I've had my P3P for around 4 months now and I noticed after flying many times by myself that I am generally very calm and everything is smooth as hell. But when I show people what I am doing they all freak out like holy crapy this thing is amazing! Obviously I showboat it because it truly is an amazing creation. But I tend to want to show off more than be safe and do the right things. Almost hit a tree the other day because I was talking and not worrying as much about how far I went.
Also, in public areas, how do you cope with random people coming up to you? I'm a bit of a computer science guy that isn't into talking to people and tend to shy away from social contact. How do you just go out and fly it and handle everyone coming up to you loving what you are doing (or saying that drones are bad, in some cases). Also, a lot of people ask me why the hell would I spend $1,300 on a "toy drone" just to fly it around? I usually tell them that it's an amazing product and it's not a toy. I just hate when people jump into stuff like that and that is why I usually avoid social contact.
Sometimes that basically comes down to it's my money and I'll do with it as I choose, and I chose that I wanted to buy something that would change my life and add some spice to it.
Share some good and bad experiences you've had, I'd love to read them.
