I connected the controller and phantom with no problems. Both needed FW upgrades. But everything seems to work ok. But...

Thanks for the feedback. I have been practising on the simulator on the go app. Seems to give a bit of a feel for the controls at least. If it is as easy to control As the sim then I feel a little more confident. I am based in the UK so not sure if I need to register with the CAA which is the...
