West-sussex, near Ditchling. but the problem with around Ditchling is there is a military/private plane flight zone. 10 meter plane vs easystar plane...no thank you. ha
Felix
Wow, your a 5 min drive from me. If your near Ditchling, you must know Downlands Community School right? Well that's where I go. Anyway I've found you can pick any field and as long as no one is around you're fine. Although I'm lucky enough to have a 4-acre field at the bottom of my garden, which is fine for FPV. Then another one a 1 min walk away which is about 10 acres.
But yeah, you can fly pretty much anywhere around here for FPV.
Sheldon
Your not a million miles from me either - perhaps we should all meet up at some point.
John
Good idea John. Once my new goggles turn up y'all can have a go on my wing. :D
Cool
Have you ordered them yet Sheldon?
I still haven't test flown the Raven with FPV gear on it - May give it a go this weekend , just have to range check it ect. If I get a chance I will post the video up.
John
Well you could pop round 'ere on Saturday/Sunday if you wanted some help etc...
The goggles are all ordered. I ordered them from the actual suppliers which saved me £45 from buying them here. But I spent about 4 hours on the internet to get that lol. But that price even includes 3-4 day DHL delivery from China!
Sheldon
I could pop over Sunday if the weather is any good.
John
Sure. Bring the Raven and I'll dust off my Raven.
Well, my Raven is a 50 size heli lol but still fun.
Wow didn't realise some many ppl live near me and FPV. :) it's great! Yeah as soon as I get my build done ( month or two) we should go have a flying.
Felix, same here. I thought the closest bit of FPV civilisation was Owen the Stealthwing man over in Portsmouth.
We need a mini meet :)
