I used to love building and flying quadcopters, but today marks the day I'm officially done with this hobby. I can't justify dealing with the police for days every time I go flying for 20 minutes 😒
@fribbledom I keep mine indoors and use it to chase my cats around when they're being annoying.
@muesli Is it prohibited where you live or why do you need to deal with the police?

@aerror

Nope, perfectly legal. I even have/had an insurance. I do get the feeling it's a thorn in their eyes, though, so they probably decided it's time to start harassing people a bit.

@muesli Obviously police has no better work to do then... :(

@fribbledom I used to build and fly models. Areas to fly got squeezed out of existence resulting in similar experiences. Didnt touch quads really that much. I imagine in some areas people are hyper obnox.

I bet like a few other hobbies it will get squeezed or licensed to hell, can only fly in certain walled gardens etc.

@fribbledom
Does the German police allows flying kites?
🙃
