I started out with NAZAM. Before i flew my brand new $500 machine, I wanted to know all I could. I had also read about fly aways and wanted to make sure that didn't happen. I was given my Phantom for Christmas while away in Virginia. Meanwhile, back in Houston, my brother-in-law got a Phantom for Christmas. He and his daughter took it out and flew it that day and it went bug **** and flew away. Pretty expensive two hour toy. My fears were increased. So I did a lot of reading when I got home and I was following a "set up" on the Phantom Forum. It said to install the latest NAZA-M V2 Software and hook up your Phantom. Then it walked through the different settings. It was well written, not in the translated Chinese English that the manual was written in.
I have only flown my Phantom a couple of times outdoors. On my first flight I panicked and switched to Failsafe and it came home and landed within 2 feet of the take off position, just like advertised. I am waiting for my GPS tracker to arrive before I try anything real crazy. Call me scared or cautious, either way I don't intend to lose it.
