No probs Gary. The offer stands. Would love to meet up if you have time. PS - Just to entice you, this is my place: Cheers!

Cool, so maybe I don't have to do another flight assessment each year. That's the impression I got. So it's £125 for renewal (plus the £113 for the CAA of course).

I used it with Spektrum equipment before and had no problems but have read posts about interference with the Phantom rx.

Yes. Both log book and flight test. Anyone can fake a log book. The RPQ-S seems a much more rigorous test, probably because of the military background of the staff. I for one like the idea. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Hey. I believe it's £250 a year which includes another flight assessment. That's how they measure competency and currency. The good thing is that I could add another DJI S800 ( my test vehicle) to the fleet and that wouldn't require a retest as its the same system (system being airframe and FC)...

Ha! Beat me too it! Yes Gary, if you need a place to stay my place is yours. More than welcome. I'm not far from ResourceUAS. FYI: This area has its own weather pattern that magically doesn't show up on weather reports. Good luck with it. They're a great bunch. Sent from my iPhone using...

It was a pleasure Elliot! Great to have someone who speaks the language (Drone English, Dronglish?!). My house is your house. See you in the future. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Of course I'm not okay with it. I think a good maintenance schedule and knowledge of your system is enough for sub 20kg. Unless they're planning to actually test each component, which they won't, then it's pointless. If they just look at your system and say 'that's okay' then what's the point...

Silly questions are welcome! We all have them. They are independent from each other. OSD is a graphical overlay of figures. Usually distance etc. Google glass displays writing on the lens (OSD) and your eyes are the FPV. FPV is video and the OSD is a HUD. Does that even make sense? Sent...

Really? Sounds reversed to me. Surely a typo? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

It's very unlike me to be right! It'll be great to meet you guys finally! I'll be at the edge of the ring watching the fight and laughing. See you there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

I think that's only above 20kg at present. I'll ask on Wednesday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Dude, don't open old posts unless you're adding more information. Have you had a problem with DJI yourself?

Are you feeling okay? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

And this is another UK licensing organisation: http://www.resource-uas.co.uk/ They also work in the industry too providing search and rescue for the services and aerial photography. Look at section 3 of CAP 722 for a detailed explanation. The certification process is quite easy for most...

I've just finished the RPQ-S ground school and flight assessment and loved it. Very helpful guys. Only 6 per class at the moment which is nice so lots of one to one tuition. You also don't need an operations manual for the flight test, just some flight reference cards and tech specs. Excellent...

Check your centre of gravity. As said it will drift with the wind. If it drifts in ATTI mode it will drift even more in manual. And check you've got no trim on, unlikely if all okay in GPS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Define 'near'? You forgot flying OVER people/public and flying over crowds. They're my pet hates. In the UK you can fly up to 50m (horizontally) from a crowd of 1000 people. And must have permission of landowner for take-off and landing area. Flying near and over people is fine if they have...

Which camera?
