Hi Neil / @kinega , and welcome to GADC.
I made the leap from a Phantom 2 to the Mavic Pro - and the difference was amazing! Most important/significant to me was the compact size and the improved portability. … and FPV, too, for me.
If you haven’t already, take a look at the Map of Members. This is a relatively new feature so not everyone is on there as yet, but I’m sure there are other members in your neck of the woods that will come and say Hi.
(Don’t forget to add yourself to that map : Members’ Location Map - A Guide)
Also, if you’ve not seen it, check out our map of places where members have flown that might be of assistance.:
