The people ive seen flying drones all look a bit dodgy, I canāt imagine the motive of them filming children, someone needs to check the boot of their cars for long cable ties and duct tape.
Just popping out to remove the duct tape and cable ties from the carā¦

that soon escalated, there was about a dozen comments when I first saw it
Iām sure that almost 99.9% of non drone fliers all believe drones are only ever used for two purposes. 1, to scout out the best houses to burgle, or 2, Take pics of kids.
The Daily Telegraph contacted me to get some rules and to try and throw a bit of balance on this oneā¦ Canāt say I was happy with the headline but at least the article gets a bit more balanced as you read through itā¦

Yeah, I was pretty unimpressed with the headline to say the least, but he did promise me he wanted a balanced article with some positive points for dronesā¦ At least that crap headline gets all the gammons reading it and then learn that actually itās perfectly legal to fly themā¦

Where did the āmustnāt fly below 50māā for sub 250 (i know they didnāt say 250 but most drone in these settings will be) come into it, or, have they taken what you said out of context like alot of people with the rules. Thanks for the PDF.
Looks like the read the drone code without scrolling down to the sub-250g sectionā¦
I said to him that CAA guidance advised staying above 50 metres when flying over properties to avoid privacy issues. Which is true; I did read that on their site somewhere and itās what I tend to try and stick to to avoid annoying people in their gardensā¦ But they seemed to turn that into a hard ruleā¦
Ahh like one of my near neighbours, who told me they didnāt want to see their roof on a video I took two years ago.

Ian, I see the article mentions New Zealand as a switched on country. Well from what Bruce ( X Jet) says about NZ drone rules , Iād have to disagree with the Telegraphs assessment of that country. In NZ youāre not allowed many of the freedoms we have in good old Blighty as far as drones are concerned.

Thanks for sharing and also being a voice for the community 
I actually like their green sign theyāve put up, anyone responsible will already know that and be comfortable with it but may deter those less responsible - end result being the residents reduce problematic behaviours but learn to live with drones being flown lawfully, as their pilots have a right to do so. Win win
