Hi - New here and new to Drone Flying ! Cheshire

Hi Everyone - thought I’d say Hi ! I found you all as I’ve been trying to find clarification on the new CAA rules and came across the site which looks full of great info (thank you :smile: )

We own a DJI Mini 4K Pro, which we recently acquired for work use - we’re Chartered Surveyors and we use the drone for looking at roofs and chimneys that sort of thing when undertaking building inspections as well as having fun with it at weekends!

Looking forward to learning a lot more and hopefully contributing a bit to discussions as we get more knowledgeable !

Based in Cheshire.

Flying a drone is great fun but sometimes you feel the need to have a purpose for doing so and the Challenges category provides some great reasons for you to fly.

There are regular challenges which are open to all, that attract members of all abilities. Support, advice and constructive criticism is freely available; still photography, video and the techniques for editing both are involved in the challenges. Suggestions, for subjects or for complete challenges, are always welcome - take a look in the Challenges category for more information.


We’re a well established club with many knowledgeable members so it’s very likely that any issues you come across will have been discussed here before. Our discussion forum has very powerful search features which should help you find what you need but if you get stuck you can post a new question in the Questions & Answers category.

Our Bronze Members are able to enjoy a lot of great services for free but our Silver and Gold Members are eligible for a whole lot more! Read all the details about our Membership Benefits?

And finally, if you are new to drones and wondering what it’s all about, have a look at Resources for a beginner.

Welcome @GavinSB, recently taught my brother in law how to fly so he could use a drone for the same purpose, he also opted for the mini 4 pro. He said its a gamed changer for his work.

Hi @GavinSB welcome to GADC. I am also relatively new to drone flying so you are not on your own.

Well first official outing for it this morning - probably wasn’t the most graceful of first working flights - but we managed not to crash, it or lose it - which we’re taking as a win ! - and it earns its keep as we found something that we couldn’t see from the ground !!
