Nor is flying over people, which includes over the water. If CASA sees this, they may well take action because it breaks so many drone flying rules. Most, if not all, of the places in the video would be no-fly zones.
Nor is flying over people, regardless of altitude. I think much of the video was in areas not permitted for drone flight by CASA, as most of Sydney Harbour is in a restricted zone.

There's no question about it NOT being deliberately staged, and you don't even have to be a pilot to see this. He deserves to lose his licence permanently.
Really? These are the people who have engineered a constantly improving and highly sophisticated semi-autonomous flight system, that has to work everywhere in the world under a wide range of conditions, not least that of making sure permissions and authorisations to fly in restricted airspace...
The moral of this story is to do your research thoroughly before purchase. It is not DJI's fault that the Air 2S is not the same as the Parrot. As many people have pointed out here in this thread, there are plenty of ways of getting smooth footage with the Air 2S.

It is easy to keep your eyes on the drone and take photos / video at the same time, while looking down at the screen when necessary. Flying and photography are not mutually exclusive, as the CASA newsletter implies.
If you take the newsletter literally, it says you can't use a screen (or...
