[QUOTE="1uk3y, post: 75679, member: 15210"] I wasn't sure what anyone else has encountered but in the 7 days for which I have owned and flown my Spark I have encountered several members of the public actually approach me and ask; 'are you flying one of those bloody drones?', 'don't point that thing at me', do you have permission to fly that here?', 'who are you and why are you flying that'.. It has actually shocked me a bit and made me feel a bit apprehensive about flying it :( Can I also just say, I haven't flown it anywhere other than very rural environments, wide open spaces, quite desolate etc.. for example, beaches, clifftops, mountains, valleys, open fields etc.. the incident today was bizarre, I saw the guy literally a few hundred meters away with a woman and he made a point of walking over to me to say his piece.. I'm a very conscientious, polite individual with much consideration for people and my immediate environment, I am also very careful where I choose to fly and will make a point of keeping away from people but they seem to just appear.. I must also say I have had MORE people wander over to ask about the drone because they are interested in buying or using one!! [/QUOTE]
