Hello people after a couple of years thinking about it I’ve bought my 1st drone, a mini 2 for starters I’ve got all my nessary numbers just waiting for my stickers to turn up so I can take off legally, when I’m abit more experienced I’d like to try some night flights and I’m fully aware I need a decent strobe light:thinking:the thing is which one, I know it has to be visible from 3 miles for others not me, but I’m worried about exceeding the 250g weight, any ideas??? Thankyou from Tricky 1066 in Hastings

Welcome to Grey Arrows, you’ve made an excellent choice in drone!

I think this is a FAA regulation not the CAA.

Hi Tricky1066. I’m in Bexhill, I can’t answer your question because I only bought my drone in December and still learning. Not much I can do at the moment because of the lockdown.
Not to worry mate, thanks anyway
What stickers do you need for a Mavic Mini?! I thought it was classed as a “toy”, so didn’t need anything, although I’ve put my phone number on in case it goes rogue.
@anon97722470 you’ll probably want to familiarise yourself with this (it’ll answer your question): The Drone and Model Aircraft Code | UK Civil Aviation Authority
Cheers. I’m probably reading it wrong, but who’s to say if the Mini is a Toy or not? I could read it as being a Toy, as I’m not using it for commercial purposes, so I don’t need operator ID. I thought they were making it clearer, but they might need to go a bit further for simpletons like me
