I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

Blimey mate, slow down lol :rofl:

You flew around there so quick I could barely take any of it in :smiley:

I’ve got a thing for dams and reservoirs, can you walk right across the top of the dam wall there?

Don’t worry. Didn’t fly that fast. Just speeded it up in iMovie. Try to keep my videos to 1 min to stop the viewers droppig off :slight_smile:

I want to fly here @smeacham, but there are no parking or take off and landing markers. Would you be able to add some to the map please?

Do they own all the land in the area?

drones are not permitted to fly over any of our locations at any time without Welsh Water’s consent

Umm… yes, they are :roll_eyes:

Hi. Hope I’ve replied in the correct area. Newish drone flyer here, I live near Elan Valley so dropped into the info centre and asked about drone policy having seen on drone assist that they charge and you need prior permission etc.
Lovely lady on reception gave me a leaflet with the info detailed here already but suggested I email the head warden.

He replied the same day with a really nice email giving permission, subject to some small provisos that it’s OK.

Hi @Pigpen, I hope you didn’t pay them to fly over their land :scream: :exploding_head:

And it looks as though you’re quite new here :wave:t2:

Why not nip over to the Introductions page, and say hello properly and tell us a bit about yourself. :+1:t2:

Hi. No, I didn’t pay them. Tbh they didn’t know anything about payment.
