Today’s episode should be helpful for anyone who’s afraid to fly their drone. After all, many drone pilots have a fear of flying. Drones are expensive and no one wants to crash a costly piece of equipment they spent so much money on.
Scott from North Carolina calls in to ask if we have any advice on getting over the fear of flying. We talk about ways to build confidence, to let go of your fears and to accept failure. If you’re afraid to fly your drone, it will take some time to truly get over your fear of flying. With patience and practice, however, you’ll learn to not be afraid of flying your drone.
Thanks for a great question, Scott! Fly safe!
