Melbourne here. Got a pro recently. Love it!! Flying in parks and bush lands in outer suburbs. Heading down great ocean road next fine day on a weekend. Any more pilots in eastern Melbourne. Cheers
Melbourne as well.
I've just recently got a P3A. Love flying it. I was out for about my 4th or 5th day flying yesterday and had a...different experience.
I was down at Brighton beach, next to the Yacht club and had a woman come up and advise I couldn't fly there, and Bayside council had outlawed it from parks. She also handed me a copy of the CASA flyer. There wasn't a beach there, and only a car park which I had only flown over to get to the ocean.
I've been doing a bit of research this morning and found that the Bayside council prohibited the use of Remote Aircraft over Municipal reserves, but looking up a list of municipal reserves, this area does not appear to be covered, and given I wasn't over a "populous" area, I'm wondering if this woman was correct. I've gotten some amazing footage over the water down in Black Rock, so I'm hoping i'm in the right here.
For all you others in Melbourne - Where do you prefer to fly?

Must be a popular spot for UAV flying if this woman just happened to have a CASA leafletin her back pocket lol
I'd be calling local council and asking for clarification on the area.

Part 101 Amendments - Cutting red tape for remotely piloted aircraft | Civil Aviation Safety Authority
Autonomous flight is prohibited under the amendments. CASA is still developing suitable regulations for autonomous flight. However, there is scope for CASA to approve autonomous flight on a case-by-case basis. Does this mean legally i cant use waypoints?
As it was discussed in a Facebook group, it not autonomous flight if you can override the flight between waypoints. Autonomous flights would be if pilot had not control over the drone.
