First time shooting at night so very noisy, no post, ISO 3200 etc. Will work on improving my game later on.

Great, then you wonder why the draconian rules and regulations restrict flying for the law abiding among us.

Nice shots, of course, but... how about not flying overnight, not flying over cities, not flying above crowded areas ?

 

[choo choo]

You steaming great idiot...whatever possessed you to even think it was a good idea to fly over a crowded market, at night?
If you can’t fly responsibly, then you shouldn’t be allowed to fly at all.

Hi folks, I just got a DM from mavicpilots.com sent by this forum's user or guest "p3-reaerial" - and without more data I can't reply to him via mail.
Here is the reply:
Question: "Does the same regulation of the US apply to French country?"
Answer: Bruxelles is Belgium's capital, and the same basic rules apply: see them here (page in French language, easy to translate with Google Translator)
No night flight, not over people, not in populated areas of large or small cities, etc. Common sense.
Merry Xmas & Happy 2019 - and fly safe and responsibly!

Please....dont' do this ever again. I also live in Belgium. I am a Class II licensed drone pilot, this is strictly forbidden here in Belgium. Flights like this will get us all banned....
Please consider where you are flying....this makes my stomache ache.

The above is true but for Belgium there is a big difference compared to other countries : on top of the common sense rules, without a proper licence you can only fly up to 10 m above private land with owner autorization.

Regarding the initial post : nice view of Brussels, but lots of rules broken.
