Hi,

After nearly losing my Air at the weekend I wonder if there was a good list of pre-flight checks the more experienced people used. How many satellites aquired before flights etc.

Thanks!

Here you will find an excellent pre-flight check of one of our most experienced pilots: https://forum.dji.com/forum.php? ... &fromuid=260008
For your question concerning satellites, you should wait for 11 or more before take off.

That's really useful (and simple).

Thanks!

Thanks - I saw that earlier. Shame I didn't see that before my fateful flight!

Appreciate the advice.

Here’s another preflight checklist, it’s quite comprehensive but there is a lot in it , you should get plenty from it.

OMG mate - that is seriously thorough - thanks for sharing. Think I'll print that for my personal use too.

It’s just our commercial preflight checklist but a lot of it applicable to hobbyists.

Your welcome no harm in putting the bits that suit you into practice, it soon becomes second nature.

I follow a very strict set up but it's the little things that I can overlook - like gimbal clamps and double checking RTH settings. Thanks again - this is very comprehensive
