From the thread you posted to "Post Your Videos":
"I have my videos posted on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/IslandSgouromitis)
I recently got a comment on one of them from someone from AirVuz, Checked out their website and its a website for Drone videos. Pretty awesome website www.airvuz.com
Its an awesome way to show your videos off, please still post them here though as well!! Just thought it was cool enough to share"
You claim these to be your videos in that thread. Whether you were making false claims or not, it's what you posted to be true. There's no denying those aerial shots are spectacular. If permission were applied for and granted then you or the original author have nothing to worry about. Having the skill set to fly that close to the Chrysler building at night in a remotely controlled domestic retail drone is one thing, crashing into a high rise building with the potential to cause injury to others is another. This could also have been made from footage shot from a legitimate manned helicopter platform, who knows.
Claiming or inferring these shots were taken by yourself is going to attract unwanted attention to the recreational hobby many legitimate law abiding drone owners enjoy, not to mention those that are professionally registered to earn a living in that sector. Legislation changes are brought about by public demand, home guard security, historical risk, legal interpretation and precedence etc.
You claim these shots as your own, which will encourage the propensity for others of limited public spirit, as a green light to have a go themselves. Rules are made to be broken, nanny state, political correctness gone mad, pushing the boundaries are all phrases that are quoted by the selfish few to the detriment of the vast majority in defence of such self fulfilling lack of regard for the danger or consequences of such actions.
This is real; the more adverse publicity this pastime and profession is exposed to will inevitably curb the use of drone technology in the hands of anyone other than state institutions and highly regulated governing bodies. |
