Hi im Jason im 55 and new to drones and recently joined here. Got a mini 2 se in May and had a few disasters initially getting used to it and it crashed a few times but very minor and no damage and it’s still fine. The last incident it resulted in it landing high in a tree in someone’s garden whilst trying out a quick shot. Fortunately a day or so later we had high winds and the home owner called to let me know it had fell out the tree and luckily it landed on soft foliage so it was all intact. After that incident I decided to get the mini 4 pro and the obstacle sensors are a great help . Getting slowly more confident and making progress by watching various videos and learning as I go along. Enjoying the early steps on the journey so far
