    First flight, damn near lost a finger

    I'm not experienced enough to give you a good review, but it's the same as the Wingsland Minivet, just rebadged. There are plenty of reviews of that one on Youtube. Documentation is hard to follow for me. Just too much to digest all at one time, but probably will be good after the learning curve.

    Can you explain "P Mode"? Is that specific to this model? I notice mine has something called "easy" mode, but haven't flowed it again yet.

    Anybody here offering Ariel Photography services?

    Thanks. Yea I tried to post the link but this forum requires me to have a few more posts before I can paste a link. Thanks. That's great news. So... can you explain how the connection to the headset is set up? Does the headset just recognize the 5.8GHz signal and work, or do I have to map...

    Question about using VR Headsets

    Yes, that's the link, but the one I bought is blue. The one in the video looks the same other than the color. Is the red one the same drone with a different brand name?
