This is where I practice my hang gliding while my drone is charging.
Many similar to this one with "grounded" camera in all weather. Beautiful hiking here, too.
Enjoy the forum!
Welcome to the forum. We look forward to your participation and more of your view of the world.
Your 76 or you were born in 76?
Hang Gliding, I did it once, crashed in to some rocks, then I woke up.
Never tried it again!

Yup. 76 years old and counting. Getting a little creaky around the edges. I've always wanted to try hang gliding. Maybe I'll go sky diving when I'm 99? But not where the photo was taken...

Below is the link to all of the downloads offered by DJI for the Mini 2, including the User Manual.
After you read the Manual, read it again, you will be surprised what you missed the first time and you will be better prepared for that first "scary moment…"

@wcmead, welcome to the forum ,from a fellow 76 years young flyer,i will give the hang gliding a miss ,if you dont mind though
BTW, Remote ID requirement might ground my Mini 2. I (unfortunately) registered it, which brings with it the Remote ID requirement:
"Drones which are required to be registered or have been registered, including those flown for recreation, business, or public safety, must comply with the rule on Remote ID."

Drones or unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are fundamentally changing aviation, and the FAA is committed to working to fully integrate drones into the National Airspace System (NAS). Safety and security are top priorities for the FAA and remote identification (remote ID) of drones is crucial to...

The FAA doesn't seem to understand how to write rules that account for different drone capabilities and differing local conditions. Major bummer.
Not sure yet if RID will end my brief acquaintance with drone photography, but it very well could do so.

Apparently the FAA website is wrong! A registered (stock) Mini 2 does not require RID-- I registered mine and they accepted the No RID check mark.

I am Part 107 licensed and my Mini 2 is registered under my Part 107 Account and there is no problem registering it with NO RID. The reason is when I must have that Rid Module on my Mini 2, the RID Module will be registered, at an additional cost. The Mini 2 does not need to have the RID check box checked as it is not transmitting the RID Signal, only the module would be…
How do you practise hang gliding?
