Why does that imply I fly IN heavily populated areas? I guess you've never flown near a single person then. You are legally permitted to fly a drone 50M away from people in line with the UK CAA's drone code as long as it's smaller groups. Drones can still be heard quite easily at 50M and by having quieter props this simply causes less aggravation to the odd dog walker. No, I do not fly any of my drones in congested areas and can not comment on Yuneec - not a brand I care for - putting it politely!
It's irrelevant whether you care for Yuneec or not, the Q500 range is quieter than the MP emitting only a low tone rather than the higher pitched one of the MP but as I have said many many times, the MP is hardly noisy compared to many.
As for flying in heavily populated areas, I am aware of the CAA rules on drones but thanks for sharing them with me again, much appreciated. It is however, possible to minimise all risk of flying near people, just watch the many video's posted on here by all manner of people from various countries.
I do fly on beeches, in parkland etc. but I do also make sure there are no people in the vicinity I fly in just to be sure. |
