With this type of incidents, the rules for flying drones will get worst everyday. Next firmware will limit you to your backyard if this morons keep flying at airports.
Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten about that. I actually saw that warning message once. I was outside the 5 Mike mark but it popped up for some reason. Was something about recommending a 300 foot altitude limit or something like that.to be technically accurate - the motors cannot be started within a 1.5 Mile radius, then from 1.5 to 5 miles there are altitude limits.
By the way.. I live about 30 miles from a small airport and I see planes flying over my house all the time that seem like flying too low. Just to be sure, I downloaded an app call FlightRadar24 (Paid-version) and you can spot in real time all the planes in you area with details like distance from you, altitude, speed, etc. I found out that many have passed over my home at an altitude of about 500 to 600 feet. I keep my P3P limited to 400 ft anyway but wow...
Just purchased the app. Awesome! Will help me keep track of the LAPD helicoptor amongst other things.
Where are you? I am in Palos Verdes. I see both planes and helicopters every day flying along the coastline at way below 400' AGL.
