Fedex came by the house today with a new 2 pro zoom! Pretty excited about getting this in the air. Batteries charged, firmware updated (all batteries also), sensors calibrated, buttons set, and initial camera settings set. Tomorrow calibrate compass, good GPS, preflight, and go flight!!!

First, what I'll call a real drone for me. Flew a couple of cheap versions for a while and have 20 years of R/C 3D helicopter experience. I've been through the manual several times and watched several online tutorials before it arrived. Wish me happy landings!

Your RC experience should keep the drone safe.  I think a lot of lost drones are from when the autopilot runs into problems, goes into ATTI, and hands all control to the pilot.  It often turns out there isn't a pilot on the controls but instead someone just learning to control an RC aircraft.

Don't use RTH to land or return.  Keep RTH as a failsafe for when everything goes wrong.  Millions of ways RTH can mess up and has.

Hi Guys, thanks for all the welcomes and well wishes! It looks like a friendly and knowledgeable group resides here.

The weather today is cloudy, rainy, and a little windy. There must be some kind of new drone curse.

Thanks again,
Keith
