Hello all - West Midlands

Hi all

Bought my first drone a Potensic Atom 2 - have only just received it and it is dark so no chance of flying it until daylight!

Wondering if it is worth getting insurance for covering the drone and public liability? Anywhere that offers both?

And any further advice would be great. Completed the theory test for using a drone and will get my operator ID this evening.

A quick question for everyone

Does the insurance offered by grey arrows allow for insurance of the drone itself in case of damage etc?

Public liability insurance covers you against third party claims, for example if your drone disconnected and flew off on its own, crashing in to a building, car or a person :see_no_evil_monkey:

I don’t know anyone that insures Potensic drones against damage :confused:
