Check Florida Drone Supply, right down the street from you as others have said,
you can also ask forum member ThunderDrones who has parts and does repairs
Other than that DJI is where you will end up

I'm sure this has been hampered due to covid-19. Any new activity on this front at this stage. I'm in North Naples, with my first drone, and would enjoy getting with others.

Hello everyone,
For many years I used to fly R/C planes and I used to belong to a local radio club here in Sarasota, FL. Having been retired from flying planes for a few years, I have jumped into drones. After buying my Mavic Mini, I am surprised by the layers of regulations. I am reading and watching videos to research regulations that impose limitations on this hobby. The FAA regulations are very clear, but I am confused and concerned about the imposition of local regulations, especially where I am allowed to fly, or not. The few apps that I have don't show the local restrictions, only the FAA.
I am interested in joining anyone or group to fly together and learn more about this hobby in the Sarasota surrounding area. Thanks

IMHO the only regulations that can be enacted locally is limiting where you can take off and land on public property.
The National Air Space starts at the tops of the blades of grass and the ONLY people who can make rules about that space is the FAA.
There are limits put in place by the FAA for certain areas and events ( Division 1 football, areas around stadiums for NFL and MLB games), prisons are asking the FAA to restrict operation near and over their facilities for security reasons, areas near where POTUS and other VIP's will be are done via NOTAMS, Flying in Class B and other controlled airspace, etc etc etc, but the case that defined that local laws held very little if any weight was when Newton MA tried to enact local laws and were promptly sues and they had their arses handed to them in Federal Court.

If you really want the full sUAV experience, test for a Part 107 license, that gets you around some of the FAA rules for notification of every airfield and helipad in a 5 mile radius of your operating area for example. I am 2.2 miles from Pine Shadows (94FL) and my Part 107 allows me to fly over my property without having to make the attempt to notify them.

City of Newton's drone ordinance was declared illegal by federal district court judge. We discuss the ruling & issues not answered.

I only have TRUST drone flying certificate, does your club require a Drone Pilot License? or do they accept leisure flyers as well?
Any local SWFL folks remaining here, flying together?
