Don't know how good this is it won't even let me register, I follow instructions even emailed them and was told use more letter nope oh well. One pop up said use all letters next pop up said use letters and numbers.Rambo 33
Useful but few tweaks needed ...
It's a great idea. Having tried it out ( SE London area ) there are plenty of posts which are very useful. Small annoyance , when you've read a post , the map reverts back to your current location. Another useful feature would be to include the date when comments are added so that we can make a judgement on how accurate the information is likely to be still. Other than than that a great idea . The only reason I found this was because I thought of the idea as well and wanted to check first if someone had already thought of it! Annoyingly yes! LolShow less143567
Great idea, except.
This is a great idea and the app seems to work well, but as far as I can tell there have only been 9 sites marked in the whole of Australia and according to the Safe To Fly app 7 of those spots are within 5K of an airport or heliport. It would be good if this had no fly zones similar to the Safe To Fly app.Show lessGbsdfbsd
Love it but needs some help
Hell this amazing idea grow you need to be able to go to diff locations other then yoursDrewblaz2
Really good start
Good start: need to fix the resetting to current location and more contributors. The best drone app for the Uk.Tommylux
Good in Idea - Needs enhancements
Interesting - I’ve got two apps on my iPhone to try and help with these type of functions.
Hover, Drone Buddy and Drone Zones
Drone Buddy does a better job of showing no-fly zones.
Drone Zones ATTEMPTS to allow you to identify and score places to fly the quad.
Both have major weaknesses (I”m out in Las Vegas and just looking for good safe interesting places to fly)..
Few key weaknesses with Drone Zones:
1) Really wish there was an easier way to see “distance” between one place and another.
2) Need a way to get an actual address to come up
3) Need a way to push the address to a map tool (google maps / wake / etc.) so I can find out how far and directions to that location.
Bottom line, my process should be.
1) Pull up map
2) Search for locations close to where I am
3) View ratings (I like what Drone Zones does with allowing you to score based upon landing areas, view, etc.)
4) Ensure that the locations are outside of No Fly Zones
5) Pull up other Flight related data
6) Determine distance between where I am and the location both as crow flies and by drivingShow lessFourAces
Solid app but lacks content
The idea behind this app is good but it lacks content, and what content is shown is negligible in terms of its accuracy. In much the same way as any user generated content app, reviews and their star-rating should be taken with a pinch of salt.
The best addition to this app would be the requirement of including the type of drone flown to support the posted review, as not all sites are appropriate for every drone.Show lessUser name already exists
Great app, but....
I like to look around the country for new flying locations. However when I find one and read the review, upon pressing back, it defaults back to my current location, and not what I was looking at and I have to try find where I was before.
Can this be altered in the next update please?Lenny Henson
Great idea.
It would be useful if you could tap on a place in the list and be taken there on the map. I guess this would require the person adding the location to enter details somehow? Could be linked to phone map and gps?Troubleandstrife
Useless at the moment.
2 stars for the initiative, but at the moment it seems useless for me. I can only search for places to fly (using the discover feature) where my current location is! It would be nice to be able to see places where I want to go instead, but typing the place/city on the search bar doesn't allow that, it simply is a shortcut to create a point. Also a list of all the places registered would be nice. I will be adding my places and contributing, and hopefully this gets fixed and the app becomes useful. The idea is great and has all my support.Show lessjocasc133
