I'm free most days towards evening, I've just been waiting for some better weather to break out the drones. Hoping to get some good shots of Downtown buffalo, just trying to find a good spot to take off from to keep los

Hello gang.

I am new here and have a M2P.
Was wondering if a club was formed yet, or are you guys doing informal get togethers?
Besides the lock downs of course, what is the current situation in other words.
Would like to do some flying with others and learn more about the area.

I am on Grand Island, by the river.

Thanks!

No club formed. We just get together when we can. There's a couple of other guys besides Bob and I but they don't seem to get together with anybody .welcome to the forum. I fly almost every night if it's not raining. I have over 1000 miles flown in a little over a year.

Hello Freedom1.

Pleased to hear from you.
I don't fly every day, but I try to on weekends.
This lock down and crappy weather has been a hurdle (as I believe we can't congregate in parks currently).
Where do you currently fly?
As for me, I fly around my house right now but would like to go somewhere new on the weekend and fly with other drone pilots (to learn and share).

Thanks!

Hi Freedom1.

I may stop by Saturday or Sunday afternoon if you are there.

Thanks.

Weekends I fly just about anytime. I'm usually down there to take pictures of the sunsets every night. I'm headed down there now to see if there's any sunset tonight

I see you have been chatting with Rob (Freedom1). We have gotten together a couple of times. Im looking forward to flying with him again. I broke my arm in February and the recovery has been a long process so far. Im sure we could be socially responsible and meet up to fly. If your going to meet up this weekend post here.

Welcome to this forum!

Its pretty weak. Still dont have full range of motion but getting better. Theres tendon damage in my hand but I just picked up my controller and I think I may be able to fly. I go to physical therapy twice a week.
