Hi all - Im new around here but am in South East London.
Ordered my Mavic in Oct and finally received it two weeks ago! However, have no flights yet due to the bad weather!!! Trying to get some footage to finish off my review for my YouTube channel!!

I hope the sun comes up for a while on a weekend some time soon!!

I enjoy your video's !!

Was very tempted to join you for my maiden flight - but it started raining a little so to be honest I didn't rush to get out of work early!!
Hopefully meet up another time!

I like the sound of that ha ha
The weather is improving by the week. I should be around for a Sat afternoon in the next couple of weeks. Any suggestions for a site to fly?

Sat afternoon sounds good to me

You are more than happy to come along and have a go on mine. Always handy to pick up a bit of experience with other users prior to getting yours.

Location is good for me - is it Ok to fly there?
Also will I be able to find parking there too?


Next Sat is fine by me if it means more can make it

There is a car park there so parking is not a problem. I can't do this Saturday as have prior photography arrangements but definitely up for this

As safala89 says, plenty of parking. It's a big area. I am sure someone on here was flying there last week. If we are looking at next Saturday I may pop over there this Saturday for a test flight and see if I run into any obstacles.

 

[darren6270]

Also up for any other suggested flight sites.

I did take the MP out this afternoon from purfleet on the river. Only did the one battery but was just too nice of a day to say no to it?

Lovely photo. Looks a good flying area. Shall we try here next week?
Where do you park to access this area? I may head up there tomorrow afternoon.
