    Good news, one of those went on sale just 3 days ago for a mere £100,000!

    If someone is annoyed by your plane, ignore them and they will get more annoyed.
    if someone is interested in your plane, give them a ride and they will be even more interested

    The funny thing about the word dependapotomous, is that other Military people who have never heard the word before, know exactly who you are talking about. Another one I like is Dependasaurus Rex. Anyways, the cops never showed up. I've been pretty busy the past few days with work and the weather has been kind of bad for flying lately. Also, my power supply died. I have another on the way. Anyways, I sure hope that my dependapotomous neighbor doesn't think that she scared me from flying my quad copter. I'll be flying it again in the next day or two.

    It is definitely hard to see in a window. I've tried to do it to my house. I was able to see my wife when I finally jockeyed it into the right position and she came up to the window and waved at me. Also, the rest of my friends and neighbors all seem really interested. Most are so interested, that I have to fly from my back yard or they'll come up and distract me with questions while I'm flying around. I've even had requests from friends to come out and film their houses or whatever. Most people are interested. I figured that it would only be a matter of time before somebody hassled me about it though.

    You and that women live on an airforce base and shes concerned about privacy? lol Arent aircraft flying dead low in your area anyway? I live within 3 miles of a military base and always get low flying military aricraft all the time. Its getting even more busy because they are gearing up for the olympics in london (this is northolt RAF base). Ive always been concerned that neighbours will get annoyed so I dont fly over their gardens I just go straight up and fly within that area that covers my house. On top of that police helicopters WITH CAMERAS are always around here 100ft up hovering in one spot. There is also an islander aircraft from the military that flys every day like clock work. This aircraft is for intelligence gathering and flys all the way up north back down again. Some people dont realise that you dont need to be near their house to get a close up view of anything. Theres a feature called zoom, maybe that women doesnt know about it.

    Yeah well, here in the US, everybody is super paranoid about their privacy and thinks that the whole world is interested in what they are doing in their house or whatever.

    Do you actually fly over your neighbours gardens or is she just freaking out just because she saw a camera on it?

    I suggest maybe going higher if you do want to fly, to the point its hard to spot. Although if you crash in that womens garden she will probably eat it.

    Same thing happened to me except my very large fat lady never even said a word to me she just went ahead and called the cops! She told the cops some story about I had high powered cameras looking in her windows. so the next thing I knew I had 2 cops at my front door! First question they had for me was do I have an RC aircraft with a camera mounted to it. I said Yes, then the police officer threaten to arrest me because I was breaking the law because I am not allowed to fly an RC airplane or rc anything with a camera on board because If I did so I would be breaking the patriot act! I asked are you sure about that and his answer was ...YES! At that point I simply said ok officer have a nice day...I knew I was not getting anywhere with him...so... now I record every flights in case I have to prove where and when I flew and I stay away from that lady's house which is easy to do because its all open farm land around here.

    Oh Geez, he threw the patriot act at you...That's worse than the GC statute about MANNED aircraft taht they used on Trappy.

    God help us all if they start throwing that worthless thing at us...Gitmo here we come!
