[QUOTE="Northwood Mediaworks, post: 91765, member: 6411"] Welcome. Best advice is to read about all the fails, best way to avoid them yourself. Also, watch as many tutorials as you possibly can on YouTube. Start in a very clear open space, use beginner mode at least for the very first flight... Be sure to form a habit of pre-flight checks... there are lots of great checklist examples to be found here and elswhere. Check your IMU and Compass sensors every time before take off... avoid concrete which may contain rebar (metal rods). Install UAV Forcast app... check the wind profile and forecast before every flight at each location. Pay special attention to videos where guys are flying over water, if you get down too close, you may have a sad experience. And I have flown in -10 over snow, the battery will drain quite a bit faster, and you need to keep the spares warm next to your body if you plan to do the winter thing. Cheers from north eastern Ontario. [/QUOTE]
