I may have done a silly thing, Although I haven't actually got my Phantom yet I did reach out via email to someone at Derby council to find out their rules on flying in the various country parks in Derbyshire.
Just received an email back to say due to certain by-laws no r/c flying is allowed in any on their Country parks. Very short and to the point.
Now as I have seen other videos of people flying in these parks I would have gone and flown there and could of pleaded my ignorance but now I have stitched myself up by doing the right thing it seems lol.
Not sure whether to try to ask permission for any other places I have planned or just fly safely hoping there are no hidden rules that I may break ?
One of the parks is Elvaston country park and many many years ago they held the national competition for radio controlled models there in 1964 which is a pity if they no longer allow flying (random Google search brought it up).
