I'm a seasoned pilot -- at least when it comes to crashing, and using my X8SW as a hedge trimmer. How many hours does it take before one gets that brave?
I love watching that medium range smooth flying with nice scenery. Much better than a bunch of flips and rolls that make my stomach queasy just watching
It's nerve racking in the beginning but it gets better over time. Just need to trust your gear, know where you are in relation to your quad, and remember your altitude and you're all good. Nice first water flight!
