Hi DJI Drone community!
It's your bro Aaron.

Several weeks ago, I had a school teacher contact my new Inspired Flyers Drone community. Her class is near the California Oregon boarder. She wanted to know if I or another drone pilot would be able to give a drone presentation to some college minded 7th and 8th graders?

Being a non driving stroke survivor I can't help but I would if I could! I mean the opportunity to positively influence young kids minds with drones. Wow! What an opportunity to be a positive influence in the world. Using drones!

Are you, or do you know of a drone pilot within reach of the Northern California Oregon boarder that would be willing to donate a drone presentation to a group of young students?

Can you help me help them?

If so, leave me a note in comments.

Thank you in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
Aaron Avila
Inspired Flyers Drone Community

Hi Aaron,
What's about you giving a video presentation, for example via Skype?
Cheers,

Good idea but I really feel there has got to be a drone pilot in the area, I just need to find them bro. But I'll keep that idea in mind.
Thanks!

Effort update. 12/5/18 9:50 AM

I just tweeted the most followed DJI Pilot and content creator Casey Neistat this on Twitter.

"@CaseyNeistat Casey, do you know a drone pilot in Northern California who would be willing to give a drone presentation to a group of 7th and 8th grade students in Northern California? Here's my DJI Forum post https://forum.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=174048&page=1&extra=#pid1670706 "

Casey has huge YouTube Subscriber reach of over 10 Million subscribers he'll probably will know someone! I figured I might get lucky and Casey might read my Tweet and help me find someone.
I think my cause is worth it, you agree?

Not that it matters, but these kids are not disabled and just want to learn about drones.

As the teacher contacted you through your Inspired Flyers facebook page, are they not expecting someone with some sort of disability to turn up and show how drones have changed their life ?
Is that not the whole point of your group ?
Also, whoever you get to go should be fully insured and registered with the FAA and preferably licenced for commercial flying, just to be on the safe side.
Hope you can find someone, as it would be a missed opportunity, but maybe you need to plan ahead a bit more before jumping in head first...

Bro! I have no clue what your negative attitude towards me is all about? Why?
If you don't like me so much, why do you even read my posts let alone take your time to leave some toxic negative comment on my thread? Why?
Oh by the way, as a survivor of a massive brain aneurysm and massive stroke, being half paralyzed and wheelchair bound I do depend totally on my amazing wife.

ADMIN PLEASE BLOCK THIS USER FROM ME! I DO NOT WANT HIM ENGAGING WITH ME AT ALL!

You come across as a petulant child, throwing a tantrum if anyone criticises you.
In what way were my comments toxic ?
I was only trying to help, by pointing out some problems with your plan.
Unless you have some way of verifying if a person is competent and insured , I would not let them anywhere near a classroom full of children with a drone. I would expect the school to do some background checks as well.
All I was saying is that you need to think about it more, as it sounded like you would just send the first person that said yes straight down there.

GO AWAY!
If you think your comment "Here is an idea for you.
Why not just do it yourself instead of asking the world and his wife to do things for you all the time ?
Implying I rely to much on my wife to much is WAY OUT OF LINE!
I am also Founder of an online stroke support group with almost 3,000 members.
If you were my member and you were treating another member like you're treating me. I would have banned you a while ago. DJI's tolerance of members like you is disappointing.
SO I ASK YOU AGAIN PLEASE STOP REPLYING AND COMMENTING ON MY THREADS!
I SAY AGAIN!
STOP!

The phrase "the world and his wife" is just a saying, meaning "everyone".
Yet again you jump to conclusions that are untrue.
Saying that you would ban me is again, just showing how over sensitive you are to anyone who has a different opinion than your own.
The irony is that this Chinese forum is not a dictatorship and everyone is free to express themselves, including me.

Just quit replying! I don't respect a word you say!
STOP!
I'M DONE WITH YOUR HARASSMENT.
You have issues!
NOW LEAVE ME ALONE!
GO BOTHER SOMEONE ELSE!
I'M DONE!

I am only trying to have a reasonable conversation with you.
If it was my child at the school and some random unknown person with a drone turned up saying "its ok Aaron sent me" as a parent I would want to know that all the safety measures were in place.
You can imagine the PR disaster if god forbid something went wrong.
