I was gifted a Phantom 3 Professional by my step-dad, who found it too complicated for him.  I feel like I won a Ferrari; it's amazing, and I love it, but, if I ever broke it, I could never afford to repair it!

 

Still, I'm loving this quad-rotor!  The features and performance are amazing!  I can't wait to fly it each day.  I have several aerial video 'missions' already planned. (there are some unused train tracks near me that I want to run down at about 10 feet and 25mph!)  Still practicing with all the controls and settings.

First semi-interesting video I took (6th flight):

Congrats on your lottery win! Just be careful with it, don't fly too close to trees or structures, and you should be able to keep it airworthy and virtually free to operate.

Just remember that APV (Aerial Photography/Videography) missions are different than our regular "fly and crash" runs. You'll be distracted by wanting to get the shot, so you need to think of all the variables before you take to the air. You want to visualize your flight path before hand, including camera angles, what you want to be looking at, and any hazards to flight. 

 

Otherwise... have fun!
