Hi. Newbie from Kernow. So new I dont even have a drone. Looking for suggestions on a drone for general use under 250 g. I do travel abroad alot and realise I have missed amazing opportunities to get some decent views of places from above. Am going to Corfu in August. Anyone got any tips as to what certs or documents I will need to legally fly in their airspace. I would like some footage of Corfu old town and the coastline. Cheers in advance.

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

I recently joined. Looking at the map I do not see any airspace avoidance or restricted airspace. I can see where members live. Am I doing something wrong please?

Imho - DJI mini 4 pro if in budget, or DJI flip is cheaper with decent camera - although different opinions on that drone, or even DJI neo if camera is good enough for you. Wind tolerance lower on the last 2 but plenty of youtube videos for reviews/comparisons

Amazon are doing a deal atm for the DJI mini 4K with 2 batteries at £279 so may be worth a look thats what I got only issue is no collision detection but that just means you need to learn how to fly better so for me as a newbie thats a good thing!

Welcome to GADC, I’m not particularly experienced at the moment, but loving my Mini 3 Pro, some good second hand deals around, I also have a Neo which is great fun, camera is not as good as the Mini, but good enough if you pick your shots.
Cheers for this update
