Hi All,
Tim here from far north Dallas, TX, USA
Until a couple of days ago, I had a Fly More kit on pre-order at Amazon. No hope of getting a delivery date there.
I visited Drones Plus in Frisco, TX, also far north Dallas. Shawn said that they had gotten some in last week and expected more this next week. I got on my smart phone and cancelled my Amazon order. I gave him my credit card and said, "Save one for me".
We'll see how that works.
In my search for a place to fly, I found a map which indicated that Carrollton had 4 places that were authorized to fly. All 4 are located between the 5 mile circle for DFW and the Addison Airport.
They are:
1) The McInnish Sports Complex on Sandy Lake Rd. west of I-35.
2) The Carrollton Senior Center/Public Library on Keller Springs just west of Josey Lane
3) Hebron High School located on Plano Parkway north of Hebron Pky (Park Blvd).
4) The Elm Fork Nature Preserve. Note - This a narrow creek and heavily wooded.
I have NOT authenticated any of these places. Check out these two maps.

I hope to meet up with some of you DFW guys on the ground and in the air.
