South East England Meet-up | Saturday 23rd Sept | Knockholt

Meetups
1

Bring Grey Arrows name badge from big meet (if you have them),
Bring tea, coffee and maybe something better if not driving.
Bring snacks.
Bring batteries.
Bring spares!
Bring a chair!

This involves a navigating a gate and a 5 min uphill walk. Happy to revert back to near Hoo - but thought I would mix it up a little. This is not the most accessible location - but pre-cheacked and I think this is fine for expected attendees.

I plan to be there around 10:30 am, plan to stay until 1400 ish. However feel free to pick you own times.

Everyone welcome. FPV’er, Camera Drones or even people who not got a drone yet. No drone police, but do not be an arsehole rule applies.

It is a popular spot for drones and there maybe other drone/wing flyers who are not necessary there for the grey arrow meeting. However RestlessZombi and I found them a friendly bunch.

Thank you for another brilliant meet Brenden @bmsleight , it’s always good when partners come along and join in the chatter and the ooo’s and ahhhh’s when the FPV’s are in the air. Loved it, I just got to see later if my Avata was recording this time lol.
