Just joined the grey Arrows - County Durham

Hi forum members I have now eventually joined this forum.

I have in the past I say past some 10 years ago had a DJI phantom 2 great fun
And yes have to admit there were no rules then.

But Long gone now.

But a few weeks ago I bought theDJI phantom 3 had a few trips with it.
And for those that could be shocked at that
I have an operators ID and a Flyers ID. Got this sorted before flying
So keeping within the law .
I have two other drones .as well big problem with one .
Anyway more I guess on that later.
