New Spark Pilot, Australia

[Elfwink]

Hello everyone. My Spark just came in the door a few hours ago, and it's currently charging up at the moment. I am very excited to take it for its first flight soon.

I have a view to take this drone with me on trips around Victoria and Western Australia. I was just curious to see if people would be interested in random/fun/interesting photos from Australian landscapes. Is this something you'd like to see?

In any case, I'm just keen to give this a try.

Happy flying everyone!

Welcome to the Forum. The more pics and vids the better especially as your country is so photogenic.

And welcome, also from Melbourne. I have taken my Spark around Victoria, Western Australia, the Northern Territory, Queensland, Norfolk Island and overseas to Iceland and Italy. I am sure you will be pleased to know that I have got some great videos and stills and now that I have upgraded my TV to one of those OLED things, the results seem even better.
My first Spark is in WA somewhere around S32deg 35.03min; E115deg 46.485min, so if you are flying in that area look out for a bright yellow AC with a cracked, repaired leg. It should have my name and phone number in it!
Happy flying and remember to be patient: if you lose contact with your Spark it mostly returns home if you have set it up correctly.

Many thanks tuckers. I am not sure I'll be flying around that area, but if I do, I'll keep an eye out.

Do you have any videos or stills online?

Hi elfwink,
Thanks for the reply and happy flying. I haven't managed to get organised enough to upload videos or stills yet.
I will so keep watching the forum.
