Beautiful scenery.

Did you let your son have a go at the controls or did you hog it like a big kid?:D

you have to be 18 to fly it and at £800-£1000 plus the potential for harm no he's not allowed to fly it, he does take a keep interest and suggest things like fitting nerf guns to it haha

he's got a little rc helicopter that he flies in the house,

both pilot error

first guy didn't have dynamic home point turned on so it lost connection and returned to the take off point he was very lucky he posted the video on the forums manuel saved it, but looking at his yacht I'm sure he could afford another one

second guy goes into details why his crashed

i followed my usual pre flight check list and if it goes down it goes down, might get run over tomorrow who knows :) fingers crossed though

99% are pilot error Giles even though they say its a fault with the quadcopter
