Hello from the UK

Hi Drone people,
Just bought a used FC40 as my first foray into this drone thing, I am 53 but thought my 17 year old son would enjoy it........hidden agenda here!! I live near Chester in the UK.
Have had a quick fly in the garden and nearby in a field so far, the drone came with a Phantom 3 advanced camera and gimbal that the guy selling said he was going to fit, bit after a bit of research I don't think this is possible? One thing I have found is that the FC40 app will not work with iOS 11 on my iPhone 7, luckily I have an old iPhone 5 that seems to work ok with the camera, wish the wind and rain would go away so I (and my son [emoji3]) can get out!!!
