Even though flying to high altitudes can be tempting, I really don't think we should do it. I personally don't mind bending the rules a bit here and there, but flying higher than 500 meters is totally insane. Firstly, it's not legal in most of the world, and secondly, we must not forget that those heights are ALWAYS belonging to manned aircraft.
We should also think of our future as drone pilots. If accidents are detected based on this type of flight, I believe we are moving ahead to a hard time with even more restrictions. Don't fly that high please... it's crazy.
I kindda get the idea he just wants to reach top of the mountain remotely, so perhaps the risks are different as just sending the drone 800m above him.
Of course risks of crashing and maybe causing another kind of incident are high. Anyway I wouldn't encourage anyone to fly that far from launching point, as you say, for us and future drone pilots |
