    UK drone laws and licensing

    Just a quick one for UK pilots.... I'm about to take photos/provide live Facebook feed for a beerfest near me. It's a village thing and I have no interest in charging... Just giving our beerfest the edge this year. Is it legal? I can't seem to find info on needing a licence for non profit...

    IMU problem

    +1! Small tumble from clipping a bush and now it says 'imu error'. When I calibrate the status bar goes almost to the end on the 1st calibration (flat on the ground) and goes no further. Sorry to hijack the thread but I guess this is the same problem as the Roaddogg

    NY, with embedded telemetry

    Nice vid and cool telemetry! Try an imu and gimbal calibration for your horizon tilt. Worked for me

    Overkill?

    Jeez all you need is a hillbilly and a box of buckshot. It'll only cost the taxpayer a six-pack of cold ones too

    Dealing with spectators.....

    I'll put money on that poor guy not being a perv. Probably just enjoying his hobby like you when someone saw him, the kids playing nearby and put 2 and 2 together coming up with 5. Think you dodged a bullet by forgetting that record button my friend!

    Lowepro Tahoe 150 bag
