Hi from sunny Plymouth

Hey everyone !

Not entirely new here, I had a Mavic Air 2 back in 2020 but made the decision to sell it, kids were young and I just didn’t get enough time to get out flying.

But I’ve always missed the ‘buzz’ of flying so now the kids are teenagers, and all I get out of them is a grunt if I’m lucky, I’ve got myself a new bird !

Looking forward to taking to the skies again !
Cheers
John

Hey John ! Great place to fly, I flew my Mavic air 2 up around there 5 years ago and got some great vids. I used the lighthouse on POI and flew around it, came out really good !
