I am so glad I spent months flying my drone manually so when I did get in trouble in auto mode I would know how to take it over and get it back home safely. I have spent a little over a week starting to learn how to program flights here in my office and then take the drone out and fly the programmed preflights. Today I got in trouble cuz of a big tree.

A definite ooopps there. You saved that drone in the nick of time or the tree would have devoured it for lunch.
