Hi Andy, welcome to the world of Drones. I am only a couple of miles away in Gamlingay. I run a Mini Pro 5, small but adequate.

Cheers

Hi Malcolm, great to see there some like minded folks near me. I’m totally new to it so am just working out I can and can’t do.

Are there any clubs, events or meets?

Hi Andy,

Well I am not aware of any clubs or meets in this area, I have a bit of an issue here as there is an FRZ from Little Gransden Airfield that covers most of Gamlingay. I, like you are looking for somewhere to be able to fly regularly. If I find anywhere I’ll let you know. I t guest the alternative is to go up to Little Gransden and ask if I can fly on their airfield, then there is minimal risk to all parties. I have portable radio that covers all necessary frequencies, Amateur Radio is also my main hobby.

cheers for now

Thanks Malcolm. there does seem to be a lot of restricted space. yellow is normally ok’ish though?

We went to Great Barford on Sunday. took some video and stitched it together.

It’s a bit basic and a bit long but it was fun.
