When taking off and landing please announce this so everyone close by is aware
2 categories of drones - DJI Type and Self-built
Taken in turns from the hour (to be decided on the day)
Flying starts on the hour for 45 minutes
The pilots at the Toal point will decide on channels and frequencies, etc., between themselves
No powering on of ANY drone or controller ANYWHERE else on site whilst the 45 minutes of flying is taking place – Powering on a drone outside of the TOAL area could cause an FPV drone to crash
Any other RC-type machine must be controlled from the TOAL point and with permission from the current flying pilots
Once the 45 minutes are up, please land your drones, park your RC cars, etc.
After all the drones are landed, we will have 10 minutes of tinker time
This means anyone can now power up and tinker!
During this time, if a pilot wishes to fly, they can, but only from the TOAL point and at their peril!
And most important ….Don‘t be a *****…….. You know!
Please note: NO FLYING will take place on Friday (2 PM arrival time onwards) until a safety briefing has taken place
I here is that drone bug thats targetting drone operators that week end but symptoms only are seen in none drone people. I hear that doctors are prescribing a weekend in a field. Just let them know you will be taking precautions so they are aware. You are just looking out for them. While your at it… ask for a raise due to you being considerate to people there. I am sure these will give you the day off. They may however extend your holiday a lot longer. A LOT LONGER.
Option 2. Ask…“if somone just did not turn up for work with no explanation but said it was important… is that ok” dont forget to add… “asking for a friend”
A message to people who have not done a big meet. You can see by the increasing list of people signing up… it is popular and you fet to have a fun weekend with like minded people. Its worth a visit if you can get there.
payment in advance required
