Hey folks!
I recently discovered the hobby and bought myself a DJI Mini 4 Pro about 2 months ago.
My primary objective is to create some great recreational footage whilst getting familiar with all the rules and regs.
It’s great to be able to join this community, thanks for having me!
Mike

Flying a drone is great fun but sometimes you feel the need to have a purpose for doing so and the Challenges category provides some great reasons for you to fly.
There are regular challenges which are open to all, that attract members of all abilities. Support, advice and constructive criticism is freely available; still photography, video and the techniques for editing both are involved in the challenges. Suggestions, for subjects or for complete challenges, are always welcome - take a look in the Challenges category for more information.
We’re a well established club with many knowledgeable members so it’s very likely that any issues you come across will have been discussed here before.

Hi @MikeZimbo and welcome to GADC!
Hi Mike, welcome aboard! Looking at your full username, I’m curious to know if you’re originally from Zimbabwe?
Welcome to the group.
Welcome from Steyning.
Horsham District Council ban TOAL from all their parks and properties which is a bit of a pain.
I’m sure you’ll find some great locations though.
Hey @Shamwari! how are you? yes indeed, I was born in Zim and grew up in Harare, where do you hail from?
Hey Martinto, yes indeed, I learnt this very quickly! Bit of a shame but is what it is. No doubt some scenic spots to fly that don’t have the same restrictions, please let me know if there is anything you recommend nearby.
I’ve mostly flown in the Adur flood plain North of the Shoreham Airport NFZ. You can get some decent shots there early or late in the day when the light isn’t too strong and the shadows are long.
Hi from sunny Blackpool
Howzit again Mike. Yes, I’m also from Harare. I moved to the U.K. in 2000 and I now live in North East Derbyshire. I also recently purchased a Mini 4 pro so I’m pretty much a newbie like yourself.
Hey there @MikeZimbo and welcome to the GADC. I was born in Shoreham Hospital, and lived in Findon Village for 17years, till I moved to Birmingham to live withmy hubby @Foley Russ.
Hi MIke @MikeZimbo - welcome to GADC
