I found that dropping sharpness below zero gave instant water colour. I always have it at 0 or +1 to avoid this now

Those are the USA rules now, but drone laws are in their infancy. That will almost certainly change as they tighten up the regulations. Also you have to consider that UK airspace is extremely busy and much smaller than the USA. There's almost always something else flying in your area here, so...

I'm currently on the Coptrz course in the UK. It's £995 + VAT, run at multiple locations. Some locations cost a bit more. They run a 4 day course, 2 days of ground school & theory test and 2 days of practical. So far, I'd thoroughly recommend the course.

I have a Mavic and am doing the pfco at the moment. I'm doing the 4 day course with Coptrz and the venue is at Highfield Park in Hook, just past Farnborough. I'll let you know what they do about ATTI mode where my practical on Thursday. I spoke to the instructor from Cambridge UAV at a...

Count me in too, hopefully I can break away from home-life one weekend to go flying.

I'd definitely recommend Newlands Corner. I drove there on my way home tonight, it was like DJI central :) Two Mavics and a P4P. As for Chobham Common, I've never been but it looks like it's in the Fairoaks and Heathrow Airport zones so I'd stay away from there just to be completely safe.

I'm in Knaphill, Woking. I've recently been to Newlands Corner in near Guidlford to fly and am tempted to have a look at Wisley Airfield (abandoned & derelict site). Has anyone else in the area been to Wisley Airfield? How easy is it to get access there?

My DroneWrap finally applied tonight. Generally happy but the back is a little untidy.

Nirwin, if you'd on the south west side of London, jump on the A3 and head out to Newlands Corner near Guildford. It's up on a hill so you can fly over lower land and view from up high - keeping that essential line of sight. I'm still looking for other locations, but I'm tempted to have a go at...

Casey Faris just posted a new video on YouTube. Rates the new dlog highly and has a new LUT on www.groundcontrolcolor.com/mavic to colour grade the footage. Sent from my SM-G920F using MavicPilots mobile app

Newman's Corner = success. No issues and another Mavic pilot turned up while I was flying too. Sent from my SM-G920F using MavicPilots mobile app

It looks like my dronewrap skin is waiting at the local post office. I've got a card in the post telling me I have a £15.45 customs charge to pay before it can be delivered.

That stood out to me to. I'm not bothered about any data protection claims. I'm a BMFA member so have the liability insurance too. Maybe I'll give it a go tomorrow ----------------------------------- Change of plan - if I get out to fly today I'm going to try Newlands Corner and then maybe...

However Flying drones at our places says otherwise. Sent from my SM-G920F using MavicPilots mobile app

I was planning to get out to Box Hill tomorrow and see if I can fly there, only to find out that it's a National Trust location and therefore no drones allowed (certainly no hobby pilots). What's the situation with areas designated Area of National Beauty (ANOB on maps)? Are those also...
