Hello OldGuy, damp is certainly correct!

Then you know more about drugs than I do ;)

I think it was a tongue-in-cheek remark about hallucinations...

Really like that shot, you should use it as your desktop :)

What sort of file is it? If a video, then upload to YouTube and copy the link?

It's not an offensive question, and no, it isn't GPS equipped. He's actually pretty good at flying it, he's spent more time than I know about playing RC simulators on the iPad. Obviously the consequences aren't the same, but he has a grasp of the basic idea, enough to give me time to take a...

I'm doing no such thing. I'm trying to understand how anybody can fly anywhere without breaking one of those rules, or applying for an exception. The way I see it, I've bought my son a gift that we shouldn't be using. As it is, we flew on the park on Wednesday and on a farmer's field today...

The list says nothing about 1000 people. The part regarding crowds is below that list. It gives examples of what it defines as a "built up and busy area", one of those areas is "beaches and recreational parks that are part of a city, town or village". Preceded by "Never fly above these areas...

Was that Dustin Dunill (I think)? Landed/crashed in the grass just the wrong side of the wall. I like that one :D

When did the MM come out? I actually saw another one last night that went to 1800M, when he got it back he said "obviously you're not allowed to fly it that far" (or words to that effect).

As a potential new owner in the very near future, this is one of my questions. YouTube is full of videos of people doing range tests and range hacks, some of them linked to this very site. I think I saw 11 miles on a video yesterday. I know some of these videos may be from places where these...
