    NFZ or not...

    I fly beta for them already, in a non paid role, I would not be working for them. And most definitely not being paid if i did fly. It would be purely for there marketing. Still trying to get clarification from the CAA again... But i trust your opinion to be as correct as it can be without being...

    NFZ or not...

    I understood that, but it is very specific what they need to do, film themselves while doing action sports, as a means to marketing the product they manufacture... Just wish i could get a straight answer...

    NFZ or not...

    How do you see what i commented on though...??? I asked and just got, refer to the fact sheet, and the fact sheet doesn't make it very clear... It is promotional material the company wants to film, but i see that as marketing, and as they own the drone, the drone is operated by them and the film...

    NFZ or not...

    I can also forward the email if needed... Just very confusing as to what is deemed as "promotional material" and if this would apply... If it does, then permission is not needed, if it doesn't, then it clearly is, but the wording, as given says not...

    NFZ or not...

    On a slightly different note, and nothing to do with DJI, but an opinion would be greatly received, i have been beta testing for a different company, they are already selling now, but we want to fly in the UK for something different... We are NOT in a no fly zone, so no issues there, but the...

    My first accident

    If there is ever any kids near where i am, i won't even contemplate landing, i always chose somewhere to take off that is quite, unfortunately, that is not always the case when landing, as people are of an inquisitive nature...! And i will always ask whoever is around to ensure they are holding...

    NFZ or not...

    Just to finish this thread, i have had contact with a wonderful guy at the NATS department, he was very quick with his replies and additional questions, we do NOT need permission, but said it was extremely helpful that we had contacted them anyway, and that they will ensure a NOTAM is issued by...

    NFZ or not...

    Thank you, that actually makes sense, but we definitely won't be above treelike, it is a cable park so we fly 5 metres above cable which is about 15m... Are you actually saying that we wouldn't need permission anyway...? I fully intend to follow your advice and stay in contact, and we will only...

    NFZ or not...

    Kind of confusing, as the height for NFZ's are not always what they seem, like how DJI explain them, no fly completely in a certain distance then getting higher after a certain distance, but that is generic for everyone... We are actually below the surrounding tree line with were we need to...

    I reproduced the drop voltage of death (with screenshots)

    Not a cheap option, but a sensible option for discharge is what i use. http://www.aeroeye.co.uk/aero3d/home/42-m100.html Really handy to have anyway and i can charge iPads, iPhones, whatever i happen to have with me to drain to 50% ;)
