I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene - Location # 371
Land owner permission requirements unknown.
This place is not only to fly around abandoned sea fort. When river retreats it’s even possible to walk to it too. Also a lot of ships passing.
There’s free parking nearby where possible to leave your car and it will take you around 2-5 minute to walk to the river bank.

I went here the other weekend and it was a great place to fly!

I agree. I was flying here a few weeks ago. I was tracking low along the path to the silo and my Mavic pro repeatedly switched to Atti mode.
Plenty of space to deal with it though.
Might be a lot of metal under those sands maybe?
We went down there a few weeks ago, Prospector 1 drilling platform was there. I think its been joined by anothr one now. Will be going back in a few weeks.
Nice video by the way.

I’d love to try out the helipad on one of those.
I mean … what could possibly go wrong? … other than it refuses to take off again.
We said exactley the same thing.

My original “helipad” desire was the one on top of The Needles Lighthouse.
… if it’s not busy.

One of my places to meet my brother and fly… it’s a great location.

Let me know if you head to the Needles … one of us with a long line and a hook on our drone to retrieve the other drone from refusing to take-off from the helipad.
Sounds a bit risky, but fun
