Terry Mills Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 "Guardian" Sunday October 30th In an article on "Five best drones", the suggestion is made that they are fun to use when hugging the ground around children and dogs. No comment regarding flying near passenger aircraft or "sensitive" areas. Is this now OK?

Phil 9 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 QVC are selling a number of drones and helicopters for sale. Apparently they make the ideal Christmas present for young children Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Privett Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 No mention either of the relevant ANO articles that make many people's use of "drones" illegal. Grauniad article is here for anyone who wants to see it (and maybe add comments in the comments section at the end of the article.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Williams Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 As I wrote in another thread, "I'm not sure why, in the current climate, the magazine (RCM&E) continues to run ads for Parrot drones - a quadcopter last month and fixed wing this month - claiming a 2km range for the first and 1.4 miles for the second. Hardly line-of-site (certainly with my eyes), and no mention in the ads of the regulations or CAA Drone guidance etc., just a small print statement that "Maximum range depends on wireless settings and flight environment"." Sales and advertiser's money trump all else of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
