Hi Anthony, and welcome to GADC.

If you haven’t already, take a look at the Map of Members. This is a relatively new feature so not everyone is on there, and I’m sure there are far more members in your neck of the woods that will come and say Hi.

(Don’t forget to add yourself to that map : Members’ Location Map - A Guide)

Also, if you’ve not seen it, check out our map of places where members have flown:

Welcome Anthony and Mert, @amtumem and @MertOzkan
Hope you find some great topics here to learn from.
We are a friendly bunch, and you will pick up a lot of useful tips and tricks.
Just to make your flying experience a little bit easier, we hope!.
You will find some very useful documents in the Members Only section “GADC Drone Information Pack”
Feel free to print out whatever you like.
It is always handy to have a few of them tucked in you Drone Gear, just in case you need them!.
Once again welcome to GADC.

Hi @amtumem and welcome to Grey Arrows!

I’m wondering if this is a genuinely small world…

Did you by any chance buy a Mavic from @MertOzkan? :thinking:

Welcome once again mate!

I’ve flown there a couple of times. Haven’t been there since the fire but remember wanting to go there and fly over the fire that day.

I’ve heard of park rangers pulling up and advising people that they’re not allowed to fly there any more :confused:
Don’t really see what the problem is, it’s the perfect place for flying drones!

Wanstead Flats are actually under LCY flight path and you can see the aircraft fly quite low over the area, but haven’t seen any rangers nevermind being warned, we are heading that way now with Mert you are welcome to join us if you have time.

Would’ve loved to get some flight time in but busy today. Next time…

Wansted Flats has an area for flying model aircraft.

Unfortunately there is no budget, however we could pay your travel expenses and you would get credited in the film. It’s an University of East London Production.

We film the scene ‪this Monday (3rd Dec) at 5pm‬ and would like you to be a part of a choreographed bike scene.

Location :
University Square Stratford
