    Flying a Drone in France

    Is there anyone else finding great difficult to find a unrestricted space to fly in France We've traveled from Dieppe to nearly the Mediterranean and every time we've stopped we've been in an area where it's forbidden to fly a drone. They can't br many places left!!! Anybody else had this...

    Bird Strike

    Thanks... It wasn't a club I joined with much enthusiasm. However I seemed to have had a lucky escape. I have put red reflective tape on it.... So far so good

    Bird Strike

    I was flying in the UK, so nothing as big or frightening

    Bird Strike

    So were there people who got attacked even with the tape.... Maybe there's some evidence it does deter but not completely

    Air 2S
