Who makes Line of Sight, and how
Line of Sight at bgobeyond.co.uk is the UK reference for the buyer choosing between drone classes and the flyer learning to use one well.
Which drone, and why
Where this domain comes from
Line of Sight continues the theme this domain carried from 2017 to 2025: hobby drones (consumer multirotor aircraft flown for recreation, camera work and racing) in the UK.
From 2017 to 2025 this domain was the home of "bgobeyond.co.uk", run by its original owner. The domain was acquired in 2026 and Line of Sight is now an independent publication on the same theme, with no relation to the previous owner.
Line of Sight did not exist before 2026; the years above belong to the former site, not to this one.
What this domain was
This domain carried a hobby drone site for a decade, from 2017 to 2026. The archive holds 202 captures across 87 distinct paths, and the Wayback record shows steady activity through 2020 with a peak of 36 distinct captures in 2024. Historically, 406 referring domains sent 2740 links to the address, of which 161 domains and 206 links still register as fresh. The pages served drone product reviews, a video library and a shop for a UK audience of recreational flyers and model enthusiasts.

Why this subject, and why here
Consumer drones have moved from a specialist hobby into a mainstream purchase. A UK buyer now faces a crowded field of multirotor aircraft at every price point, from sub 100 pound toy class to 500 pound camera rigs, each with its own sensor, range and battery life. The rules governing where and how they may fly have tightened in the same window. A flyer who can name the differences between a beginner quad and a cinematic platform, and who knows which CAA registration applies before the first takeoff, has an edge that a generic search result rarely gives.
Line of Sight is a new, independent publication that arrived at this address in 2026. It stands for a single promise: to give a UK private buyer or flyer a clear, ordered reference for choosing between drone classes, understanding what each part does, and learning to fly one well, from the first hover to advanced camera work. Nothing is sold here. The site is a reading reference, and every page is written to answer a specific question a flyer actually asks before or during a purchase.
This site will not carry the former brand name, will not reference the single product that once defined this address, and will not present itself as a continuation of any earlier owner or project. It will not run a shop, a cart or any transaction. It will not adopt the generic link selling or third party hardware group associations that the domain record still carries. The topic of hobby drones is inherited. The identity is not.
Sources, method and corrections
Every number on a page comes from a named source: a CAA publication, a manufacturer specification sheet, or a dated archive capture of this domain. A figure does not appear until its source is logged in the site registry, and the source is printed on the page beside the claim. Where a number is an estimate or a range, the page says so in the same sentence. No figure is carried forward from one edition to the next without a fresh check against the source.
Pages are drafted against a fixed structure: the question the reader arrives with, the answer in plain terms, and the supporting detail. Each draft is read back against the audience definition before it is published. Corrections land in the next edition. The page that carries the error is updated in place, and the correction is noted on that page with the date it was applied.
Corrections are applied in the next build.
What you find now, and what comes next
The sections below are the eight areas the publication covers, each with a short description of what a reader will find there.
The full plan is 53 pages: 11 core pages are published now and 42 outer pages are scheduled over the following 6 months, running from August 2026 to January 2027. A sourced figures file will sit alongside the content once the outer pages are in place.
