Ahhhh......the fun of Flying!!!!!!!!!!

[TheGryme]

Got home tonight......there are some beautiful clouds hovering over the local mountains to the South.
It IS a bit windy for me......being an admitted semi- novice.
Oh well.......the **** with it.
I'm FLYING!
Check lists, roger that .......checked batteries all good to go.
Fly!!!!!
O yeah..........fly around.........
I'm now trying to "master" more than one maneuver at a time. You know........go up.......turn right..........go forward...........turn again.
I'm going to make this little drone FLY.
Not the stuttered jumps and hops I do now.
But FLY like I imagine many of you have mastered.
Anyways........back to tonight's flight.
Really windy.......I am getting better at the control I need without the "Smart" mode enabled.
Please don't crash!!!!
Cruise around the house......Cool.......ok in the dog kennels........
OK......Time to come down.
Beautiful.......everything was great.
Great except I neglected to put the GoPro in Camera "RECORD" mode!!!!!!!!!!
****.........no video........
I thought as you get older you're supposed to get smarter too.......?
O Well........I have this weekend to try and get some more practice in.
And maybe to remember to turn the dang camera on.

One of my first flights with my H was without my SD card. My second, I thought I had hit the record button, only to find out I didn't and only hit it when I was thinking I was turning it off. So that one gave me a recording of nothing but my landing and me looking that the camera and swearing when I realized I messed up again.
