Can you help us clean up the Locations on Drone Scene?

Happy to help with Yorkshire if you still need people.
(I may need a little guidance on what would be considered not worth keeping on the site)

Sorry for late reply.
Happy to help also.
As long as instructions on what needed are easy to understand :slight_smile:

Sorry I’m a bit late to the party but I’m happy to join the northwest group if it helps share the load. I understand if I’ve missed the boat!

Anything boring. Like if someone put up a Sainsburys Car park as a good place to fly. It might be good on a day when no one is there for practising, but apart from practice it offers nothing useful. i would ask for that to be removed. Also the plethora of churches that people added due to some recent challenge. :wink:

Trouble is, “boring” is somewhat subjective and we’re not all going to have the same idea about that. :slight_smile:

Churches are often very picturesque, and a favourite for flying cameras, but clearly not everyone’s cup of tea. :laughing:

A Sainsbury’s car park, with the right features, might be a decent place for an FPV session. At least the FPV pin should make it clear who the intended ‘customer’ is.

I suspect we’re going to need guidance from a higher authority/tastemaker on this. :thinking:

Benefit is that DS has a filter to drop that entire category if it’s not in your interest :blush:

UPDATE

We’ve done a small trial test run with the London region!

Thanks to @Gham for doing half of London, we’re just waiting for @jedpause to complete his half (nudge nudge) :wink:

I’ve added my name to a bunch of the regions that had very high numbers to try and reduce the load.

If you’ve not yet volunteered and would like to pitch in, please have a look at your region below and see what the numbers look like, it’s a safe bet that every region still needs some assistance currently :blush:

We’ll probably give it another couple of days for any last minute it help, then we’ll be in touch with everyone either later this week or early next week.

There was an email?

All grey arrows emails get dumped in a folder and ignored. I would hope anything important is sent to me by pm.

Some people have notifications from the forum sent to them via email, and I imagine this is what’s being referred to here. It’s technically possible (through receiving and replying to GADC emails) to have full discussions without ever visiting the site - though I’m not sure I’d want to…

Looking at the numbers, I’m really glad I don’t live in London…

Thank you once again to everyone who has volunteered to help :bowing_man:t2:

We’re just dividing up the regions and we’ll be in touch with you directly over the coming days :smiley:

Closing this thread now - thanks again :clap:t2:
