    Aluminium repair?

    I used it and it works very well! I also had to replace the ribbon cable, at the same time. Tested it the net day and its as good as new!

    Couple of Questions at once

    1) I don't know 2) Not that I am aware of, but I haven't ever flown with prop guards :) 3) With just 10 flights, I would practice more. Try and fly in a very open area, you can see the signal bars and will be able to tell if they start dropping. Once your competence grows with flight, so will...

    Yes, the app tells me where it is, given it's GPS I thought it would be easy to find, but, it just a dense forest floor, and my eye's aren't what they used to be.

    The area it's in is forest and with the old leaves and what not, I can't spot it. I'll go back tomorrow, Not like it's going to fly away :D

    Oh, I'm not offended at all.. my trackimo is grey and I never even thought that it would pop out, just never occurred to me. The mount I bought for it was a 3d print mount that held it in pretty tight. It is ironic though that I used the Litchi app to find her, only to find the trackimo gone...

    I think waypoints have their use, works well for me in areas when the signal gets poor and I can't fly her myself. This wasn't a waypoint fault, this was total pilot error.

    The home owner was super nice about it. When I walked up his driveway with my RC in hand and asked him if he minded if I looked for my drone I just ran into one of his trees, his first response was, "need some help", I said no and he said sure, hope you find it. We have some good folks out here!

    Flying my P3A using Litchi today, having a great time using waypoints and getting great video. I was flying in my neighborhood where the reception for some reason is notoriously bad, but with Litchi, once you start a mission, it will continue until it is complete, which by the way, is an awesome...

    First Flight over water..

    You know, I tried. But for some reason it just wouldn't do it, I think because the lighthouse was so far away, almost a mile to entry point. I was afraid to get it out there and then hit go. Besides, I needed the manual practice, it's the first one I've done.
