Thanks... I did actually do the mock on UAVHUB (badly 😫) but yeah I'll go back through and use it as a guide. Surprising how little there actually is other than the CAA which is pretty dry.

Hey guys, Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction... I'm considering getting my GVC (already have A2 CofC) and I'm struggling to find study material. I know it will all come from the RAE when/if I decide to actually go for it but until then all the RAE docs are locked until...

Crusader14, Thanks for that :)

Thanks for that Andrea, appreciated :)

I've got an Air 2 but had been personally looking at the Mini as I thought it a good place to start. As I said in my original post I was gifted this drone so I'm not opposed to taking on another. Andrea, if it's not too much trouble could you please give me a quick rundown of what benefits the...

Lionfish, We'll get there :) some of the rules in the UK seem a little excessive but I'm sure they have been put in place with safety in mind.

Hi Old Man Mavic, Thanks for the welcome! When you say highly populated, where is the line drawn. Clearly I can't fly over a city centre but this is where I get confused... Purely as an example, say I had two fields nearby and these 2 fields were separated by a road and a residential street...

Hi all, I'm a complete novice when it comes to drones, I was gifted one just tonight so have been trying to familiarise myself with all the rules and regs. I understand that that I need to register and complete the test now. I was looking at the drone code and maybe I'm just not getting this...
