New Flyer - West Wales

Hi folks.
I’m a complete novice having recently bought my 1st mini drone - Dji Mini 3 fly more package.
It’s purely a leisure thing, although who knows what the future might bring.
I’ve had a Pantom 3 Advanced for a few years (bought 2nd hand on a whim) but have not flown it for various reasons. The mini 3 seems a much better option for me right now though.
I’m looking forward to learning and developing my skills, hopefully with some help when needed :slightly_smiling_face:.
All the best
Alan

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.
