    Recovery from near Disaster

    I thought I would share a recent experience in hopes that if any of you have a similar experience you may be able to recover from it. I have had my Phantom 4 about two months and have flown around 10 hours. I feel pretty confident in my abilities, but realize I have much more to learn. Three...
