Let's get more meetup sites checked out - Group-Southeast

Questionable - I’ve flown there .. once.

Too much going on for a while .. and I don’t want to get attacked by Great Bearded Throat Warbler parents protecting their offsping, either. :stuck_out_tongue: (their twitcher protectors obviously the bigger issue. :scream:)

Google Earth (looking westerly) shows a good, paved, path (it’s a national cycle path I seem to recall?) leading up to the track level .. complete with keep left and give way scribbles on the ground (jeez! What an effing waste of tax payers money that kind of thing is! :enraged_face:) .. but at least that makes accessibility straightforward.

It’s a place (at ground level) I’ve intended to fly ever since I first started using Litchi .. to see just how accurate, and repeatable, a course it can create .. and have a drone slaloming the viaduct piers .. at ever increasing speed. :zany_face:
It’s just something I’ve never got around to.

Nice one. I didn’t check what was it, tbh. I just know it’s there :rofl:
If we’re good to go, if I can, I will :+1:

The Hospital of St Cross just up the road is also a nice historic location to capture. I flew over it last year.

Yes!! That’s also a good one :+1:

Almost exactly eight years ago ..

Hi all,

Has anyone flown in Enham Park or Chalrton Football ground in Andover?

Sorry, I tried to upload a screenshot of these areas but couldn’t find out how…

Use Drone scene

Are you proposing a meet-up at these sites

If so, then look at the first post

And help @macspite gather the information, or you can just go for it and arrange one

I’ve been to look at this site this afternoon @macspite @Andre_James I think it has potential. I didn’t fly there as it was too windy today though :roll_eyes:

Plenty of open space apart from the sports pavilion that may be a bit close but you can always walk further away from it. Not sure when any clubs are there playing football or cricket etc as I couldn’t find any info on the notice board…

Looks like an interesting site, I’d be interested in joining if a meet is setup here :slight_smile:

Thank you

@SeiryuFPV @Andre_James

The weather looks calmer this week. How about setting a day for a meet up now?

How does either Wednesday or Thursday 5:30pm sound?

Hey! Apologies, for some reason I have only just seen this.

Unfortunately my work schedule won’t allow me to get over that way during the work week. I can meetup Saturday or Sunday though if that works :slight_smile:

No worries.

Yep I’ll be ok for Saturday. 5:30pm still ok? Weather permitting though!

@Andre_James is that ok for you?

Hi Laura,

do you think you could set this up as a meetup using Drone Scene?

That way all the South East group will see it so you may get a few more attendees.

It is a bit daunting at first but once you have set up your meeting you will realise how easy the process is. There is a great video by @ianinlondon which takes you through the process:

(I’m hoping to keep this thread for suggestions, not arranging meetups themselves)

Sure thing, Saturday at 5:30 works well for me! As you say weather permitting though aha
