Hi, just bought my first drone ( Breeze)

Hello everyone, I am a rookie to the drone life but I find myself having a huge interest in learning about drones as well learning to be a really good pilot. Any suggestions or opinions along this journey will be greatly appreciated[emoji5]

Welcome to the forum. There is a lot of information regarding the Breeze in this section and I hope you read as much as you can to learn about the do's and don't's. It can be a wild ride in the beginning but rewarding as well. I love this hobby and I stumbled onto Yuneec's products shortly after they were introduced. They make some fine equipment. Make your flying slow and deliberate and take each step carefully as you build your skill level and knowledge. And have fun!!!!

Thank you, I'm nervous but very excited! I want to get flying to perfection but realize it is a slow process there is so much to learn! This forum has helped me already with a tech issue I was having getting drone to link up to the controller and phone but here I got step by step and it worked[emoji5]

 

[Steve Carr]

Outstanding. The breeze is the only Yuneec product to use a phone and an app so it's a bit more challenging.

Keep your initial flights simple and hazard free. Get into a wide open area with very few obstacles like trees. Everybody makes mistakes, especially when learning. I like a big open field for an initial flight. Something we have a surplus of out here on the prairie

Welcome to the hobby. The 1st thing I did was read a lot about the drone and watch a lot of videos. This helped me have a better understanding of the drone and the best settings for beginners and then you can change the setting as you get more familiar with the drone and what it can do. Before my 1st fight i watched videos for 2 weeks, and read a lot. I still read a lot and learn new things other had done and other mistakes people have made. I would watch videos on drone crashes this will teach you enough info to start on things not to do. lol. 2nd fly in very open area for awhile to get used to the drone. I've seen some many crash videos people taking off in the front yard hitting power lines, cars houses ect.

happy flying

Remember to have fun, relax, and take it slow at 1st, watch videos about your drone mostly to learn about it, the other drone videos will help some. remember 8 hours bottle to throttle , means don't drink and drone.

I haven't been able to take BamBam out for days the weather has been a mess..I'm curious do you think he will do okay if it's dark outside but a lit up parking lot? How do these guys do at night time?

 

[Steve Carr]

Night flights work fine if you keep it close. There is usually less wind. But it's impossible to see tree limbs and power wires, so straight up and down works best.
