New pilot from Kent, England

[colinsmith18]

Hello there, I live in the South East of England and have been flying the Spark off and on for a few years. It's not mine, it belongs to my son but as he doesn't use it these days I've taken it over. I've done the basic UK CAA training and am considering taking the training further. However I'm lucky if I get 12 minutes flying time out of any of the batteries so there is a limit to where I can fly! Looking forward to reading through the posts on the forum and learning. I'm glad I (finally) found the forum.

Hello from Ohio, USA. Welcome to the group. That is the best time I have seen on my batteries and have 4 to take with me when I fly.

Welcome fellow Spark owner. Still have mine but haven’t flown it for a while. The weather here, as you know, is not conducive to enjoyable flying and this week doesn’t look any better. Have fun and be safe.
