having more than 550km or 2million feet and totalling 2 p3p's in a month.
the point i realized is being a great pilot... to know what really segregates experienced pilots from others who just happen to fly is when things go crazy and panic strikes..
having a pre crash prevention plan will certainly give u more uptime than having a crash plan.
1. preflight checklist, A Red Sticker on the remote controller .
2. mayday plan ( emergency return plan and/or emergency landing spots, instrumentation error handling techniques , fuel and RTH altitude , speed, descent rate, battery consumption per km or min inbound and outbound and try to do some interpolation for extra extrapolation )
3. battery optimisation techniques
4. set gain and expo for rc input for smooth landings and take off's.
5. frequently watch your telemetry for difference in inbound and outbound speed, route and position , never fly blindly relying on familiar terrain or just the radar.
