Perfect number of participants. Chris was able to help all of us without too much confusion. I was the least experienced but learned so much from Chris and the other drone pilots. Chris was well organized... locations were great... food was excellent and the hotels were very comfortable.

I had been planning a similar trip for almost 2 years to the Faroe Islands & was excited to join Chris and other Drone Pro Academy students to hit the same spots I had been planning. I was happy to get some personal coaching on my shooting style, dialing in my settings, & walking me through the best angles & paths for my shots. I built some good friendships with other drone pilots & we shared tips and ideas and had a great time together shooting, joking, traveling, hiking & having fun. It made the trip so much better! Chris even took some extra time to go get a shot that was not on the travel plans when we had some extra time & helped me take advantage of the light to get a really great shot I had been dying to get. One day when we were rained out we spent the day editing and doing FPV drills. I was later able to fly a small slot canyon confidently as a result and got some good footage of that run.

The Utah Expedition is my second drone trip with Chris. Just like Scotland, Chris covered every base making the entire trip a breeze. If you want a full service, exceptional sights, awesome droning experience, sign up with Drone Pro Academy and have the time of your life!

Chris is an incredible host/guide and planner. Our days were very well mapped out, but also flexible enough to meet everyone's needs. The trip itself was nothing short of epic. If you fly drones the amount of flying time you will get is off the charts and the places you fly will literally blow your mind. If you also fly FPV you can and will learn a lot from Chris. He is very congenial and a great teacher and mentor type of person. This trip was well worth the money and the time to be a part of. If you don't do this, you will regret it! I promise.

If you are looking to step out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself to learn different techniques from one of the most experienced drone pilots, Chris Newman, you need to check out Drone Academy’s excursions. I went to Scotland not really expecting a lot, but came back with an arsenal of moves I plan to incorporate in my shot list for my drone service provider business. The flying locations were amazing from wild coastlines, rolling valleys with beautiful lochs, castles, lush forests, trains and towering mountains. We even had time for sightseeing. With the encouragement of fellow travelers I tried foods I typically would have avoided and enjoyed them. For a drone excursion this trip ranks high! An opportunity of a lifetime! I would recommend it to anyone seeking to advance their drone skills under Chris’ tutelage. As an added bonus I walked away making lifetime friends I will always treasure.

For anyone who is seeking an amazing experience in one of Europe’s most beautiful countries, then you must attend this drone excursion to Scotland! The scenery was beautiful, friendships we made were great, and flying our drones was the icing on the cake! I cannot recommend this adventure enough!
