Feel like a free small island getaway on me ? Travel, Accommodation and food.
Its a very unclear/unpopular and controversial set of rules governing commercial uav for profit and I am very mindful of this so I can offer someone close enough to me in Scotland the following:
Ferry travel for your car and two passengers from Ardrossan ferry terminal to the Isle of Arran and back again the following day.
1 night in a four star luxury hotel on the seafront including full Scottish breakfast for two.
Dinner for two at a upmarket bistro at your hotel. Drinks excluded !
This should cover the basic expenses for a day on the beautiful Isle of Arran on the West coast of Scotland.
What I am wanting you to do is come fly your FPV aircraft / tricopter over a stunning old building and to provide me with some high resolution stills and some quality video of the building from an aerial perspective.
I can't pay you other than cover your expenses mentioned above but if this sounds like something that you would like to do and you have the equipment and the time let me know by private message and we could arrange something.
It shouldn't take longer than an hour or two of your time and the rest of your stay can be yours to explore or I could point you in the direction of an excellent slope soaring site! (Or a very nice pub.)
Regards,
Tox
(I'm thinking within the next three weeks, preferably before the 21st of June.)
Wow what an offer !
Damn, I'm off to Mull in a weeks time. Will that do instead? ;D
Current camera ship still not had it's maiden flight yet, and no capability for hi-def stills.
Cracking offer tox. I hope you get some takers. Have you moved? Western Isles?
If all else fails there's Cyberhawk Innovations based in Livingston. They're commercial though. $$$$$$$$
@ Electrotor - Havent moved, same place still but Western Isles is vague enough in case of any Internet predators that wanna groom or predate on me :D
Offer still stands though for anyone close enough......

hey TOX do you know skipness because me and psychosaffa sometimes do fpv there right besides the skippy ferry? :D only on holidays or weekends. :ohyeah:
To quote Billy Connolly Western Isles sounds "more windswept and interesting". But in this case they certainly are - a trifle windy at times (but not as much as Shetland where Force 8 is a calm day) and certainly very photogenic.

Yeah, went on a day trip mission and checked out the castle which I enjoyed. Got a good aerial view from the rooftop and had a pleasant lunch in the small restaurant in the garden. Nice place to fly I would imagine, some good vids too if you could fly over the castle. Can you legally do that there ? I've seen a video of fpv over a castle but that was in Germany where I guess laws differ from ours...
Once I get the time to set up my tri and if you head to Skipness again let me know, I would really like to see other setups...
