[QUOTE="Malakai, post: 870, member: 224"] Yup, as the spark has a camera its classed as a Small Unmanned Surveillance Aircraft and as such its confined to flying no closer than 150m to a congested area. The crap part of this is that the Air Navigation Order defines a congested area as being 'any area of a city, town or settlement which is substantially used for residential, industrial, commercial or recreational purposes'. So unless you live in a rural area you are probably going to breach the CAA rules. My personal opinion on this is as long as you are flying safely, have good preflight checks and are considerate of others then it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Its only when things go wrong, they will really go wrong. [/QUOTE]
