Hey y'all, newbie from Franklin, TN

[matt215]

Just got the Phantom 4 Pro. I have to admit, this thing scares me. There's a lot going on with that app, and I'm nervous the whole time I'm flying it. How long does it take to get over this?

Hello and welcome neighbor.

I've been flying these "contraptions" over 4 decades and I still get a little nervous on the new ones. I'd say after a hand full of event free flights you'll be doing just fine.

Welcome to Phantom Pilots!

How long does it take to get over this?

The scariest thing is not understanding what the Phantom is doing mid-flight. If you take the time to read (and understand) the Phantom manual, are aware of issues like these and these, and take time to learn how to fly in an open area that's free of all obstacles (to prevent crashing into a nearby obstacle), it'll all be just like riding a bike eventually.

NC here but I frequent Franklin Tn almost weekly for work.

I work in Franklin and live in Nolensville. I'd be glad to help if you have any questions. You'll get used to it shortly and won't feel like that.

Man.. Discovering you guys around the Nashville area maybe I need to start bringing my Phantom 4 on the road with me.
I'm a truck driver out of NC and come to the Nashville area weekly.

I’m one hour out of Nashville.
