New Member in Falkirk

Hi everyone. I’ve already benefited from the advice of some members regards a flyaway drone this weekend. Didn’t end well for me! Lesson learned!!

I have been flying my drone across the central region of Scotland. There’s a great deal of history here, and being inspired by a couple of local pilot / photographers who post cracking drone content on social media, I’ve been visiting various sites to try and replicate their shots. I cycle the paths of the Union and Forth and Clyde canals often. Started taking lots of photos with my phone, then wondered what the view of the places would be like from a higher vantage point. Read up in all things drone started off with the notion of something in the low end (Potensic or DJI) but was seduced by the awesome quality of the Mini 4 Pro and bought one.

Sad you couldn’t get your drone back, but hopefully all up hill from here. Welcome to GADC!
