amator · Feb 10, 2018

I am suprised. I thought I am far the oldest in this section. (65) P3P and Mavic Pro.

52 here, but 50 is the new 30, right? I'm still doing the stuff I love...just slower.

54 years young ... feel like I’m 24. MP and extra batts are always in the truck and charged ... ready at a moments notice. Been playing with quads since 2010 ... sure has become easier to go flying lately. I fly every chance I get. “I’m never going to grow up and you can’t make me!”

23144 and getting stronger every day. Retired in 21748 due to a head on collision with a young lady who fell asleep at the wheel. Both survived with minor injuries.. I have been into drones for several years and still have unbuilt kits in the garage and house. Getting ready to move them to my new 40x32 Man Cave. I own 2 Honda VTX's motor cycles,1500 & 1800. I currently fly a MP, Spark, P3A , Yuneec Typhoon H Pro (2), Breeze, Typhoon 4K and 3DR Solo upgraded + 4 backups (price drop - couldn't help myself) Avid Yak fisherman as well as hiking and camping. Figure out my age if you care to.
Thanks to all the members and for their help. Just fly and have fun.

I'll turn 70 in May.

I've been building and flying drones for 5 years now. I have nine of them including 3 hexes , 4 quads and a tri-copter plus an RC air boar made up of crashed drone parts on airplane pontoons. The MP is the only one I own that I did not build either from scratch for from a frame kit and it has pretty much rendered the others more or less obsolete. Such is this hobby and I'm proud to be among the largest group here! Thank you all!.

20 y.o, Mavic Pro. Am I missing something or.. Ok, now I'm feeling like a very confused alien here. Back to read-only mode again. Peep-peep.

I was actually surprised my age group is the main age group!

I know it's early in this thread, but I'm surprised there aren't younger members. Maybe they're all asleep already.

It's very simple! When we are younger, we have absolutely sure of everything! We know everything and the older ones are outdated, overtaked, and they knows nothing!

Thanks to this younger phenomenon we have hundreds of videos of drones crash on the net!

74
25 mentally, 95 physically.
Still riding my cruiser motorcycle with Mavic tucked away in the saddlebags!

I suspect as we get older we can more easily afford tools and toys like this since we're no longer feeding and housing one or more bottomless pit. We have the time and opportunity to travel and use a drone to improve our photo/video memories. Never too old to have fun!

Someone mentioned it already, 60 is the new 40. I’m doing quality photography for 10 years, the Mavic Pro platform is the natural extension of my lens.

66 years young. Which leads me to believe that maybe the authorities are a little harsh with all the (No Drone Zone's) there are.
Just come back from Tasmania and was unable to fly anywhere decent as wherever I went the dreaded NO DRONE ZONE signs were up.
Thinking of selling my Drone.
