so saw someone flying one down at the beach today in Santa Barbara. Spoke with the owner a little bit and he assured me he hasn't had any issues with his whatsoever. He did reiterate that he is a very methodical flyer who makes sure to follow all set up and preflight instructions prior to flying.
There was a large pod of dolphins about 200 yards out over the ocean that he was flying over and filming. Pretty cool stuff, and I assume this is not something he would be confident in had the vision been acting up prior.
Just good to know as I am on the fence about getting one. Honestly this forum has turned me off. I was pretty sure I was going to get one until I see all the threads about them falling out of the sky etc.
I understand how forums work and you only get ill people in emergency rooms etc, but it was good to see someone confident in their drone and not reporting any issues.
