Hi Rob / @RobbiePhoto , and welcome to GADC.
You’ll find you’re not the only member that’s spent years behind cameras. 
Several members are also Spark owners, so you’re in good company and there’ll be plenty of experience to draw on, if ever you need it,
If you haven’t already, take a look at the Map of Members and you’ll get an idea if there are other members in your neck of the wood.
(Don’t forget to add yourself to that map : Members’ Location Map - A Guide)
Also, if you’ve not seen it, check out our map of places where members have flown. Obviously, this is mainly populated by posts from the more sedate drones than yours, but there’s always a change that it might be of assistance.
Any questions, ask away by posting in the #questions-and-answers section.
