New to drones from Peterborough

Hi Everyone, I’m new to drone flying after deciding to finally take the plunge as an early birthday gift to myself and managed to get a Mavic Mini with the fly more combo from ebay. I have always wanted to get into flying drones and am loving the experience so far, I am hoping to get better at landscape photography/videography and will be looking to upgrade to the Air 3S in the future.

Any tips or advice you want to share would be great! Thanks

Suggestions, for subjects or for complete challenges, are always welcome - take a look in the Challenges category for more information.
