About Me:

I am a retired man who has been flying RC planes for a number of years. I have not flown for over 12 months due to health issues . I wanted a hobby that I could do around our property, so I saw and decided to get into multi rotors


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I did some research into Walkera QR350, but waited until the 350Pro came out and purchased one. My son (46) who lives with us has now also bought the same. I am using an SJ4000 camera, beautiful pictures. My son uses a Mobius, which also has a beautiful picture. We have posted Utube videos of our flying and I will forward them on.
