Hello! New from London! - Kensington

Hi everyone,
I am a novice on this world and I would like to get confort in flying my new drone.

I’ve just got my flyer ID, Operator ID, and going to get the A2 as well soon. I bought a nice DJI Mavic 4 Pro combo and I would like to go around and get experience on how to flying in full safety.

All said and done, is there anyone who would like to spend a couple of hrs and grab a coffee to “assist” me in my first flights?

Based in London,
best
Andy

Hi,

How far are you able to travel? There are a few relatively tame sites in NW London I’m familar with. Towards the Watford area.

Either way, once the weather improves a bit I would be happy to meet up.

Grey Arrows have had a few very successful London based meets and I’m fairly sure there will be more posted.

Edit: Also, what days are generally good for you?
