I'm not familiar with that brand. Does it have built in GPS to help keep it in one place when your hands are off the controls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

low-1 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I picked up a Phantom 4 a couple of weeks ago. Man is it a lot of fun. Getting the hang of flying the thing first before I do any real video or photography with it. I did go for what was likely the last boat ride of the season yesterday and sent it up in the air above the cabin. I'll have to post that later when I get home. I think I might try some indoor flying with it today as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

low-1 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 This is my first one, so I don't really have anything to compare it to, but it's pretty sweet. I've played around with the active track a bit, that's a pretty cool feature. Still have to mess around with the tap to fly and point of interest features. I had it around a mile and a half away and tried out the return-to-home feature. I watched it closely during the auto land, and it set down within 6 inches of where it took off from. I was pretty blown away. I'm going to play around with course lock and att mode today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been getting snow for the last few days. Some of our little lakes are frozen over already. Went out to check the ice on Thursday, it was already a little over an inch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice! you seem to be picking it up quick. You horizon level seems to be off a little. Have you done an IMU calibration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just having fun flying the thing at the moment you can also manually adjust the level when you are flying.

low-1 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Here's a pre-drone video I finally put together. Last year, one of my friend's asked if I was interested in hopping in a helicopter and chasing them around on their dirtbikes. Tough to say no to an offer like that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
