I thought it was about time to start a U.K group, mainly due to the time difference between us and USA, so members can discuss their issues here and hopefully get the help they require sooner? Also it possible there is someone living not far away from yourself that you could swap ideas with and get first hand help and advice with your project.

    Hi all. I need some help with my arducopter and the best way I think if I meet someone with experience and get some tips of them. I been trying to get my arducopter in the air for some time now. If anyone is willing to help I can travel anywhere in london.

    Drone talk today on Radio 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03757ck only a short clip on them...... I did a quick interview about privacy and how they will not be "covert" and will not be easy to miss sitting somewhere close by watching!

    Hi folks,

    Had a BBQ this weekend which was struggling to get going. "How can I fan the flames" I wondered. I looked over and saw my quad sitting on the lawn :D...
