I have the same concerns as you Far_North. For every "Fly Away" post you'll have at least 4 people that will tag along and blame it on "Pilot Error". Why market it as a Selfie Drone if it requires a professional pilots license to fly it? Even if there are pilot errors, shouldn't the software programming force it to RTH, land, crash and not just take the heck off?
Downsides to a stabilized drone. It doesn't know it is taking the heck off when in ATTI. It just tries to keep level as it drifts to the next city. An unstabilized drone would roll over into the ground so the parts are easily found by the owner.
All RC models require pilot skills. I knew that, my father knew that, and my grandfather knew that. It is why they wouldn't buy me a RC model when I was young. Surely, people still know there needs to be training or a learning period in order to safely fly a RC aircraft. And during the student's training time, there will be loss.
