Saying Hi - near Rochdale

Introductions
1

Just introducing myself, Rob - live near Rochdale in OL15 postcode.
Completely new to Drones, got myself a DJI Mini 4 Pro for £630 for the fly more kit.
I`ve been out with in for 3 batteries, completely scares me seeing the drone so high and far away, it looks like its miles away, whereas its less than 300m away and 60m in the air :slight_smile:
Looking forward to learning.

Hiya, yep Ive saw this. I think my son and I are going to be at a sporting event in the centre of Manchester but if he clears that in time then Ill pop down.
Although this has already cost me a fair penny for one gadget, I`d need to be careful of getting jealous and upgrading my new Mini 4 pro :slight_smile:

Hi @BoBeB welcome to the club.
If you don’t make the turn moss meet up, keep an eye out for others. We regularly have meet ups at beacon park in Skelmersdale. May be worth a little trip.
