February 12, 2020 DJI Mavic Mini CAA A2 C Of C - The ULTIMATE COMBO (Best Drone Course)
IS THE DJI MAVIC MINI THE BEST DRONE FOR COMMERCIAL DRONE PILOTS?
If you look at the new EASA / CAA Drone rules which come into force in the UK on the 1st July 2020, there are huge changes... And actually, dare we say it, they open up some incredible opportunities for everyone to be able to make money from drones without necessarily needing to have any qualifications.
However, what's going to be the best drone to take advantage of the new rules until DJI and the other drone manufacturers come out with 'EC' Compliant drones in the new EC Drone Categories (such as the C1 and C2 categories)?
We think we may have the answer... And it's smaller and cheaper than you might expect - a round of applause please, to the DJI Mavic Mini Drone and the CAA A2 C of C ( A2 Certificate of Competency ) qualification!

February 08, 2020 CAA DRONE CHARGES FOR 2020/21 ARE HERE HAVE YOUR SAY
The CAA proposed charges for drone operators are available now in the document here:
https://consultations.caa.co.uk/finan...
It's worth a look and you can find the proposed scheme of charges for the upcoming fiscal year on pages 21-25.
On the whole, I'd say they're actually not too drastic in terms of increases/changes (although far from what we'd all like to be paying, for sure)!
If you want to have your say about the proposals, use the link below to give the CAA your thoughts BEFORE midnight on the 10th February 2020!

February 06, 2020 WHY DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER TO FLY THE MAVIC MINI ON 1st JULY (Max Takeoff Mass)
IS THE DJI MAVIC MINI 'BEACH BODY READY' OR DOES IT NEED TO GO ON A DIET BEFORE THE 1ST JULY 2020?
The DJI Mavic Mini, in particular, is currently exempt from the requirement for its operator to complete the CAA Drone Registration (DMARES), in the UK... At the moment... BUT, this changes on the 1st July 2020.
WHY THOUGH? We keep getting asked this question because it's '249g, so it's under to weight'... And here lies the difference - the aircraft can lift at 249g BUT it's MAXIMUM TAKEOFF WEIGHT os over 249g.
So what does this mean?
We take a look at these questions in this video...

February 04, 2020 CAA PfCO ApplicationRenewal CUTOFF DATE (GVC WILL BE KING)
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR A CAA PfCO AFTER 30th JUNE 2020!!!
We have had confirmation from the CAA today that they will NOT BE ACCEPTING NQE RECOMMENDATIONS for the award of a PfCO AFTER the 1st July 2020. This means that anyone who hasn't completed their NQE training yet (and isn't training with a new CAA RAE - more on that in a couple of days! ;) ), OR anyone who lets their PfCO lapse and isn't in possession of an RAE certificate, will NOT be able to get an initial issue of a PfCO or renew their PfCO if it lapses...
So, if you are in the process of completing your PfCO and are worried about running out of time, give the UAVHUB Team a shout and see how we can help and if you have a PfCO - make sure you KEEP IT VALID!

February 02, 2020 CAA GVC VS PfCO SHOWDOWN (Can PfCO Holders Join A GVC Or Can GVC Holders Join A PfCO)
IF YOU'VE GOT A PfCO, CAN YOU JOIN SOMEONE's GVC?
IF YOU'VE GOT A GVC, CAN YOU JOIN SOMEONE'S PfCO?
We've finally had confirmation from the CAA surrounding the question of whether people who have (or have had) a PfCO can join a GVC... Or will you have to do the GVC Course?
Conversely, if you've completed a GVC Course and have an RAE Recommendation, will you be able to join someone's PfCO if they have one and have decided to keep renewing that and stay in that system?
We take a look at these questions in this video...

January 31, 2020 Hobby And FPV Model Flying In The UK Is DEAD (THANKS EASA)
Have the EASA Drone Rules, which the CAA are adopting on 1st July 2020, KILLED Hobby and FPV flying in the UK?
As most people are now hopefully aware, the drone regulations in the UK are changing on the 1st July 2020... But, do the new rules allow hobby and recreational drone and model aircraft pilots to continue enjoying flying or do they totally destroy the opportunities to enjoy this fantastic hobby?
Will FPV even be allowed under the new system? :S
Today's video has the answers! :)

January 30, 2020 To RENEW Or Not To RENEW GAME OVER For The PfCO (CAA PfCO Renewal Update)
To Renew your PfCO or not?!?
The CAA Drone regulations are changing on 1st July 2020 and we're getting an increasing number of enquiries each day with people asking 'What do I do, my PfCO stops being valid on 1st July'... 'How can the CAA cancel my PfCO on the 1st July, it cost me a fortune to get!' and 'is it worth me renewing my PfCO or completing my PfCO Course'?
So, in today's video, we dive on in and take a look at the future of the PfCO and why it is (or isn't) worth renewing your PfCO and KEEPING IT VALID beyond 1st July 2020, when the new EASA Drone Rules are adopted by the UK CAA.
