Hi Everyone,
Im new to forum. My name is Rich (Wadda-C2) and got interested in drones a couple of years ago and still learning all the time. I was a keen locksporter on YouTube with 100s of videos but took to drones as love the thought of being wild like a bird. I started locksport due to life saving operations years ago… Chose this forum Grey Arrows as when in hospital as a youngster due to life saving operations, I was untraduced to the Blue Eagles Helicopter stunt team as even back then had a thing about flying. This was back in the mid 1970s. Anyway, that was my introduction and hope this forum is the right one for me to ask silly questions from time to time to help me learn more.
Ive had a few cheap drones of which were waste of money, then went to Hubsan drones… Then I dived into buying dji… Love them. My first dji was Mavic Air 2 and sold it later due to restrictions and now tick to sub 250g. I had Mini 2, which I recently sold as also have mini 3 Pro… and bought Mini 4 Pro and love them. Thanks for listening to the rant and hope to get involved here best I can due to working hours.

Thank you so much for all the great welcomes as much appreciated. I know when I use to be co-owner and a founder of uklocksport (lock picking forum) I did use to say no question is too silly as we all learn by asking questions.
Im looking into getting a good fast charger to put in my custom Mini 4 Pro case. I currently use Anker 30w superfast charger for my phone and also speeds up charging my drone combo batteries. Anyway bet I need to post a separately for advice on this.
Thanks again for all the great welcomes
Rich
