Greetings from Alabama. I'm going to take delivery of my very first quad this week. I'm wondering if any of the members could recommend a good open space in Birmingham where I can practice/learn.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

The DJI software includes a database of NFZs (no fly zones), which are shown on maps.

Once you know where it's okay per DJI to fly, you can use the following website and its downloadable app to determine whether the areas you've found are currently suitable in terms of weather, # of satellites, sunrise, sunset etc.

Welcome from Georgia. I get out to Bham every so often and as long as you are outside the Bham Intl airspace. it's really wide open.

Hi Mark, I’ve heard that Lake Purdue is an amazing locale to fly. I’m fairly new myself, but I’ve been going to the Hoover Met the half a dozen times I’ve been up.
 
Welcome to the community. I go to Trussville occasionally but I have not flown in the area and I am looking forward to any recommendations given.
