    The Phantom 3 Has arrived

    Another got to have....

    Well, you start out with 4 big fans and duct-tape the bases together. You probably don't want oscillating fans....

    Spark calibration

    Nope. They recommend you calibrate it the first time, and any time you have traveled a long distance. I just do it when the GO4 ap says to. That's only twice, and the second time I'm not sure I needed to.

    Retrieving An Aircraft From A Tree

    Unrelated: Years ago, we lived about 1/2 a mile away from our nearest neighbor, "Miss Martha." She was 200 years old and lived in the house she was born in. (Not a VERY big exaggeration.)

    Drone blades

    Disoriented Dummy can't find his Drone...

    It was following me with active track. Worried about the branches on the right, I moved the drone left. Then I heard it pruning branches on the left, and took quite a while to find it. Of course, it was looking straight at me just a few feet away.
