Aerial view of Texas Rangers game from Phantom 3

The fact that you don't know why is only the beginning.

Didn't realize until after that you cant fly over sporting events. Thought I did the research, guess not. My apologies.

We are just trying to keep your name and the hobby out of the paper.

Wow! Yikes!

Maybe there needs to be some quick and dirty licensing procedure. Kind of like what it takes to get your CHL. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealed_carry_in_the_United_States

Hell no, bad idea.

Hell no, bad idea.

If you want this to last there will have to be something to keep the idiots from screwing it up for everyone else.

My intention was to fly over but I chickened out...(I guess it is a misleading title, my bad. Not sure what to put?)

People like you and the guy who flew one over the White House are going to ruin it for everybody. It clearly states dont fly above people or animals. Dont fly over or near buildings. Hopefully you get arrested faster than you get all of us in trouble.

Licensing will not keep idiots from doing dumb stuff. It only puts further restrictions on responsible people. Anybody who thinks CHL is making the world any safer than constitutional carry is wrong.

True and I totally agree. I don't want to see it go that way but I think that's what the FAA is going to push. Just like having a license to drive a car.

Holy horizon, UNACCEPTABLE!!! where is the fix DJI?

Isn't there an option in the app to adjust the horizon like there is for the Inspire?

It's a very good thing you chickened out as the local authorities would have most certainly gone looking for you had you done so. But even that you didn't, you should be aware that you have violated an FAA TFR (temporary flight restriction) by flying within 3 miles during the game. You cannot fly in a TFR area.

Yes there is.
Adjust Gimbal Roll.

Awesome, thanks! What is "it"? When you say " 'It' clearly states dont fly..."
