Im very new to these! I actually purchased my Mavic on Amazon by mistake..... I had a bunch of stuff, probably worthless but i dont know any better, in a wish list and wanted to see how much a few things would actually cost so i added them to my cart and then closed the app. I do mess with 1/5th scale buggies and hve a few road/carpet cars so I wanted to purchase from my local hobby shop. Well a week or so later i added a couple things to my cart, clicked the buy and just hammered down the buttons..... well, apprently i must have been looking at new bedding pillows, pictures, and yes, my drone wish list.... well where im working i have terrible service and really wasnt paying to much attention until i got to my camper and after the internet finished being installed, i saw a bunch of shipping confirmation emails..... I kept it and it took me three days to figure out how to get everything working as far as calibrating and even flight! I have now flown a total of ten flights and actually enjoying this thing! Id like to apologize in advance for what may seem to be " dumb" questions, but i seriously have no idea what im doing other than what ive watched on youtube.

Thanks again for your time and sorry for the long senseless post! im just excited!

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.
