I got a little micro-drone for the kids for Christmas. Of course, I need to know how to fly it so I can teach them so I had a few sessions over at the neighborhood field. Thought I was getting pretty good. Thought "I don't need to drive over to that feild as long as I don't get too radical.
WRONG!
If you don't know how to fly a drone, don't even think about it in a residential area until you are sure your a pro. It's very easy to forget what you're doing with the two toggles and those suckers go at least 50mph. I lost sight of it about two blocks away and maybe a few hundred feet up. It has LEDS so I hoped to find it on someone's roof or in their back yard after sundown. I was extremely lucky to find it undamaged on street side yard.....and I didn't even have to go sneaking through the neighbors yards after sundown.
DON'T fly drones at high altitude and don't fly them on anything smaller than a football field. They move very quick and the wind will blow them away easily or turn them so you don't know which way is forward.
