Our first Lincolnshire Police #drone flights were in a field. Who would have imagined 7 years later we would be stood in a toilet using a drone to search a confined space. Might look strange but the safety & time benefits are very real. How times change. #righttoolsforthejob

A privilege to be invited to meet some of our local children and talk to them about Lincolnshire Police #drones at the Active Arena #lincoln activearena.co.uk this morning. They very quickly got to grips flying the #avata2 & loved the immersive experience. #drones forgood

A substantial result in which our Lincolnshire Police Drones #thermal camera played a pivotal role. #dronesforgood #24hourthermal .

We got our hands on the new #avata2 today & the improvement in flight & perch time, along with the impressive lower noise level is fantastic for indoor search. Of course it would be remiss of us not to check out the flip & roll function too. Lincolnshire Police #drone

A slightly different location for one of our Lincolnshire Police #drone crew today supported by Lincolnshire Police Special Constabulary 🙏 #viewfromthecrew

We learn to fly & fly to learn.
Thankfully we have “turtle mode”.

A new day & another drone pilot getting to grips with the “ #avata in the attic ”. Lincolnshire Police #drone officers getting up-skilled on #fpv . This will ensure we have situational awareness before we expose our officers to unacceptable danger. DJI

It’s getting rather warm for our Lincolnshire Police initial #psu course 🔥 They need total trust that their kit will protect them. #hotfuzz

Back for another day of #fpv #drone training. Lincolnshire Police

Anyone else looking at their watch waiting for a 2pm product launch today ? #fpv #avata2 day.

Crashes happen, it’s part of learning. The good thing is this #fpv is robust and has “TURTLE MODE”. Despite being stranded inverted, at the press of a button, it flips itself upright. Watch the video! Lincolnshire Police #flying the #avata . All clever, no damage & off we go again.

Today’s unique training venue, watch our Lincolnshire Police #drone #flying in a loft space. Filmed by a #fpv drone. This is invaluable training & allows us to develop our skills, in this old disused prison. #TrainHard with the DJI #avata

Day 2 of Lincolnshire Police initial #psu public order training. Drones allow us that unique view not seen at ground level. #dronesforgood

We are trialing “On-the-Go Charging” so our Lincolnshire Police #Drones can be charged while on the move. This eliminates the need for us to return to recharge. This saves valuable time and allows us to remain on task for longer. #FutureOfPolicing #SafeAndSecure #InnovationInProgress

Enjoyed listening to Supt Phil Vickers about his trip to #baltimore on BBC Lincolnshire this morning. It was thanks to LEDA Bend & Oregon #police in the #USA we started using #FPV #drones . This week we completed a loft search for a wanted suspect, keeping Lincolnshire Police officers safe.

New Podcast has just landed! We have added the Crime Prevention Radio Show 28/02/24 with Special Guest: Lincs Police Chief Drone Pilot Kevin Taylor Lincolnshire Police Drones LCR FM 103.6

A massive thanks to all our followers for the interaction on the #AprilFoolsDay2024 post. To keep it professional & allow the channel to focus on the transparency of our Police #drone use, searching for missing people & denying criminals, the post is now deleted. 🙏 all.

High Risk Missing Person located by our Lincolnshire Police #drone in the early hours of this morning. Officers guided in and misper safeguarded. Great #teamwork Lincoln Police Lincolnshire PoliceFCR

Kit checks complete & prepared for the night ahead. We are expecting it could well be a busy one for our Lincolnshire Police colleagues across the county. Lincolnshire PoliceFCR
