The Drone Club meets the fourth Monday evening of each month from 7 to 8 p.m. (see the October exception below) in Room 104 at the Creative Arts Technology Center. We have no dues, and attendance is open for any Robson resident who is interested in anything that is drone related, regardless of what they own or understand but have a desire to learn more about. We encourage all attendees to join our free membership in Groups.io at groups.io/g/rrdroneclub and to visit our website robsontech.club/the-case-of-a-beginner-drone.

Our last presentation was focused on “Presenting What Is Necessary for a Robson Recreational Pilot to Ensure All the Necessary Preparations Have Been Completed Before an Actual Drone Flight.”

We had a good group of Robson attendees who interacted during the Drone Club presentation with the following: equipment, precheck, flight plan, misc., planning, and next month.

Please note: There will be a drawing for a DJI Mini Drone with the best chance to win by attending our October and November meetings. (More details will be provided at each monthly meeting.)

Our next meeting will be held on Monday, Oct. 23, starting at 6:30 p.m. (please note the new time) in Room 104 at the Creative Arts and Technology Center, 9404 Ed Robson Blvd., where we will be participating in a “Fly In” contest and be judged by a local representative of the FAA.

We hope to see everyone there.
