Eric,

Forgot to add this: =   note how the footage is totally precise on pitch and roll axes becau= se of the gimbal, but that pilot input still comes through on yaw axis.

Eric,

7 months ago I got that same Phantom pa= ckage from B&H. You’ll love the GPS mode of flying. An R/C hobbyist in my private life, I’ve flown mostly aircraft (sailplanes = and electrics). As you’ll find from flying helicopters/quadcopter in = simulators like RealFlight, they are a handful!! Orientation is critical an= d getting mixed up on the controls will put you on the ground in pieces super fast.  GPS mode adds a LOT of stabi= lity to your flying and makes it so you can’t get disoriented and sli= p the Phantom into the ground. Home Lock/Course Lock modes offer their adva= ntages too.
