Hello from Cheshunt

Hi all. Am new to the drone scene, but have many years experience of filming and editing, so want to extend my capabilities. I literally got the Mini Pro 4 about 3 weeks ago, and am already considering buying the Neo and an Osmo Pocket 3, with an idea to make a lot more content based on areas in Hertfordshire, where I live. Currently in the process of studying for my A2 C of C so that I can use it commercially in the future.

Already loving the vibe in these forums and hoping that I can contribute.

There is no requirement for such qualification for using your 4 (or a Neo) for commercial flying

The only need is to have proper insurance in place

No, as a I purchased a bundle from Drone scene that included it. That was priced at £99, but the overall discounts on that package totalled over £300, so I can live with that. :grinning:

I’m taking the A2 more for my own peace of mind, tbh. I don’t just want to know how to fly the drone, and that is what I am getting from the course. So far, so good!

@themartinbailey Welcome to GADC

It’s mostly common sense, and am near the end of the course without any major issues or concerns.
