read the manual and watch more videos than I can count about the MP and MPP. Interestingly enough, I do have a few butterflies in the stomach--excited to get back in the air.

You live in a rural area. Wow, do I envy you! The only "rural area" in South Florida is the Everglades, and that's off limits as a National Park. I've been searching Google maps to find some "open spaces" without any airports, heliports, seaplane bases, or AF bases. I will be flying strictly as a 336er, purely pleasure.

The wind finally died down, couldn't fly yesterday due to obligations, now today it's rainy.

Today is snowing for me

Ouch! Michigan has a ways to go for "nice" weather, eh?

Loooong ways. It’s either too cold, windy, rainy, or snowing

Congrats, just took command of mine on Wed and out today doing some initial flights. Really impressed with the amount of noise reduction as compared to my previous P4. I could always hear the P4 before I saw it, today...just the opposite.

Fantastic! People shouldn't be allowed to have this much fun.

Enjoy and fly responsibly.

You also have the Redlands

Haha is such a beauty. I got my Mavic Pro Alpine White. And I love it.
