Hi @Steve2644 and welcome to Grey Arrows :wave:t2:

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:

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.

And finally, if you are new to drones and wondering what it’s all about, have a look at Resources for a beginner.

Welcome once again!

There’s always plenty of power and solar available.

If you want to see what options are available and can wait, you won’t go without power at the big meet

Welcome and see you there

Hi @Steve2644 and welcome to the GADC community

Congratulations on booking and you wont be disappointed its a great weekend.

Like Chris @milkmanchris said there is also plenty of power at the big meet and i am sure if you ask nicely someone will allow you to tap into their until you find something that will suit your needs. And also there are loads of different options out there some of it comes down to budget and what you are willing to pay. Also depends on what you want to run from it as well.
I have the Ecoflow River 2 oro which i have found fairly good. I have a solar panel to go with it but havent got around to trying it.
