Hi from Walsall
I’m relatively new to the hobby of flying a drone and currently have a Dji mini 3 pro which is a fantastic easy to fly drone which Iv picked up well.Its a 249g drone as your all well know so has less restrictions for flight which I thought would be a good starting point .Im hopefully going to learn all about flight restrictions etc and the legality side of flying a drone safely from the fantastic drone club build my drone collection and get some fantastic footage of some interesting places thanks for accepting me

@Ebernezer Yes Richard, just watch the prison FRZ. Shugborough National Trust is good but with caution. I have explained how I filmed there.

Click on my link below to see my places on Drone Scene for info. :star_struck:

Colin’s Drone Scene Entries

Drone Scene is awsome and full of info and tips, you’ll need full membership to see them all but well worth it!

We also meet up on Cannock Chase with other GADC members so watch out for them and join the West Mid’s group for the heads up. There is a meet this Sunday in Derby, run by @JockyB that I’m going to, don’t be shy join us, we are all a great bunch of guys (well most of us :innocent:) falling over ourselves to help others in this great hobby.
