Hello from the South West

Hi all

I thought I’d drop in and introduce myself.

I’m based in Exeter and am pretty new to the world of drone flying.

I started with a DJI Neo and have just purchased a DJI Mini 4 Pro (which I haven’t had chance to use yet).

I’m looking forward to learning as much as I can about my new hobby and am, at this stage, more interested in stills photography than video.

Hi @ajc347 and welcome to Grey Arrows :wave:t2:

Looking for recommendations of places to fly? Check out our interactive map on Drone Scene and please feel free to add locations of your own too :smiley:

Wondering whether you can fly a particular model of drone under particular circumstances? Check out Good 2 Go where you’ll soon find the answer :blush:

Have you seen our Members Map? You may find some members living near you.

Feel free to add yourself to the members map too!

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!

Thank you for the warm welcome guys. :slightly_smiling_face:

@PingSpike - I found the site via an internet search when I was looking for public liability insurance and the gold option appeared to offer significantly greater value than other sites and options.
