Thanks! Been on Velocidrone a fair bit but was nervous as anything putting this up in the air! It’s an Emax Hawk Pro / Jumper T16 / Fatshark Attitude V5

Only been flying drones since lockdown!

Landing is just a case of getting close to the ground and disarming! Your doing brilliantly

Just goes to show how beneficial some simulator time is if that’s your first flight in rate/acro.
