Welcome chap,

You’ve come to the right place. Very helpful bunch on here across it seems a number of drones and manufacturers.

Good luck with your Spark.

regards  
G.

Hey fella,

I am actually originally from Halifax. However, I now reside in Scotland, hence the handle.

You might do well to contact Ian at (Twitter handle UAVHive) he’s from Bradford and might be able to help better than me.

I know I have interests in flying some of Yorkshire Water’s reservoirs if I can secure permission at some point this year. Just having a bunfight with Scottish Water over a similar matter.

There is an area on this site that gives you details of areas where others have flown. Just be careful I guess and make sure you get permission.

cheers chap.  
G.

Hi Will / @Pwizzle93, and welcome to GADC.

Quite a few members also have the Spark… so you are amongst good company, and a good resource of info if you have any questions. Please feel free to ask away over on #questions-and-answers.

If you haven’t already, take a look at the [Map of Members](https://greyarro.ws/u/user-map?period=location) and you’ll get an idea of some of the other members in your neck of the wood.

(Don’t forget to add yourself to that map : [Members’ Location Map - A Guide](https://greyarro.ws/t/members-location-map-a-guide/3652))

Also, if you’ve not seen it, check out our map of places where members have flown. Obviously, this is mainly populated by posts from the more sedate drones than yours, but there’s always a change that it might be of assistance.

In your profile, I clicked on your name.  
You don’t really want outsiders knowing the street you live in when you have your name on display as well 😁😉
