Happy New Year, all.
Just got an Atom (not the 2) for Christmas, and am already having a blast. Guess all those years of flying video games paid off,
Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. Bandera, TX, where I live, is about 30 miles NW of San Antonio, in the Texas Hill Country. I'm a retired Air Force E-6, originally from Arkansas. I'm currently working for General Dynamics - Mission Systems under contract to the Air Force as a Network Engineer.
I've been interested in RC aircraft since I was a boy, but was always afraid my "expensive toy" would nosedive on first flight, so I contented myself with flying video games. With the price of drones becoming so reasonable, I sent my wife a list of three that looked like a good value, and the Atom is what I got. If the "bug" stays with me I will use this drone to build skills, then transition to something more professional, as I'm interested in developing this into a side hustle in retirement.
I look forward to the interactions here.
