Never mind, just saw it

Inspire?

30 is a lot. I wouldn't risk that, but 15-18 is no problem so far ime. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

Sorry I wasn't more help as to how to functionally hand launch in strong winds, I just think it'll be tricky. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

You shouldn't have any problem launching from the ground. They operate very well in wind. Get the aircraft up a little quicker in an open area. Altitude is your friend if you're worried about swaying into something. I have hand caught, but never hand launched. I'm sure it isn't difficult, but...

Filters are a must. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

I tried... I definitely want some filters. This was with me holding the remote and using just my thumbs on top of each stick. I'm experimenting with using the 'claw' two finger grip to get a little more fluent motion while the RC is on a surface. Thanks a lot for the tip. Sent from my...

Took it up for a brief hover or two before this to get acclimated and make sure all settings were correct. This was my first real flight. Many thanks to everyone for the newbie tips... couldn't have confidently done it without this forum. P3A DRoth2110 Sent from my iPhone using...

I take it out 100-150 meters no problem but I haven't really pushed it. Haven't lost control yet, though. Hopefully these orange props will give me a little more confidence. Do you calibrate it before flights? Hold both sticks down and to the right on a flat surface before taking off? Sent...

I'm going to take it out next chance I get with the other attachments, but I like the way the orange props look while spinning in contrast to the black. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

Threw some orange props on the front to help with orientation when flying a bit further away. Think I'm going to attach two orange front landing skids and two orange front prop guards (for now- they won't be on for long), also to see how that looks when it's way out there. Found four of...
