The latest controllers have the lock on the left stick but earlier models don't have it.ccase39 said:On another note my throttle stick never would stick in the down position. I have another Phantom that does it just fine but this one does not seem to do it.
:lol: Ya just had to put that link up huh ! Been watching all them vedios she has for 20 minutes and just had to stop after learning how to peel a banana ! Did find them very informative though.Great Pumpkin said:MicBergsma's video about compass calibration and hand catching is just great - very informative - and he makes everything look as fun and easy as it truly is. But here is a video about how compass calibration is done differently than MicBergsma does it, and one that is equally informative and easy on the eyes to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNif8F2dmqo It is just a a little longer (7 min +).

madsonp said:Avoid flying it into your hand like he did on the video, you're much better off and safer to fly it to a location within reach, let it hover in that location and insure it's stable, then walking up to it and grabbing it, then use the control to shut it down. Many will tell you, never fly it to people or yourself to catch, you let the person or yourself go to it once its in a stable hover.
