Hello from Chichester, West Sussex

Recently joined the Grey Arrows community from Chichester, West Sussex. Currently running a DJI Mavic 4 Pro (upgraded from a DJI Air 3S) and DJI 360 Avata. Looking for fellow UAV operators in the area to go on day trips with as I am currently unable to fly my Avata 360 without a spotter and since moving here I haven’t found anyone to join me.

Interested in cybersecurity, motorbikes (don’t currently ride, just perform backpack duties), and technology. If you’re in the area of just want to connect please drop me a message. Looking forward to meeting drone operators in my local area. I do also fly in Dorset and Devon quite regularly so if you are further afield then let me know.

Flying a drone is great fun but sometimes you feel the need to have a purpose for doing so and the Challenges category provides some great reasons for you to fly.

There are regular challenges which are open to all, that attract members of all abilities. Support, advice and constructive criticism is freely available; still photography, video and the techniques for editing both are involved in the challenges. Suggestions, for subjects or for complete challenges, are always welcome - take a look in the Challenges category for more information.


We’re a well established club with many knowledgeable members so it’s very likely that any issues you come across will have been discussed here before. Our discussion forum has very powerful search features which should help you find what you need but if you get stuck you can post a new question in the Questions & Answers category.

And finally, if you are new to drones and wondering what it’s all about, have a look at Resources for a beginner.

Welcome once again!

On J4 of the M25, so not far from you; though I’m not that great as a spotter, I trip over my own shadow most days :joy: but happy to take my Mini 2 for an outing in your area

Nothing more terrifying than tripping over your own shadow with a drone in your hand. If it’s any consolation my nickname in the cadet force was Sgt. Trips!!!
