No. I don't think it is ok. No matter what the size of the drone is either... But I'm also a hypocrite...
This is however, a very complex topic...
When I did built my first drone, that's exactly the first thing I did... I wanted to see the world from above the clouds... Mind you I had been in aeroplanes before but this time I was in the cockpit and it also was the first FPV experience.. I think everybody tries that the first time they get their hand on a drone.. But as you grow older and you gain experience, you quickly realise that those video of clouds look all the same and they get boring quite quickly... Plus you can't really see anything from up there...
That's when you have to decide why you got a drone in the first place... I'm obviously talking about amateur level here not professional..
You want to get your adrenalin pumping? Get a small FPV and a good set of goggles and learn to fly manual...
You want to enjoy exploring places and see things that normally would be out of reach? Get a nice drone with a good camera...
What has really stopped me flying above the clouds, was thinking of a tourist plane that did crashed many years ago after being strike by birds... Imagine if your parents, your kids, your best mate, someone you really care for, was in a plane that crashed because of your drone... I simply couldn't live with that! Could you?
Happy flying....
