hi guys, like tiitle said
i decided to flown mavic surrounding by the crowds because of
1. i'm not a beginner nor the pro yeah i can tell maybe just intermediate skill
2. i flown expensive drone which i guess can be trusted (not  a cheap $100 drone)

oke with that case did you all think i'm still doing something stupid or not? maybe in scale of 1 to 10 how stupid i am (if under 5 of scale i will keep doing this)
i need this input from you all

Thank's in advance !!

This is the guide for beginners  10 THINGS YOU SHOULD NEVER DO IN DRONE

thank you! yes i know i realize that, but you missed my 2 points as i mention above to makes why i'm doing that, and c'mon thats why i need "honest" input, do you think all users follow that guide? NFZ of course i can't argue with that, but if you follow that entire guide so i guess drone will never exist

On a scale of 1-10 11 for stupid, it's this kind of thing that will help keep this hobby in a very negative light.
The fact that you published what is an awful video . It just look like you want to show some bravado, the fact that you pretend you somehow don't know this is stupid, really shows how stupid you are.

My guess is your just looking for attention, next time you make a video like this keep it for family viewing only.

I'd say a 15 for stupid. If you ever wonder why governments tighten drone legislation, Look no further than this video.

I understand you are from Indonesia. I am not familiar with Indonesian drone law but if you break the law, yes it is stupid.

However your video is indeed cringe worthy because:
1. Hand launched from the sidewalk next to a big road. This is dangerous because the drone can be drifted by the air pocket around moving vehicles.
2. Low flight in a public area. This is also dangerous because you can hit electric wires, branches.
3.  Crowded area, but the definition depends on you. I am going to Malaysia next month and they define crowded area as a a place with more than 1000 people (concert etc). In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with what you did in regards of flying around crowds.

Best place to practice is in a big park. If you confident enough you can fly it above water. The whole safety point is to ensure no one get injured if something wrong happened. We do not care about your expensive drone to be honest.

Actually, in comparison to the cyclists and pedestrians wondering in front of the large buses and heavy traffic I don't see much difference in what you are doing than what they are. While in Rome.......

Based on how and where this guy decided to fly the drone, I don't he will have one for much longer. It's a crash waiting to happen.  #DroneDarwinism

My bad...I guess the OP was hoping for more positive feedback, such as: "You're a genius", "very smart flying", etc..  The freaking OP called himself "stupid" in so many words.

Just to add my 10 cents worth, I think the OP just wanted to get a lot of viewers of his "in poor taste" video. I didn't even bother watching it.

Didn't even bother to watch the video. A 13 minute long video of stupidity is not worth it
