Hahaha, phew! :D:p Mine should be available to pick up from Maplin any minute now! :DThumbswayup

24hrs before I fly to the US, cutting it close :D. Actually a bit nervous, not even sure I'll be able to fly it before I travel with it :confused:
Course you will! As long as you don't fly it in the airport lol!

Spoke to them on the phone this morning and apparently they're out of stock on both until 28th December. Ordered a Fly More anyway. Ordered Fly Less from Amazon on 27th October... will see which arrives first and cancel the other.

No payments taken yet or emails.

I'm sure you'll have fun over there flying it. Make the most of it won't you because the way things are going over here the general public will be banned from flying drones by the time you get back.

Mine is due today! We've all been quite lucky - the miracle of Christmas!

I agree about the drone control - I saw this on the BBC:

Safety test proposal for drone users - BBC News

Its changed - earlier this morning it mentioned the 3500m high drone coming within 20m of a plane - that's gone from the report but it does say lots of pilots are spotting near misses with drones!

Who are these people flying their drones miles above the earth and within a few metres of planes!

Anyway good to enjoy our hobby before its killed off.

I was listening to Radio 5 about 6am this morning , they interviewed a UK Drone manufacturer, he was negative about us guys. I wonder why £££$$$€€€€

Currently awaiting a lil bit of Maplin's magic to arrive after a 3 month wait with Heliguy and still no clue of when.

Just ordered 4 batteries from wheelspin models who had 40 in stock for anyone looking for extra juice.
