Hello everyone. I’m a new user here and I’m just starting out with drones. I’ve never flown one before because I thought it was too difficult. But at the age of 45, I’ve finally decided to buy my first drone, the DJI Lito X1. I’m absolutely delighted with it. I’ve joined this forum to learn more and get some advice on flying. I love photography, but until now I’ve only ever taken photos with my mobile. The Lito X1 is now helping me to be more creative. I think I’ll find plenty of information here, as well as people who can help me get started on my new drone adventure. Best wishes to all flying enthusiasts

Hello PavelbyQ,
you have chosen a good drone but be aware, don’t fly it at night til you’ve read up on the Civil Aviation Authority’s do’s and don’ts.
Happy flying!
