“ if the choice of hitting somebody or dropping spark to the ground “ what if someone walks underneath your spark when you drop it to the ground?
Rules of flying drones is if you see or spot Manned AC you lower your drone if your flying in a situation where you cannot lower your drone in time and you already know this, then you shouldn’t be flying in that environment period as you know you are putting manned aircraft at risk.
I'm quite new to the drone flight and the RC world in general, just about 3 weeks, but during the time I've been piloting my Spark I've only been really scared once, when a helicopter suddenly appeared behind some buildings and I was flying 50-60 meters above GL when I saw that huge AC flying too close to my Spark ... so I thought about making that CSC movement with the sticks, but then my reaction was to put the dron to sport and drag it down and back to me as soon as possible.
Since that day I am very careful with my flight and the way I am flying ... It was very early in the morning and I was in a park, I know now that the regulation of drones in Spain does not allow flying in these areas, so I avoid them now ...
Anyway, my point is that I think my reaction was the best I could have given my location and situation as it was, I do not think a killer switch would have been my best choice since I would not have had control over the falling drone and as hallmark007 indicates the damage could have been much greater ...
One question for you hallmark007: where do you get the NOTAM information? |
