    You'll love it. They pretty much fly themselves. Just make sure you have good GPS connection before taking off. Without it, they are damn near impossible to fly without wrecking them. Did you buy the 12 month protection plan?

    I have a cheap drone with no fancy technology I can fly decently well. I'm sure I'll have no issue with this haha. I did not. I bought through Amazon so I could get 5% back. The protection plan was like $200 though from DJI, though it may be worth it.

    you should be fine without it. I did not buy it for my phantom and I have wrecked it hard multiple times, into trees, gravel, hill side and it still works perfectly. very surprised how resilient they are.

    I just looked it up. I'm fairly certain I can buy the protection from DJI on its own.

    I've crashed my cheap one hard a lot and it took next to no damage I was surprised. They make them pretty resilient that's for sure. I think you can order a gimbal "skid plate" for them too. I'm gonna do it haha

    I've been looking at the mavic. It looks awesome. I almost bought one last week but I bought a ucon ems and urd headers instead. Then @oni06 made me buy a carbon fiber barreled riffle action that set me back a week or two.

    What's this about a new carbon fiber barreled rifle action??? Who, what, when, where and how

    My guess would be a proof research barrel and a custom action.

    Let me know when you guys head out. I have a few long range rifles as well.

    Smacked this yote at 440 yards (per range finder) with my AR-10. 26" Stainless bull barrel.

    Is the setup coming already put together or did you just order the parts?

    Yeah Manners has stupid long wait times but damn I love their stocks.

    I think you told me but I forgot. Which stock are you looking at?

    It should be fun. It's been a while since I've had a rifle like this in a readily available caliber. Finding the time to reload has become difficult. If it's not lead free ammo I'd rather just buy it these days
