Put us down, 1030 means not too early a start, want us to bring hoops for FPVing thru?

You can bring them Suzanne. I’m only flying a Mini 3 Pro ( hope you have extra large hoops ) :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

If I can get the diy hoops back from Sparky then they are big enough, but low… the other ones are about 2’ round, so doable easily enough, just take your time

All being well I hope to be there.
Could someone post a what three words for car park and meeting point as it isn’t an area I know too well?

We are 50/50 it is always the distace from the car park that normally does it and now as @FoleyMrs decided to kick something and drop things on her foot and appears to have broken her toe on top of the usual limitations… We will let you know closer to the day. Would like to try and get there though.

I’m in Derby and would be up for this. 20-21 July, times and family commitments notwithstanding!

I’ve flown around Racecourse Park in Chaddesden and Allestree Park without a word being said though that could be more by luck than judgement.

I don’t understand the bees in council bonnets and the Luddite mentality around drones in these open spaces especially while far less consideration is shown by noisy L plate motorbike users round my way.

Will try to make it, I’ve not flown my AVATA in anger yet and it’s time I did.

Saw this, got all excited - then realised I can’t go as hubby is having his eyes lasered that day… Suspect he might be a bit peeved if I wasn’t there to drive him in and out… oh well, another day mayhap…

Aww, I’ve got to have a YAG laser capsulotomy early September ( to fix the cataract surgery done last year ) Best wishes to your hubby :+1:
