Didn't see anyone from Georgia checking in yet.

Looks like there are two of us, at least.

3 of us! Hello all.

Now 4 of us.  I am in E Cobb.  

And maybe 5 if I decide to pull the trigger on an Inspire ! Hartwell Ga. here !

Now 5 (for only a few days) then I'm using the drone while I travel for 6-12 months.

Still getting my account set up. But I'm in Decatur/Atlanta area with Mavic.

I've heard of some people flying at piedmont early morning before the park gets busy.  no one wants drones buzzing over there head while enjoying the park.

Outside of piedmont park is almost impossible and restricted. Download the FAA app B4U Fly and it'll show pretty much all of midtown and downtown is a no-fly zone. Largely do in part to all the hospitals, police stations, building towers, with heliports and not to mention the airports. Don't forget gust of wind in between buidlings, wifi amd radio signal interfernce from builds and other structures...

Thanks devGOD for the detailed answer. I agree but I still doubt the legal accuracy of FAA's B4UFly App. Basically, every hotel helipad qualifies for a full 5-mile no-fly zone, which I think is BS. A helipad isn't an airport, and the 5-mile rule should only apply to those. I guess helipads call for extended caution and avoidance, but do not make flights impossible. Unless, of course, someone has declared an area a no-fly-zone.

Atlanta Lavista Park area here. Just bought a Mavic Air and looking to connect with others to learn what I'm doing. :-)

Alpharetta/Milton area (North Atlanta). New owner of DJI Spark. Also I have flown at Piedmont Park early mornings before noon. Also have flown at Webb Bridge Park.

My Phantom will be arriving tomorrow. I live in Flowery Branch.
