I don't own a drone but was nearly hit in the head with one several months ago! Some young guys were flying it very low over traffic on our busy Wilshire Blvd. As I walked by them, they suddenly brought the drone to the sidewalk area just above my head! I threw my hands over my head and screamed! The drone crashed.... I don't know why they picked such a busy place to fly it...I guess some guys in their early 20s don't think? Anyhow, haven't seen a drone since.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are cheap drones - they are nearly impossible to fly without real control -- and it doesn't come with avoidance features -- those are the drones you NEED to avoid! The drone I have -- if you fly straight into a building let's say -- it'll stop a foot from the building and just hover. But since you said, Wilshire bvld ... you're in California? If so ... that explains a lot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so ... that explains a lot! Yes, in Los Angeles...been here since 1967! From Pennsylvania originally. Yes, lots of things happen here where you can say "that explains alot!" Sometimes it's like living on a different planet! ? That is a good drone you have... didn't realize they would stop like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I need to get another filter to handle the sunrise. However, you'll get a good understanding of what the site looks like from above. This is incredible that you can be at a place like this and there's no people around!! Incredible scenery! How far are you from your car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
