Hi FPV'ers

The date is only a couple of weeks now, 28th April.

Doors open at 10:00am and we have the place till 3:00pm.

Flying is on ALL DAY LONG indoors and outdoors NON STOP. There will be a flight line in operation and the rules are as follows:

No NON flyers and spotters beyond the flight (no exceptions).
No children near the flight line unless with an adult - keep them safe please!!
No flying over spectators / behind the flight line / no flying towards the flight line.
All people flying FPV must have a spotter, there will be people available if needed.
No large helicopters / planes indoors.
It is the pilots responsibilty to check radio / video frequencies. CHECK BEFORE YOU TURN ON.
No VTX / 35mhz to be turned on unless you are on the flight line. YOU MUST CHECK WITH PILOTS FLYING / ABOUT TO FLY.
STAY SAFE AT ALL TIMES, first aid is available and the Sports Hall staff are the designated First Aiders for the event. Please report all injuries (hopefully none).

As this is an event to "help out" we are running workshops and presentations:



1: Beginners 11:00am - All the basics on FPV such as equipment, staying safe, planes, mulitrotors etc etc. - Presented by SteveW and Keukpa.
2: Intermediate 12:00pm - Things such as extending range, antenna basics, OSD's, autopilots etc. - Presented byTeamFTP, GinnerFPV and Liambaker996.
3: Advanced 1:00pm - Long range, antennas, waypoints, firmware etc. - Presented by Coyote.

These session will be ran at the times above and will be done with the projector and examples of what can be done.

There will be an FPV WORKSHOP running through the day with people on hand to help answer your questions. There will be someone there to help out!!! If you have a problem with equipment please pop it along and I am sure we shall be able to help.

Flying tuition will be availble through myself and probably others if you need it. I am also happy for people to try out the Fatshark goggles and have a seat in the plane whilst it is flying to experince FPV. There will be a simulator running to so you can try out both FPV and LOS flying.

GCollins is brings the 3D printer so you will be able to see some of his fantastic creations.

THIS IS A MUST for people who want to find out more about FPV and thanks to the above will be a very informative day!!

Postcode is DN69AS - Campsmount School.

Any problems or any other ideas for the day let me know.

Indoor precision flying?!?!?!
