Comments you get while flying your drone

[ac0j]

The questions I get most often is;
“Is that your unicycle?”
And
“Why are you naked?”


They never seem to notice the Mavic.

I had a couple ask me if i could photograph their house last week ...

I am still somewhat new to flying but in Sedona the other day a girl asked "Who are you spying on?" Thankfully my wife responded quickly while I was in mid-flight. My response would've been a lot less pleasant than my wife's...

A kid yesterday basically raced over to where I was standing all excited and wanting to see the iPad display of the drone in flight.

I was flying on the edge of our small town and the same kid came up to me 3 different times telling me that I stole his friends drone and was flying it without his friends permission . Once when I was landing it he came running up and he said he was taking it back to his friend the owner .
I was starting to see red

Then what?

I had a women ask me if I look into peoples windows....I said NO! I'm working on my search/rescue permit. She walked away. lol.

Lol , I told the little **** that more people than his buddy own drones .

Almost all of my flying is in remote locations so I never see anybody.
I was in Europe last year and had a few people ask me questions, when I tried to reply in extremely bad Portuguese they just left.
Cheers

So,how did you deal with this annoying kid,when he tried to pickup your drone?

 

[Mike4884]

“Is that the maverick professional.”
“Can I buy that at wal-mart”
“Will it go to the clouds”
“You only get 30 minute flight times?”
“Do you have to register with the fda?”


Yes! They are really asking these questions... Those are just a few that I get

I would have whooped him if he went to grab it... then his daddy would have got some too

All the above but by far the most asked is
How hard is it to fly, followed by How much

 

[Canuk]

I have been asked that as well but having a kid accuse me of stealing his ( buddy’s ) drone sticks in my mind .

 

[Aussie Oldtimer]

My answer these days is always “hang on a minute mate, my licence says that I'm not allowed to talk to anyone while its flying. If you want to wait 30 minutes til I land, I'll be able to talk to you”. Of course they keep asking but i just ignore them. I hate people

Q1: Is that hard to learn to fly?
>>>>>Me: No, not at all, would you like to try it?
99% >>>“Nah, it just looks like it would be fun”
>>>>>Me: To myself only, “so does your wife!”
1% >>>“Yes”

Q2: No Q, just offers!
>>>Me: “No, I really don’t want a beer right now, do ya have any weed?”

First time I flew: I forgot my drone gun...

 

[Sniperfritz]

I also got the UFO one before. The funny part is, I heard it after the news had spread.
It was also reported on a UFO website. Crack myself up every time I think about it.

I have a feeling. Nobody will hear from that kid again. Ha Ha.

 

[Mav.phant.inspire]

I have kids ask if they can drive it next, Cuz matter of fact they got one with a camera at home and it cost $60 and theirs does flips.

No, and please don’t throw things at it.

I get a kick out of letting folks (rarely kids) use tapfly in wide open spaces.

 

[Sniperfritz]

Strange how all the poeple that does not own a drone thinks alike. Same stupid questions all over the world. The mind boggles
