Drone Maneuverability

[Ninja3866]

Hi, I am just curious how people fly their drones, I control my drone using my index finger and thumb on the control sticks, I seem to have better control then using just my thumbs, but that's my preference. How does everyone else hold their controllers?

You are now known as a "pincher". Really not many choices in this area. Do what works.

I like to use just my thumbs. I find it easiest to grip the remote controller sticks when using the PhantomKnob.

'Thumb' all the way.
Stock, no appliances (old school?).

Old R/C pilot here. Thumbs forever!

These knobs are great, makes a big difference.

Thumbs

Thumbs for sure. I'm using my fingers for other more advanced functions.

Wow, found the Phantom knobs direct from manufacturer, $5, free shipping, wait and see

Never really noticed what I use.
I just fly.

I use my beer can in one hand, and a joint in the other. Seems to work so far

I just purchased two sets for under $10.00 shipped from the manufacturer. What a great deal!

One handed. Thumb and trigger finger ; )

Only thumbs in my case. I have the left index finger always ready to move left dial (gimball pitch) and my right index finger to deal with exposure (right dial) and buttons

I'm comfortable using thumbs.
