Hi All - looking at possibly taking my drone abroad with me to a number of different countries within the EU over the coming months (so far looking at Greece, Spain, Portugal, Canary/Balearic Islands etc). It's not clear/easy to understand what is required within certain countries in terms of...

Another UK flyer - welcome! :) I also use the MA2 and I'm extremely impressed by it. The drone does not have side sensors, so always carry out a check on your surroundings before taking off :)

It is a bit of grey area in that they haven't really defined what a 'built up area' is - but generally, I tend to stay away from streets/villages to prevent any form of annoyance/privacy concerns. Save yourself a confrontation and don't fly above your garden :)

Hello! I would advise undocking them - although they are intelligent batteries and do switch off charging when fully charged, I take them off the dock to make sure I don't run into any problems.

Should only take you 30 minutes to read the drone code & complete the registration :) This forum has a lot of active users that help people everyday, but feel free to PM me if you've got any questions or concerns around UK drone flying etc.

It's super simple - multiple answer theory test (similar to a driving license theory test, but for drones!). https://register-drones.caa.co.uk/individual The cost is £9 - cheap as chips (well, £9 for chips is expensive, but you get the idea). I do suggest you read the drone code before taking...

I just spoke with DJI support on this, as it does strike a concern to me (considering I never got this error when using my Mini!); EDIT: I further queried this with DJI support; ME: Based on your response, are you saying this is a potential fault, and could result in drone malfunction...

Hello & Welcome from a rainy Wales, UK! (Although later today, tomorrow & Thursday we should be reaching around 28 degrees!). I also have the Mavic Air 2, and it's a crazy bit of kit - you'll definitely enjoy it! Just an FYI (as most in the UK seem to forget!), you will need to register for a...

I've got this on a few flights too - not sure if its something I should be concerned about? I got mine in normal mode, too.

Not much at all, unless I plan to film in 2.7K and a small distance, otherwise I always use my Air 2 (4K 60fps, much better at fighting strong winds etc). It's definitely still a great drone, and I often show people that are interested in drones the Mini as it comes at a much cheaper price &...

No problem - if you have the Air 2, which is pricey, I would take advantage of the DJI Refresh Care, as you'll save yourself a lot of money if something were to happen. With the Mini, I was also in the same mindset - it's not 'too' expensive, however, with the weather in the UK (especially...

Not at the moment - I'm still not 100% confident with flying over water etc. But say if I did happen to crash into a tree, hit a power line, or whatever it may be, I can get a replacement at a minor cost compared to the drones value. I look at it like car insurance - you won't make a claim each...

Yup - the Mavic Mini refresh care costed £35.

Definitely - I have a Mavic Air 2. The DJI refresh is around £79, and this allows me to return the drone if crashed, and get a brand new replacement for £69 (instead of paying another £949). https://product3.djicdn.com/uploads/image/file/[email protected]

Looks great! Jealous as it has been too windy here in the UK to fly safely! (20+ mph wind).
