Very nice review! I was driving myself crazy trying to complete the vertical calibration. The book appears to instruct you to turn the drone in a steering wheel motion. Here you show that vertical calibration is a forward rolling motion. I am thankful that people like you know exactly how to make quality instructional videos where you detail everything and can be heard perfectly. Thank you! Keep making the quality videos you do so well.

If not calibrated...it will be difficult to fly....make sure the blue light is solid on the remote... sometimes it might take a long time. To get the solid light. But I fly mine in my neighborhood...love recording cars from above....on July 4 it was fun to fly...until they started trying to hit it... they never hit iT I simply went higher....I call mine the trollicopter.

Looks like you had some kind of interference with the hat cam, but it doesn't detract from the cool video. Sorry I haven't been around for a while, I've had so many jobs to do, and still do lol.

The vertical calibration is actually done the way it was demonstrated here. There are a few other instructions in the book that are not clear as well.

First off thanks for a super useful and informative video. Second of all, forgive my lack of knowledge on basic things. I'm considering this as my first ever drone purchase after a few hours research. Is the gimble swappable? I see that the camera is removable. Does this mean I could swap it out for a higher quality camera like a GoPro or similar? Or is the removal purely to help reduce weight/increase flight time.

Yet the drone just continues to flash lights slowly around in a clockwise rotation green in from red in back. Never ever connect what do you do to fix this? Please help thank you.
