≪What is an aerial photography meeting? ≫ We have a simple project like "Enjoy aerial photography together!" With a Fukushima drone school instructor at a shooting spot in Fukushima prefecture. I think that everyone who usually uses drones has questions and worries about operation. We hope that you will take this opportunity to consult with a Fukushima drone school instructor, practice aerial photography, and exchange information with your friends. ≪Voice of Participants≫ ・ It was a meaningful time to interact with friends who operate drones!・ I was very anxious about my first flight, but with the support of the instructor, I enjoyed taking aerial shots!・ I am very entertained by being able to immerse myself in a common hobby through friends who share a common hobby. ◆ Fukushima Drone School 5th Anniversary Event Corner ・ DJI FPV Maneuvering Experience Corner "Why don't you fly over Mt.
