Is it just me or is this type of behavior from the nut bags seems to be escalating? I think it may be time to invest in a small inexpensive action camera and a head mount to hold it. It is quickly becoming like dash cams in Russia...necessary for a legal defense from the plague of idiots.
As for the folks lamenting the location of the video, I think the authors were attempting to only hover at low altitude in order to demonstrate the stability of the P3, not go for a full flight. No traffic on the street...I guess I don't see what the major problem is. I certainly wouldn't do this with my X5C-1 (since it's kinda all over the place), but a P3 is so stable in hover, I don't get the angst.
Agreed on raising altitude as soon as that belligerent bast**d walked up though. You just KNOW he was standing there waiting for them to take off before he decided to put that dangerous, missile-toting spycopter in it's place. With the guy parading around drunk and shirtless in public, rocking his clear jelly sandals, not likely these guys will be reimbursed for the damage. Clearly what income this idiot has goes straight to alcohol ingestion.
I would offer this varying viewpoint. You have a limited area of Earth in which to allow your children to play outside. Some guy is out flying a drone, with all the inherent risks of losing control associated with it, and you become concerned for your child's well being.
In such an environment, you have NO control over events leading to the possible crash of a 3+lb craft flying around such a population dense area.
I would be upset. However, I would NOT physically confront the pilot. Instead, I would ask the local law enforcement to address the issue as well as the always present board of directors for a given community in such an area. Otherwise known as an HOA or some such.
