Hi all. I’ve been reading for a while and getting a feel for the community, and I’m excited to see how friendly you all seem. I’ve only recently gotten into flying drones, a friend introduced me over the Christmas holidays, and I have become a little hooked. I’m ordering parts to build my first drone, and I would love to fly with you all sometime in the future! look forward to chatting with you, C ---

Thanks everyone. I can’t wait to crash and share the result with you all. 😅 I’m currently going for a cheap but not crappy build so I can worry less about crashing while I learn. the only thing I’m currently unsure about is what FPV system to go with. I’m not a fan of DJI’s locked-in system, and I’m using expressLRS for my transmitter (Radiomaster Zorro) but aside from video/range comparisons, I don’t really understand what real-world differences the other systems have. Any advice you guys have would be greatly appreciated ---

Hi Myles, welcome from the Black Country. I’m coming down to Wells tomorrow, the missus wants to see the Cathedral. I shall have the Mini 3 Pro in the boot just in case I can find a TOAL site. ---

Thank you for the welcome! You’ll love the city, and it’s always such a calm place to visit. If you get time, sunset from The Tor in Glastonbury can be stunning too (assuming we get a break from the clouds)
