Hello from the great white north.

[Dave A]

Just picked up my first drone today, a Spark with the fly more pkg.
I got the bug after seeing the videos my adult son shot while visiting Sri Lanka for 4 weeks last month. He was using a Mavic which was also his first drone. Amazing images. I'm only 57 years old so lots of time to really get into this hobby. I'm located in Northern Ontario so very cold and snowy here right now so will probably wait a few months to first fly the Spark.

Welcome aboard!!
Your life will change now....

Go ahead and fly in the cold, I do.
Just make sure AC, RC and battery start out warm.
I keep my flights short also but get cabin fever quickly!!

No kidding. I'm tired of the cold already. At least I have 5 weeks in Florida to look forward to come Feb. 24th. I'm in Sudbury.

Hi Dave
Enjoy your drone - Im a new user (65 yo) too. Slightly less compromised by the wet and windy winter in the UK!
For me its been fascinating learning as much as I can and flying where possible. There is a bit of a learning curve for new users but its definitely worth sticking it out. Already thinking whether I can justify / need something more beefy than Sparky!
I love the you tube videos on Sparky and other drones.

Howdy from the Mid-West.

I've taken the scenic and relaxing Snow Train from Sault Ste. Marie up to Hearst Ontario for week long snowmobile trip once.

What beautiful country you have in the bush.

The train would stop in the middle of nowhere and drop off or pickup a person that is living there.

I look forward to seeing some of your footage.

Welcome to the Forum .

Thank you, everyone, for the warm welcome. So much knowledge here.
