Why do people put up videos here that show very well how they violate all rules and regulations in their country?
Maybe I am wrong but in UK
  • You must not fly the drone out of sight (and you do)
  • You must keep away from congested areas (and you don't)
  • You must keep a safety distance of 50 to other people and objects (and you don't)

Particularly when you're daft enough fly into Hurn airport's regulated airspace and leave a trail to your front door for someone to pay a visit and have a word - http://bit.ly/2layNco
Removing the youtube clip doesn't make it go away.

  • You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity.”

    No. But every now and then something goes wrong. Drones crash into buildings and fall down next to people. A few weeks ago a Phantom 3 emergency-landed on a highway and a car crashed into it. And when I see videos like above, I get the impression, that those people have no clue how much can go wrong. Oh wait, we can see everyday in the forums what can go wrong ;-)

    As far as I can tell, most bad situations have been caused by people who violated existing regulations. The result is: People will be hurt some day, regulations become more strict and fines increase. I neither want people to get hurt nor do I want stricter regulations for myself.
