This morning had clear blue skies, no wind and bright sunshine. I took the Phantom for a flight over my forest and then up the short street I live on. 200 foot altitude. I swung a U turn and returned to home quickly to get some pictures of a fox that was in my back lawn. When I landed an angry neighbor came a knocking. He was quite irate. Apparently when I made my U-turn I flew over his house. He was his back deck enjoying the same sunshine I was.
After 5 minutes I had him calmed down. I showed him the drone, explained how it works and that at 200 feet and going full forward I was not not spying on him. I even showed him my flight log and where I had and had not taken pictures. Before he left he was considering buying a Phantom.
I think the media is painting the wrong picture of Drones. Oh well.
