Hi from the north west. I’ve got a DJI Spark, got it about 3 years ago. I’ve flown a bit but not as much as I thought I would have. It was originally bought for an extended bike ride through Europe in 2019. I did get use it and got some good stuff.
I came here as I was looking for interesting places to fly locally.
