Thread: Using Drones

Some are keen on these!
Bloody annoying in my opinion! But here’s a few tips, just so I’m not a huge kill joy.
1 don’t fly it in high winds, you won’t get it back.
2 don’t fly it over or near other people. No one wants too be filmed without permission. Even if your not filming them everyone knows it’s got a camera so they feel your filming them!
3 don’t fly too close to animals, seen a few videos where deer have seen, heard the drone and bolted.
4 why not so long as your not braking any laws.
5 goggle earth might be more affective. Also easier to carry and less fragile. Ie deer on back plus rifle plus drone add NZ native bush = broken drone?
6 for small areas it might be ideal. ie a gully creek you want to checkout to see if there’s any small slips.
There’s my take.
