New Pilot from Central Valley, CA

[GovGeek]

I'm hooked!

My wife is awesome, a few days ago she asks "Which drone have you been interested in?" and I tell her "the DJI Mavic Pro (w/Fly more bundle ) of course!" A few minutes later she says, done. Amazon should have it here a day after your birthday (9/3). JIMP, WOOHOO!

Of course, after pouring over this forum and tens of hours of YouTube videos learning about the how-to's and what gear everyone likes, I hit up Amazon preemptively buying extra batteries, chargers, lens tints, etc.

As expected there was a firmware update, and then diagnosing why the MP took out my home 2.4GHz wifi anytime it was on in the house. Charged all the batteries on my new simultaneous charger, and then did a pre-flight in the driveway to test everything before heading to a large wide-open park. Yesterday was our first flight lasting just over an hour of total flight time w/4 batteries!

My first VERY amateur video from Hunter's (AKA. Mavic Pro) 1st flight! (ignore the music, it's the only free one that long, LOL.)
