      Yes, it might put a small scratch on a car. So what? My car has got lots of little scratches and pangs where someone has opened their door onto it or whatever, but you know what? It still drives fine and the world hasn' ended, and neither has mine. Stop worrying about trivial shit. There is nothing wrong with this video.

        I'm sure if a mother pushing a pram came along the road he would have landed it and waited for them to pass, there was nobody about and he was in control of it the whole time. I don't see much wrong with this. If it was an rc car nobody would be bothered and that would cause just as much damage as a 130x if it crashed.

            If your answer is yes then, well, on your head be it.

            Twist the question very slightly, and ask would it be ok to fly a 130 into someones face without their permission? im hoping you would have the sense to say 'no'.

            So someone walking down the street gets the 130 in the face, by accident because of a problem or pilot error..... its not ok, its completely avoidable by the pilot not being a dick by flying in a very public area.
            I have a chainmail glove and balaclava, I have also consumed a lot of Vodka this evening, so yes, I will put my begloved finger into said 130 rotor disc and you may fly it into my face at will.......bring it on, but dont tell the doo gooders!! lol!!!

                Flying in the street

                What a load of fuss over nothing...

                Flying a tiny 130X in a quiet residential street, during the entire flight I didn't see a single passer by or car on the move. The only thing even slightly put at risk was that burgundy citroen which, for all anyone on here knows, could have been his own blooming car. Lets be honest, even were he to crash into it, the damage a 130X could possibly do to that car isn't exactly going to need insurance to cover it is it.... I bet you a dozy knob in a car park can (and given the state of my car is far more likely) to do substantially more damage with a deadly shopping trolley or just by opening their terrifyingly dangerous car door into another car.

                Would I do it? Probably not... I like to have more space personally and would rather fly where I'm less likely to be interrupted by someone passing by or talking to me. I'd also be wary of possibly dinging the car.

                But sweet lord, the way some people are making this out you'd think he was doing Tic Tocs with a 700 in a day care centre.

                Get a grip.

                      Theres no line to draw it IS a 130 we're commenting on, we're not talking about a 250, 300 or anything else, not a relevant comment if you ask me.
