Intro
Want to chat drones ?
Want to drink tea and watch drones ?
Want to build confidence of flying ?
Want to try other drones ?
Want to just fly and not by the only drone flyer ?
Darn it I just want to fly my drone!
Everyone welcome. FPV’er, Camera Drones or even people who not a got a drone yet. No drone police, but do not be an arsehole rule applies.
Bring Grey Arrows name badges (if you have them)
Bring tea, coffee, snacks and refreshments.
Bring batteries.
Bring spares, props!
Bring a chair!
Bring first aid kit (half joking, we once had a cut finger).
Without a Drone
Still welcome. I plan to bring my DJI Mavic Mini and my analogue FPV whoop. Either set can be used by anyone. Both I have crashed multiple times. Both have been crashed by others and me and are gathering dust in-between meet-ups.
With a Drone
Chase other drones, take photos of the park or admire the views.
Date and Time
Saturday 20th April . I plan to be there around 09:30 am and plan to leave around 15:00.

Poll
Possible Attendance
Come rain or shine, I will be there
Fair weather and a fair wind, I will be there
If the stars align, I might just make it
Sorry No, prior commitments
Alas, something more important than drone flying (WTF??)
Sure bring them along.
But would be nice if they register as a free account so we know the rough numbers on the poll of attendees. (Nice not a requirement).
I will do some boring stuff like allocate channels once we have a few FPV’s in the air.
There is a Morden in Dorset, north of Wareham, as well as the better known Morden in southwest London.
Duplicate place names are not uncommon in the UK. I was working on an installation in St Ives when a driver arrived, a day late and swearily upset. He had been to St Ives in Cornwall …
Sorry, can’t attend as this clashes with the Spring BBQ which is being held by The Drone Safe Store at their headquarters in Chichester. Went to their summer bbq last year which turned out to be the hottest day of the year…hopefully, the weather repeats itself for this first bbq of the year too!
Brendon , I will try to pop in for an hour but one of my grandsons is running in a Schools event at Crystal Palace and I promised to watch him. Not sure what time yet but hope to see you mid morning if I can

, have to miss this one, it’s my daughter’s birthday
as it is a south east event.
