First flight

[Samuel Quinn]

After 4 hours of trying to update all firmware I eventually managed to complete the Rc controller update. For some reason it would not update by any means as shown in tutorials. Instead it updated wirelessly after a lot of messing about.
First flight with two batterys was some buzz. The android app worked perfectly on my Sony Z3 compact phone.
Here too much more flying.

DJI's instructions are missing a lot of important pieces of information. They are accurate, but not detailed enough for my liking. That's why I maintain my own instructions. As I find new issues people are facing, I add that information to my instructions to help others who might run into them too.
