From the map, it looks like I'm the only EVO pilot on the board in this area. I know that's not true because I've seen other sites with EVO pilots from here.
Anyway, I had a cheap Potensic T35 that I flew for about 50 hours to learn the ropes, the rules, and not fear crashing too much. I just got my EVO a few days ago and It's a world of difference., The gimbal, the camera, the flight controls, the battery, all so much better. I'm hoping for some nice weather to start making some vids in all the areas I can get to and fly safely/legally.

Welcome to the Forum. I think you will enjoy your membership. There are many other members happy to provide assistance for any issues you may have, and those that may need information you bring. A lot of good information is already stored in existing threads.

Couple easy things:
1.) The search Icon is your friend. It's the magnifying glass near the upper right of the screen when you scroll all the way up. It can find many answers you will never find by yourself.
2.) Be aware that you won't always get a quick response. There are times when many other members are on line, and sometimes only a few. A response may not show up until the right person sees it.
3.) Be aware the forum is Global. If you are exchanging with a member on the other side of the world, response can get delayed and out of sequence due to a difference in local time.
4.) Although the Forum is global, the language is English. It is customary to translate other languages to English. Many members also include the original language post to help alleviate translation errors.
5.) Review the forum rules (on the bottom right). There are not too many, but it is important they are followed to keep the Forum a useful and happy place for everyone.

NO, you’re not the only one from DFW. I’m in N Dallas and been flying since around 2012, back when you had to build your own quad copter, now I buy them off the shelf. I’m currently waiting for the Evo II Pro to be released. Been to McKinney a bunch of times and think there might be some great places to fly up there.
