[QUOTE="MrMcFly, post: 26109, member: 4835"] Welcome! Take Off and Landing Checklists will get you into good 'habits'. Most of my 'procedures' were taken from my Phantom's list. Until I started checklists, lost video was commonplace for me too. Taking things slow is a good idea. I've been flying UAVs for about three years, so my second time out... I got my Spark about 3,300 ft out over a lake when it started losing altitude. 200 ft to about 50 ft.. No idea why, hand was off the left stick. It did respond to left stick input, got it back up to 200, and hit RTH. That was my last flight over water with the Spark...not ever, but at least until the stripe in my Jockey's wash out. Still don't know why the loss in altitude. No errors in the flight log... A mystery. [/QUOTE]
