Newbie saying hi

[Ian222]

Hi all, I just bought a standard phantom 3 and can't wait to get going, bit windy today in Kent UK.

I had a quadcopter for a week and lost it in the fields near me due to high winds and not being able to get it back to me, but caught the bug in that time and went and got a phantom.

Hi Ian, welcome to the boards, just go easy till you get the hang of it. Pissing it down today in the midlands so no flying either lol

Hiya. Fellow uk newbie struggling to get flight time thanks to our great weather! Winchester, Hants way here. Make sure you study hard and don't get cocky. Stick with the beginner mode for some time. Grabbing a flight check list comes in handy too! Have fun!!
