That is indeed nuts. Must be the most irresponsible thing I've seen in quite a while. How much distance did they keep to spectators? Like 10 meters?
Ridiculous.
Never ever should anyone operate any drone of any size above other peoples heads / that close to them, let alone that huge thing. One small human or
technical error and someone might be missing a head.
In the first video which I posted it was done in what seemed like a controlled environment, which is why I found it cool. I don't at all approve of
what that guy in the snowboard/drone videos was doing. I think I've stumbled upon some of his drone "reviews" before and he seems like a total ***hole
anyway.
/rant over
I live in a country with basically no drone laws and very light RC plane laws compared to other countries, which is no wonder since I think I've only
once seen a flying quadrocopter here in my life. Apparently some new EU regulation is going to change all that in a few years, which is probably
because of how irresponsibly some people seem to operate their "toys". Let's just hope they don't kill a nice hobby (RC) in the process.
