    The new EASA Drone Regulations are now in force in the UK. If you're asking where can I fly my drone under the new rules, then this video will explain what restrictions and permissions you have under the new rules, including self build and FPV drones. If you're asking 'where can I fly my drone' or 'can I fly my drone at the beach' then this will explain where you can fly and how to find more places to fly. I explain how Article 16 under Flying Club membership gives you more rights and how the A2CofC will also help you fly in many more new locations. I also describe the DroneScene.co.uk site on how to explore and discover more places to fly in the UK.
    There are many tricks and tips you can use to fly in more places under the new rules, so make the most of them and get flying....

      Like yourself I live in the countryside, I asked the farmers years ago if they objected to myself if I flew over their land i hold a pfco operating licence so ok for now , not 1 farmer objected, as a result of lockdown 1, I caught a fly tipper dumping his mess across the entrance to a farmers field.

      Do you still have your phantom? You should do a review of a 4 or 5 year old phantom against say the Mini 2 or air 2

      @lindsayheyes925 Před 3 lety +10

      @@stussyhuff I've found illegal metal detectorists, fly campers and poachers - and that helps me get permissions from their neighbours.
      I asked the local church, which usca beautiful subject. They said yes and asked could I help the Church Warden check the roof after the next storm (he's a bit long in the tooth to climb up that high). They have less than a dozen in their congregation on a Sunday, so I'm not putting a professional out of a job, and I can donate some footage for their website while I'm at it, which might attract a few more to their community. I am sure it will win our community friends too, and open up some great locations for videography around the diocese.

    Hi Ian I can vouch for the UAVHUB A2CofC course. I have just completed it. Very informative managed to get 100% in the test. I would recommend that anyone who does this course to keep doing the mock exam. I did my mock exam (the questions change every time) over 30 times just so I was very familiar with the type of questions that would be asked. The actual exam took me less than 10 minutes even thought the time frame is 75 minutes. Very good video as ever. Let’s just hope everyone with a MM(2) doesn’t wreck this for us all by being a bit daft and upsetting everyone/neighbours. Here is my thumbs up to you, again pal. 👍

    Thank you for this video and your previous one as well.

This has clarified this for me and put my mind at ease. i have prepared and taken the new test and got the number on the drone and also think I Will take the extra course as you can never learn too much.

    • @IaninLondon

    Thanks for another easy to follow and really helpful video. Good news for the congested area explanation you provided, which was my main concern here. I use my Mavic Air for filming my mtb rides, so being around people has never been to much of an issue for me as always riding away from built up area. My bigger concern was not being able to film whilst riding in parks and on beaches. Your comments suggest as can still this, as long as the parks and beaches are pretty much empty. Thanks, and keep up the great videos.

    Hi Ian, as always excellent clear explanation on these new rules and again thanks to you I’ve got a much better understanding of them , I’m only a hobby flyer but as I love my M2P and want to keep flying it and your explanation really helps, I will be adding a mini 2 in the spring but hopefully will be able to keep flying the M2P . As a PS Would really like to see a updated view on the usefulness of the DJI smart controller as to if it’s worth it now , if you ever get the time . Thanks again and all the best, stay safe.

    Nice to have a bit of positivity being pushed, well done Ian and onwards and, upwards to you and your channel for 2021.
    Personally im sticking with sub 250g but have registered and have operator and flyer ids now, gonna try make the most of it too this year.
    Hopefully remote id wont wipe out the whole lagacy status and the sub 250 freedoms.
    Also, kinda feel that with the freedom we have been given there has also been a free rope to hang ourselves with! If people are not too considerate of privacy, like you touched on, or we see some actual cases of drones harming people or crashing into property, I have a feeling they will tie up this hobby even tighter!
    But thats me hoping for the best and expecting the worst!
    Happy new year fella 🤞😃👍

    Hi Ian, Unbelievably fantastic info for beginners like me. I Got Mavic Air2, so I am waiting for your next video to find out how I can take the test from UAV HUB!!! Many Thanks, Ian.

    Hi Ian
    I’ve watched you since just a couple of hundred Subs. Still the best out there 👍🏻

    Good videos, same as yourself I have the old PfCO and have just completed my A2 CofC Cse with UAVHub. Very good Cse, well delivered and easy to follow. If you already have a PfCO you will have no trouble passing the A2 CofC, in my opinion it’s worthwhile to get it under your belt.
