Great flying today! (still a newbie)

I was out at the farm and very hot about 17 mph winds. Phantom3 S performed like a champ. I flew it out till I lost sight somewhere over my middle pasture (100 acres total) still had good signal but used return to home and it landed 6 ft from take off spot. I flew some more playing with the video and after watching playback learned a few things. Turn the drone slowly while hovering at height, and it will get a better shot! lol...rookie mistake...My Samsung s6 phone does not display well in bright light and I did have a cover over phone but had a hard time seeing the display clearly. I will be getting a bigger tablet. Sux having old eyes I guess. I still have a lot to learn but this drone is going to make me look good learning! movies to large to download still trying to get movie editor figured out to reduce the clips.

The first couple of videos I shot on my P3S, I panned so fast, it almost made me dizzy watching it. First video lesson we all learn. Flying rural is a pleasure as you seldom have to worry about interference, hidden obstacles (power lines), people, etc. Get adventurous small steps at a time and you will keep your Phantom flying and gain lots of enjoyment. Good flying.
