The people have voted, exit polls conducted and the votes tallied. Do the results match the pollsters’ predictions?
Let’s find out! 
Your subject for the RTF competition running from 15th January to 28th January 2023 is: Industry
And now for the fun part:
RTF RULES
Scope
The requirement is to submit a still image to illustrate the subject of the competition. The subject for the competition running from 00:01 Sunday, January 15th to 23:00 Saturday 28th January 2023 is Industry
The image must be captured during the time that the competition is open and obviously be taken by a drone in flight - so somewhat higher than your eyeline please!
Editing is confined to colour and exposure adjustments and crop only. There must be no removal or pasting of an object.
You can create as many images as you wish and submit the best in this thread. However, only one image will be accepted for judging. If you wish to show multiple entries please place each in a separate post and indicate which one you wish to be your competition entry - otherwise your last submitted image will be placed in the poll. Basically, if you have a selection of images of the same subject, have the courage of your convictions and post only the one that you think is best
Images must be posted with the following information as a minimum:
- Location
- Time and date
- Aircraft/camera used
- Feel free to add any further information that you think will be of interest
Voting
Images will be judged by the members of GADC who may vote for any number of images by means of an anonymous poll open for two days after the closing date for competition entries.
Voting in the poll is open to all GADC members, whether they have entered the competition or not.
You may vote for all, some or none of the entries.
In the event of a tie an artificial intelligence algorithm will decide the winner
The original media may be requested by the judges in case of a dispute.
Schedule
The competition subject will be announced every second Saturday around 22:30. The subject will be chosen by a poll of GADC members selecting from three that have been picked at random from the subject list. You may make additions to the list at any time.
The competition will run from Sunday 00.01 to Saturday 23.00 fourteen days later. Voting by poll will be open for a further two days until Monday 22:00
The winner, second and third-placed competitors will be announced shortly after the vote is closed and counted
Have Fun! Be Safe!
All flights are the sole responsibility of the individual conducting them. Each competitor must abide by the drone code and adhere to the limitations and restrictions imposed upon them by aviation law, the aircraft being used and the qualifications they hold. Landowners’ wishes and permissions must be respected and adhered to. If a flight is undertaken in a restricted zone proof of permission having been granted is required.
I was sitting at my desk on Friday editing wedding video and thought I need to get out lol, don’t know why Grangemouth came in to my head but thought it would make a great pic for the industrial RTF comp. If you ever go back drive past it heading east, you’ll see a country lane which runs along it’s eastern perimeter, no sign of security.
