on the BBC midday news today was a report about the increasing number of Drones, first showing nice panoramic views then showing what goes wrong, first an empty football field and a drone crashing into a goal post, next a drone crashing into a tree, next a pilot took a photo of a fixed wing rc plane about 80 mts away, then a reporter inside a glass window looking out at a Phantom next was a shot from the phantom, all I could see was a refection of the sky on the glass???
police are looking into 200 reports of invasion of privacy so now to my question
what did I do illegal during this flight .
I took off from my back lawn flew over the hedge above two empty fields, flew round and landed back on my lawn, my neighbors either side of my house have no problem with it but the guy in the thatched house over the road was shouting "That's illegal" I was no closer to him on takeoff and landing than 40-50 mtrs, he doesn't have a pc all he knows it what he reads in the paper and on TV, silly old so&so, I've also seen him giving me the finger a few weeks ago during a similar flight.
I've been building quads and tris for a few years now with no problem from him or anybody else but now because I've got a PHANTOM !! that all the press show in their reports he's jumping on the band wagon
I was flying fpv and as you see my wife as always was my spotter.
just watched Nickyb's video and as I first saw it on tv I must have missed the bit where you could see the reporter inside
