[QUOTE="Geoff, post: 41721, member: 7961"] At this point mostly yard flyer getting comfortable with the controls & how the spark reacts to them, particularly getting used to the opposite right/left reactions when is returning to you. There is Duke park on Lake Keowee that has a ball field & I will be going there to practice more long range flights. The spark is so small it is easy to lose sight of it, which is what happened. I was slow on the uptake to look at my iphone to see its orientation, but fortunately it is till around to fly again-it was a stressful few minutes. You can tell it was designed by engineers & not by those with any aviation experience (I flew airplanes for a living), as in any plane you pull back on the yoke to go up-just the opposite with the spark. All part of the fun learning experience. I have joined a local drone club, it is only about 10 members but there is a wealth of information that comes from those more experienced. Good luck, maybe we can get some of us that are fairly local to meet up somewhere. [/QUOTE]
