    UK Adding DJI Mavic Pro to existing CAA PFAW?

    Mmm, it looks graded to me...

    UK EASA Regulations.

    As i said on another post, nothing to do with the EU. I believe we will have compulsory registration and a limited ability to fly to those without a PfAW. If anything, I welcome that as it is good for the industry and that they make sure some eejits get caught for doing silly stuff.

    UK Taking Off From Metal Structures

    I was taking off from 3-story carpark this weekend for an advertising job and had to take off on Atti and set back to P-GPS once I cleared the metal lamposts (15metres). No big issues apart from side winds when landing :eek:

    EASA about to fu** things up... WARNING!!

    MMm. Agree that this is not new and that the whole thing will take years and by that time UAVs will be called something else. Disagree on the european side. CAA(local NAA) can do anything re: UAVs irrespective of European legislation. It will make no difference even if we Brexit.

    DJI Mavic released

    Hovering ability is impressive. it looked like it was hanging from a thread. As a smaller platform that the I1Pro, it is a very able *replacement* of a P3/4. Wonder if ND filters will fit as the lens diameter seems even smaller than the P3/4 .. Portability and agility + better flight times are...

    Flying 1.5 miles from City Airport (EGLC) - London

    It is all looking like we will be joining the Irish and American pilots there considering the level of ignorance on drone use. I was at Maplin last week buying *overpriced* usb cables and found that they were advertising a Phantom 4. The guy at the till looked and me and said: - This is the...

    Another contest to see how many Air Navigation Order violations he can score.... The crossing of the Thames into the O2 is surely about 500m+ Apparently is this guy: HD : Videos by Harry Dwyer

    Flying over EGR160 at night ... (!)

    EGR160 is one of the 3 designated restricted areas and where he was flying it was close to the Olympic village and City Airport. No insurance/PfAW and flying at night... :eek:
