New bee question about scenery

I try to start this hobby. I haven't bought my heli yet. I bought NeXt sim to practice before I am going to buy the heli. (My aim is OMPHOBBY M2 EVO.)

I understand that NeXt can help to do custom scenery but you need 16k photos which I don't have. I only have a Ricoh Theta 360 camera which is I think 4K only. Well it doesn't matter. My backyard has only 15mx15m obstacle free space for me to play. I just wonder how can I limit the downloaded Custom Scenery to this size so that I can comfortably practise my future heli?

Hi,

15m sounds like a lot, but can be a very limiting range for an M2. I suggest doing the first flights on a larger area without buildings and trees.

The Custom Scenery option does not have colliders. But I think I can add a sizing option to adjust width, height, length and pilot position in one of the next updates.

In the meantime you can use the sports hall:
- Open the menu with Esc
- Go to the Scenery tab and click Download Sceneries
-> On the left you can see the installed scenery and on the right the downloadable scenery
- Click there on �Sports Hall Bargtheheide� to install it

You can also use a regular field and one of the training options:
- Select a regular field
- Open the menu with Esc and go to the Training tab
- Scroll down to the �Traffic Cone� option and select �Square�.
-> then you can adjust the size and distance to the pilot
Of course, you can also fly outside the box, but you can also activate the �Marking� training option (also located in the �Training� tab).

All the best,
Klaus

All the best,
