Lessons learned on installation:

Read the **** instructions in putting the propellers on. :eek: ALL four of them! I had them on wrong motors and rotation. Two of them threw me off as I couldn't see the white on white rotation arrows marked on the propellers. Kept on leaning one side into the ground. LOL. Dang! :roll:

Finally figured it out! Lessons learned: Read the installation instructions carefully. Take it to a huge field. SMALL backyard is NOT the ideal first flight plan!!! Another Lesson: Don't fly on a windy day! Otherwise, successful first flight with few minor crashes. No broken equipment. Good thing that I had ordered extra propellers (carbon fiber). Hope the quality is good - from China. I suppose the Phantom is made in China too?

Good thing that I had ordered four additional batteries. These get eaten up quick!

Ready for more flights. :D :D
 
:lol: not just me that got the props the wrong way then :lol:

Couldn't work out why it wouldn't take off an just did back flips on the ground :D
