Hello From A Brummie

Introductions
1

Hi all. I recently bought my first drone (DJI Mini Pro 4). I had a tentative fly up and down my garden first but it was a bit gusty. Got out on Monday to a local playing field and wow, what a different experience! Still loads to learn but looking forward to getting out and about - weather permitting of course!

Hi Foley - thanks for the invite to Great Barr. It would have been good to get out with some like minded people. Unfortunately, I am working this weekend, so maybe next time! :+1:
