Hi All I’m New 👋 - Oxford

Hi all my name is Jordan 39 a Refrigeration Air Conditioning Engineer from Oxford.

I Bought a Drone as I love photography and documenting my Adventures either by Go pro Diving on the Barrier Reef or Drone flying over the Lake District it’s become a big hobby of mine.

I’m still pretty new to Drone flying but learning and getting there.

Any help and advice from people would be much appreciated.

Thank you :+1:

Seconded. The club is very friendly and there are plenty of very experience pilots happy to answer questions and help out. The banter is evil, though…

Welcome :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: Enjoy your new drone. Which one do you have? Like you I’m new, had my first drone for just a couple of weeks now & had two good days flying it, learning the ropes!
Would love to watch any of your ‘Barrier Reef’ footage if you’ve published it (Youtube???) Where might one find it?

Hi @J.Halsey1985 and welocme to the GADC. We always say in this group, no question is a silly on, so please ask if you need assistance or advice from anyone. If the person you ask doesn’t know, there will be someone who will know, I’m sure.
