Hi,
Just having a swifty browse on Wex and happened upon quadcopters.
I'm absolutely ignorant on all aspects of drone flying and found the following anomally rather confusing:
The promo vid for the DJI Phantom 3 shows it being flown over buildings, people and cars, yet the clickable link to the CAA Flight regs leads to a document that expressly forbids any of these things.
Is this because the vid was shot outside the UK and so CAA regs do not apply or can you do all these things as long as you have a licence to fly one. Assuming there is such a thing as a drone flying licence, of course!
An explanation would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Rob
