Just ordered my first drone the other day, the Phantom 3 SE! I cannot wait to use it! Haven't received shipping info but I've read it take a couple days. I already have a list of places I plan on taking it to get some cool shots!

Congrats and all the best. You have much to look forward to. As you already know. ;-)

Perhaps you can spend this waiting time to RTFM!! (Read The Flight Manual) become familiar with your drone, before it arrives. The PDF manuals are on the download page.


Good luck. Enjoy the journey.

I have been watching every unboxing video I can find but I think that is a very good idea! Thank you for the advice!

WIN!  Pay very close attention to power lines and keep in visual contact at all times.  Regardless of how much you see with the camera... it can be a surprisingly small view.

And one of the most expensive, if you fail to RTFM!! ;-)

The PDF manuals are your new best friend...

RHP is absolutely correct, most issues and problems can be avoided or resolved by reading and understanding the manual.  If you have trouble reviewing it, come here and plenty of smart folks will assist.  Also, be aware not everything is in the manual either, you need to review here in the forum, watch YouTube, watch all the tutorial vids, etc.
Take it slow and have fun

The easiest thing to do is crash.

Reading the manual, makes it more fun.... Ha

Lots of BANG for your buck there.... Lots to learn. But she's a gentle bird. Keep your speeds low, watch the motor mount screw areas.

Did you het your new drone, I've had mine 5 days and only had the chance to fly it once due to the weather and that was only a 15m test flight.
