This probably shows my novice skills but at 70/80m up people look like ants so not much to see from my point besides the landscape and horizon [emoji327]

Hahah I'm from the UK too I just tell them to get lost no one owns the airspace.Hi guys, I'm a newbie and loving my P3A. How is it best to handle a person who does not want you to fly in "their" space? I was flying in a large park in the UK with not many people and was asked by a person to please keep my bird in my space. As this was my first time ever questions I said ok and stuck pretty close to home.
Any thoughts welcome ..

True statement even a cell phone camera does more than these drones.The average Joe thinks we can Zoom the drones camera in & get detailed shots of them, like, cooking burgers!
I did resort to showing a very disgruntled couple, that were walking through park, the view on my monitor. The wife said- We look like ants!
Most people, once they see what the drone sees, seem to settle down.
Yeah I read that .. All stadiums are a big no no .. That and the queens parks and built up areas and populated areas and and and .. I wish there was an website/app that had places that you can fly !! Thanks [emoji106]

Here in the UK anything that is dangerous = Ban bloody Nanny state no wonder why many people here are depressed boring sad people.Here in the UK ALL new hobbies and sports that are a bit different seem to bring out the negative in people, I don't know if it's really that they wish they were doing it. I remember back in the 60s people here said Surfing should be banned, then Hang Gliding and Jet Skiing and kite surfing and skate boarding etc etc. just be polite and and keep your thought to yourself (even if you are biting you lip so hard it's bleeding). I suppose it's just a case of being considerate to the full, we have the media to thank for that and public liability claims. Ususally they are just 'sad *** people.
Parks and flying fields are great for planes. They fly a pattern ..do takeoffs and landings and stunts in the air. That's the main reason they fly planes. They try to perfect their skill. I think people that get quads get them for the flying camera thing. Quad pilots don'tMaybe in years to come the local councils will provide areas for us droners to fly in peace much like they've done with skate parks to keep the kids away from city centres wrecking steps and handrails, OK wishful thinking and it would need to be out in the sticks but any council that did it would get plenty of thumbs up from both camps me thinks
I keep that and a couple others in my phone. They are fun to share. Lots of videos too.I wish I could like this 100 times because there it is right there, people just don't think when they complain about 'their privacy' or peeping tom or pervert this that and the other, this is the picture we all need to print off, laminate and keep in our case for times when we get approached and accused of spying
That's an awesome video [emoji2]I keep that and a couple others in my phone. They are fun to share. Lots of videos too.
Here is my favorite...
