Hello from Cullompton (Devon)

Hi,

I’m Jennifer, and I’m very new to drones (though as a child I always wanted to become a helicopter pilot!)

I’m fairly outdoorsy: climber, mountain biker, paddler, and I enjoy photography. Getting a drone has been a revelation - can’t think why I didn’t see the potential before now :woman_facepalming:t3:

Looking forward to developing my flying skills, learning how to get the best out of my drone, and dipping my toe into videography, to share some of my adventures.

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.

Hi, I’m also a new member.

I’m also a new member, perhaps my name gives that fact away.

I retired in March and decided now was the time to take the plunge, my drone should be here tomorrow.

I hope you enjoy the hobby and have some great times and get some awsome footage.

Out of interest, what drone did you go for as a beginner?

All the best Graham. :+1:

I was initially drawn towards a DJI Mini 4K, but the more I thought about it, the more I realised the Mini 4 Pro was more suited to my needs, being able to track my movements on solo adventures. After thinking on it a bit more, and raiding the piggy bank, that’s what I went for. I’m delighted with it :slightly_smiling_face:

That’s what I went for, after some thought and lots of youtube research just seemed like a good option.

Have fun with it, now starts the hard work.
