What’s your best drone shot where you’ve used it to get into place that you couldn’t? It’s a picture that doesn’t look like it was taken with a drone… for example flying down to the bottom of some cliffs and looking up? I don’t have one btw.

I don’t think the FAA have a mandate in Ireland 😀 Surely you are allowed to fly over people that have given their permission. They are “involved people”

Why

We have a weak voice and will continue to have our ability to fly quashed further and further…

Yes of course

What is SAR please?

Oh what an absolute fuss! 😳

Agreed. I don’t why we have to put up will all this red tape and costs. It’s just madness.

Because it’s a colossal blanket ban. I don’t Iive in the US and it irks me. I’m on holiday in the Lake District, one of the UK’s national parks, and it’s a fantastic and safe place to fly a drone. Admittedly, just 2% of the USA is national parks so that does leave 98%.

What a joke this is

Why is it illegal?

The rules are in place that mitigate the risks such as the Drone Code in the UK. There do not need to be “no drone” signs anywhere. The general public do not understand how safe drones actually are. Perhaps they need educating?

Fantastic

Depends on your subject matter but for me it's change the aperture first to keep motion blur all good with a shutter speed of around 1/60 or 1/120 if at 50fps.

Put one of exposure (if not fixed), shutter speed or iso onto one of the wheels on the remote to make it easy to change during a shot.
