[QUOTE="JD4x4, post: 3969, member: 33"] A. In the U.S. the Supreme Court ruled that a property owner also owned the airspace above their property to (at least) 83 feet. Public airspace has been previously established as being above 500 feet, with various government agencies recently declaring (without adjudication and legal ruling) Public Airspace to be as low as "grass level and above". B. No, you couldn't find out for certain until they were in your hand that DJI's new "Selfie" quad would or could refuse to operate completely, even at ankle height. Maybe I missed that it was supposed to be frequently only a hand held camera, but I don't think so. C. Please point me to reports (in the U.S.) where there have been verified drone/plane incidents other than pilot sightings. Actually, that's not even relevant to the lack of product functionality, and THAT's what I find problematic. I've posted Google photos of my property on another forum, and I'll be glad to repost them here. Imo, the ability to operate below the tree line on my own property shouldn't concern anyone other than me until such time as it affects someone other than me, or until you can point out something I'm missing about my situation.
