I can’t agree enough.. so much to read/view/learn that there’s no time left for flying hahahaaha
Keeping my MPP in immaculate condition.

From me and I’m sure all other first timers A BIG SHOUT OUT to the experienced for sharing their knowledge. I know I look forward to sharing and helping down the track sometime

check out the most comprehensive thread on drone disaster prevention by msinger in general discussions.
Its the best rundown to assist I have seen. Everything you need to know firstup.

G'day mate!

I'm new here too and my best tips are to take it really slowly until you have mastered each movement completely

Watch as many youtube vids as you can get your hands on

Start in beginner mode and stay there for a long time. Its more forgiving

Start in wide open areas well away from trees and other things than will hurt you drone

Don’t let people anywhere near you when you are flying. Kids are a PITA because they don’t take no for an answer. Both of my crashes have been when people approached me wanting to talk. Now I just land before talking to them



Practice and then more practice

Keep your camera movements as smooth as possible. Small actions are always best

Always be aware of bloody kites and eagles. They don’t like drones. Even small swallows will swoop you

Most of all enjoy
