    Tired of hard landing with RTH

    Always hand catch unless I am on pristine (read, clean concrete!!) surface and never had an issue. Just grab the vertical legs and shut down the props. It's really not that hard folks!!! -The Dude.

    Just ordered the Argtek kit

    I just use the flat antennas and point in the general direction of the drone. Get well over 10,000 feet in decent conditions!

    Carmel/Westfield Flyers

    Southeast Indy with a P3S but lots of hours on it! Having a blast and recently took it down to Siesta Key for some over-ocean flying. Would love to meet up and fly somewhere. Maybe a park?
