Hello Toronto - I’m in Windsor. I would suggest that you check out Radio Control clubs located in the Toronto area. I belong to the Sun Parlor Radio Control club in Windsor. We have an airfield with two runways, separate area for drones, monthly meetings, flyins and a lot of ‘old goats’ that have been flying for years. A great place to ask questions and learn from other people.
Also, check out MAAC (Model Aeronautics Association of Canada). Sun Parlor requires membership in MAAC before becoming a Sun Parlor member. MAAC will provide info on flying clubs in your area, changes to the Canadian law in June, etc.
You Tube is your friend – so much information. Check out Painless360, Drone Camps, 51 drones, etc.
Finally, check out Kijiji for used DJI products in Toronto. I bought non-flying Phantom2 for $50 and got it in the air after correcting calibration errors. Currently flying it in Florida and it works great. There is some risk in purchasing a used drone so make sure seller can demonstrate everything works.
I currently have 4 drones – watch out for getting ‘bit by the bug’.
