Hi everyone!

I’ve recently gotten myself into the world of drones and joined this forum alongside my father @Kev67 , and whilst he likes his stunning 4K ultra-resolution cinematic drone footage, I’m personally more of a fan of the FPV side and bought myself a Radiomaster Boxer ELRS last week to start practicing in a sim before getting the real thing and I’m really excited to get into the hobby.

I’m looking forward to learning more and seeing everyone’s awesome footage and photos! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hi @CJ_Dawson and welcome to Grey Arrows :wave:t2:

Looking for affordable Drone Public Liability Insurance that covers you throughout the UK and Europe?

Unlike other insurance providers, Grey Arrows Drone Club only charges £9 per year for £5,000,000 of Public Liability cover, making us the most affordable drone insurance provider in the UK.

Our £5,000,000 Public Liability Insurance is available exclusively to our Gold Members. Find out more here:

Looking for recommendations of places to fly? Check out our interactive map on Drone Scene and please feel free to add locations of your own too :smiley:

Interested in upgrading your level of membership of our Club? Read about all the benefits of Silver and Gold membership at:

Wondering whether you can fly a particular model of drone under particular circumstances? Check out Good 2 Go where you’ll soon find the answer :blush:

Have you seen our Members Map? You may find some members living near you.

Feel free to add yourself to the members map too!

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.

Also - being in Corby - you are seriously close to our Big Meetup, in September. Full details here : The Big Meet part deux 2026
Hopefully see you there. :+1:

Welcome once again!

@CJ_Dawson, You’re welcome to join us at my flying site in Corby and learn from a couple of members that are seriously good at FPV flying and quad setup.
I invited your Dad too @Kev67 who’ll find that we have Cinematic drone flying too like this.

Send me a DM for more details.
