It's only been about 3 months since I got my P3P. I don't know if butterflies will ever leave. Every time I read that someone crashed or someone lost their drone, I think I could be next. I already had a minor crash and glad no serious damage. I swore that would never happen again. I read about people doing their pre checks and plan their missions right but somehow something still goes wrong. I always worry about that just before I launch. But then after I get the bird in the air, instinct takes over and 15 minutes seems like 3 minutes. Sometimes because of too much concentration, I forget to have fun. Sometimes I forget to get those great shots because I'm worrying about something going wrong, looking at battery level, gps status, etc. But one thing that always happens after the bird is back on the ground, especially after a long successful waypoint mission, I'm always amazed what the bird just accomplished. Then I just want to pop that next battery in and do it again. I have to learn not to worry too much and just go and have fun. After all that's what it's all about. Hopefully one day there will be less butterflies. It's good to have some to keep you alert.
