Kingwood here, usually fly at various parks around Lake Houston. Would love to meet up with other flyers in the area.
 
Did You work on Moose Bird Lee?
 
I just purchased the DJI P3 and I'm near Clear Lake, NASA. I'm a beginner and definitely need some advice from the experts here around Houston. Let me know when will be your next meet-up (any where near Houston) & I'll try to join and learn :)

A newbie question... any troubles flying in public parks? Can anybody name a few good places for a noob to practice flying?
 
Clear Lake here also! And also a beginner. Got my P3P about 2 days ago. Had about 6 flights so far. I am in Middlebrook and there is a small park right across from my house....easy access.

Hi, I'm in Tomball.

I'm curious if there are any groups established which educate and/or tour around the NW or SW Houston area flying their copters. I'd be interested.
 
My jeep club is doing a breast cancer fund raiser this Saturday. I may go out there in the afternoon though
 
I really don't know how long it will last. These things can be an all day event
 
Im in League City. i fly everyday I get a chance. Professional photographer so I am really working on my skills flying and capturing great photos. Anyone interested in flying around here?

Pearland here also. I have the P3 and the Inspire. Let me know when you want to get together.

Hey guys, so I live in Houston, and I lugged my Phantom all the way to Africa (Ivory Coast) and then on a helicopter to this offshore "Platform" (not really a platform, because it's a converted tanker called and FPSO). So here is the result. I made this video, then my company asked me to "clean it up" so they could put it on their website. The second video is a combo of GoPro (with Feiyutech G3) and Phantom.

Enjoy! I plan to trade my P2 for P3 as soon as I get back home!
 
By the way, just for your information, the shot of the offloading tanker as it is approaching the FPSO is approximately 4500 ft away from where I was standing on the FPSO. I guess out here in the ocean, there is not much interference. Also things look A LOT closer than they really are. I lost signal at 4500 ft right before I reached the tanker and then it went into autopilot and came home. The opening shot is of the Phantom coming home.
