    A small river with a descent waterfall

    Nice video, I personally would have tried to get some close up/low level shots to throw in there, I quite liked the shot flying parallel to the river as well. Thumbswayup

    Best way to clean Drone and what to clean at what frequency

    I suppose that could be a good idea if there was a protective coating of some sort that could be sprayed or applied to the drone, that would protect against any corrosion. I too leave my car close to the water and over time the build up of salt can be quite a lot so I can only imagine what it...

    Best way to clean Drone and what to clean at what frequency

    I’ve wondered this since owning my MPP, i fly a lot over the sea and coast and I’ve always wondered if the salty sea air will have a negative effect on any of the motors or internals. I work in aviation and when our aircraft fly below 500ft over seawater the engines require fresh water washes...

    Activists to fly drones at Heathrow

    This is absolutely ridiculous, I get people want to put there point across and get noticed. But to shut down an international airport is just stupid, why can’t people just do things peacefully where there’s a time and a place for it. Not only will they be effecting the airlines costing them...

    Lulworth cove Dorset.

    Thanks for the great advice! I’ll definitely practice some of the moves you suggested, I’m getting a little bit more confident with the controls I’ve also had a play with the gimbal controls to soften the movements. A lot of my flights are over water so I’m trying to practice a lot before making...

    New pilot from Portsmouth UK

    Thanks, yeah restriction are a pain here quite a few military bases and little airports. But it’s not to bad for flying at my level at the moment.

    Lulworth cove Dorset.

    Thanks! I did take some videos but being relatively new to the drone world they didn’t turn out as I was expecting, it was more video footage of me getting used to the controls and handling of the bird.
