Admin Update!

Brian here with an important status update on DFWFPV.

DFWFPV has been growing a lot in the last 6 months.

  • We've had more opportunities to present drone information at events around the metroplex.
  • We've been getting more involved with legislation efforts, and have one of the first FRIA applications in the country to the FAA.
  • We've taped one TV show and currently have a few more things similar to this being negotiated right now.
  • We've worked hard on collaborating with other drone organizations, including the Drone Racing League.
  • We've created social media campaigns and are working through how too best build those up and share what the DFW FPV community has to offer.
  • We're frequently featured on Reaction Ent's FPTV Friday night shows.
More important than any of that, is the fact that our group continues to grow and support each other. I've lost count of how many drones have been fixed up through this group. I can't remember the last monthly meet we had that didn't have someone new to the group come out.

Thank you! You are all amazing!


So, the update:
I don't want to slow down. To help grow DFWFPV, I've asked Jonathan Smith to take on more responsibility and help run certain aspects of the group. Jonathan is a part 107 drone pilot and videographer. He has been instrumental in offering his time and resources for most of our youtube presence. He will be featured on a prominent Youtube show, TakingOff, by the end of the year discussing commercial drone operations. He is also expected to soon be an FAA Safety Team representative.

Jonathan and I will be working together on how we can enhance our monthly meets, bring in more group events, explore opportunities with other vendors and groups, and expand our social media presence.

If you'd like to reach out to Jonathan, ping him at the links below!
