Flyboy (and girl!) Summer: August Rush "Circle C FPV" Freestyle Event

I welcome you to the ADM Flyboy (and girl!) Summer Event Series, made by pilots for pilots. We have a jam-packed Summer and Fall season planned with something for everyone, no matter how you wing it.

-Shane

We are going to introduce you to the Circle C Metropolitan Ranch, which we consider a safer environment for folks who want to fly analog FPV drones. This is an FPV-focused but not FPV-exclusive event.

• For aerial photographers, there is some scenery available for artistic composition
• This event is best suited for DJI drone pilots that can use 25MB low-latency mode, such as the DJI-FPV with HD transmission and Audience mode disabled.

Note: Please check in frequencies with Shane; the larger events warrant upkeep of channel ownership due to the dangers of knocking someone's drone out of the sky. We regularly fly drones at high speed while performing tight maneuvers at these events. Safety First.

ADM Safety First Promise
Safety is our greatest concern, and we host events in controlled areas, but accidents can happen. Checking in frequencies, announcing your drone and transmitter power-on events, and being mindful of other pilots is a requirement. Non-compliance will be considered placing event patrons at risk and may result in permanent ban from ADM or ATXFPV.org events.

ATXFPV.org Policy
Some ADM events are hosted by ATXFPV.org and are governed first by their event policy and then compensated or augmented by our own. ADM reserves the right to refuse event entry to any person at any time. Violence or violent behavior is unacceptable and will result in immediate dismissal and a permanent ban, and may result in legal consequences.
