Control Practice

Practicing control on a bright, breezy day.

Today was a practice flight. Trying to get better with controlling it on the move as well as while stationary. Flight operations were without incident. No tree entanglements. I had hoped to get the drone out of beginner mode and get some additional altitude, but I wasn't able to make that happen. I did however, get an opportunity to adjust camera settings which will help with photos and videos.

After the flight, I looked through the app and may have determined how to get out of beginner mode. We'll see what happens on the next flight.
