    EU - Class Labels

    Hi Everyone, Have a question regarding class labels in the EU. My Mavic 3 has a C1 class label and I was hoping to fly in the Open A1 category when visiting Greece later this year. When preparing for my trip, I got in touch with the HCAA to clarify a few things, and in correspondence they...

    2nd Video with a bit more flight time under my belt. Would love some feedback.

    Thank you so much for the detailed crit and suggestions. I will give it all a go! I did have a chuckle at the agonisingly slow pan, now that I watch it back with all the comments in mind :D One of my problems is I really wanted to use this piece of music for the video, and then didn't have...

    Thanks for the encouragement :) Yes, agree wholeheartedly about the cross! When I was editing it I kicked myself that I hadn't thought of that, and have made a note to go back and get some footage that I can slot in for a V2 :)

    Thanks @GreyDad might be a while before I give sport mode a go! It's enough of a learning curve getting to grips with the controls in normal and cine modes ;)

    Thanks @perth boy - the golf course nearby is also a favourite spot for snow antics when it stays around long enough to enjoy!
