      Why would you throw a ball onto a neighbor's property on purpose? I think negligence will be the reason for almost all real cases.

You can't throw trash on a neighbor's property, why would the ball be different?

On my channel I chronicle my adventure when I lost my Mavic Pro in a tree in a cemetery (a much bigger drone than a Mini 2). It took a months time to eventually spot the drone and only after the leaves had fallen. It was autumn. The drone was eventually rescued by a tree climber. I took it apart to make sure it was dry inside, put it back together and I still fly it today. I think Mini 2 is still hanging in the branches.

    One thing that missing from the discussion is that the water park doesn't want people flying drones there for privacy reasons. They have a no drone policy for a reason and while the park was closed at the time, they didn't change the rules and they clearly don't want to start a precedent with allowing people to fly drones there. You have to take the venue into consideration and try to understand why they reacted the way they did. It's not like flying a drone over vacant land.

    November 15, 2015, was flying P3P at about 650' to take pics of the top of the tallest building in the State-something malfunctioned and it started flying away. It didn't respond to RTH, or any input. I watched it fly into a federally guarded port facility, and I tried to talk them into letting me locate it-to no avail. A couple days later, I was allowed to fly over and check building roofs-nothing. THEN 5.5 months later, I got a call that they had found the drone on top of a white roofed building-so it was hard to see-even close up. It had been in the rain/thunderstorms of Mobile, AL for a half year. I replaced the battery, cleaned it up, and the bird flew great. So, I guess that I'm trying to say "just cause you get a drone soaking wet, don't give up on it."

    The gentleman in the upper left makes a good point from a pragmatic point of view. I, and I think most people, think of the space above their property at least up to the height of the top of their roof or perhaps the surrounding trees as being "their" space. I can erect a tower or an antenna in that space up to a height of 200 feet without (short of being in an airport flight path) having to get permission from the FAA. I surely support drone hobbyists flying over parks and public land as there is no expectation of privacy. But, perhaps there should be something codified about flying over private property.

    If a car damages property, can the owner of that property keep the car? The question is what was the amount of damage caused by that 250g drone? Obviously nothing. So why would the water park not return the drone? That drone costs money. Why not at least give the kid a chance? To make an example of him? I will never go to that water park and will tell anyone who asks how uncool and unfair the owners are. Kids are the main clients if water parks. Kids make mistakes and do silly things. Why have a business that caters to a clientele that you don't like? I guess it's 100% business. Who cares about kids they must think. I am really appalled by their actions.
    That thing about a burglar suing a homeowner shows the insanity of the American justice system. A mugger won a excessive force lawsuit against an off duty cop. Imagine that anyone rescuing a person being attacked by a mugger risks prison and/or a money payout. The justice system in America is sick, really sick. Someone committing a violent crime can not be allowed to benefit or even become wealthy by suing anyone involved. As soon as they start committing a violent crime, they should lose their rights. Otherwise mugging can be a good choice in america if you know the law. Go mug people and whether or not you succeed, you walk away with a profit. Is it just me who thinks that the American justice system is heavily flawed.

On another note, a question for those who think the amusement park was inconsiderate or somehow did Josh wrong, do they have a FAA Part 107 certificate? May not seem like a big deal to some but those who are certified seem to better understand the ramifications - good and bad. Just my 2 cents.

    Great story Ken.
    The park simply could have viewed the sd card and seen that not a sole was there.
    Young men do dumb things all the time , it's part of growing up.
    A firm verbal warning should have been sufficient then out of common decency helped him get his drone back. No harm done.
    Did they crush it ? No , they stole it.
    Good to hear the community dug in and got him a new drone. Collectively we have power.

      Young men? At 67 I crashed my drone at a public park after two weeks of ownership and the Las Vegas drone repair shop wants half what it is worth to repair it ( DJI mini) So I went and bought a $2,000 drone that I only fly in the desert!

    In the days of CB's there was a regulation that you could not put up an anttena higher than ten feet above the highest item on the property. That would imply ownership of the airspace up to and including ten feet above the highest point on the property.

    I was filming a Infomercial for a HOA website and crashed my MPP into a homeowners roofing, I knocked on the owners door, (I’m in full vest w/license displayed), the owner Blew Up! My drone ruined his tiled roof and he was calling the cops, OK FINE, I was hired by your HOA, and my 3rd. Infomercial in 2 years. I showed him my flight path and exactly on his roof where my drone was, ( between 1st and 2nd floor under a ledge), he went onto his balcony with a broom. Dragged my drone to edge then onto ground. He then stated he was keeping my drone, I said fine, just need my SIM CARD, (Drone was totaled anyway), long story short, We shared a heated conversation, retrieved drone and sent off to DJI CARE REFRESH, received new MAVIC PRO PLATINUM 4 days later, and completed job for HOA.

    I think it is only 339 ish for a mini 2 aircraft only drone replacement. If the drone was recovered and broken from the fall, it probably would cost a couple hundred to repair anyway, so filing a lawsuit was probably a lost cause even if the judge ruled in his favor and they returned to him a rain soaked drone with broken arms.

    The policy says you cannot use a drone for "filming" or "video taping." The DJI Mini 2 does not use film and it does not use video tape. It records digitally to an SD card. So he was not doing either of these prohibited things.

    Kid broke the law by flying the drone beyond his line of sight and lower than the tallest structure on the property. The moment he crashed and realised that it was his own negligence that caused the crash he should have accepted that he was in the wrong. To file a lawsuit under those circumstances is absolutely ridiculous. Just learn your lesson and move on buddy.

    • @username7763
      @username7763 Před 9 měsíci

      I partially agree. Yes he shouldn't have been flying there. But the result isn't justice. The water park isn't entitled to his drone. Instead, he can be hit with fines and other penalties by the government as punishment. The waterpark getting it is unjust enrichment at the very least and as many people have said outright theft. If someone trespasses on my property, I don't get to keep their camera or take their car. They can be charged with trespassing, but in no way do I get to keep their stuff.

    I race and fly my drones in new York all the time. In the state of NY you can fly over property due to the land owner does not own the air space above them and the as long the flyer is not trying to video are take inappropriate photos and the FAA don't fly that low. Also I had a friend that flew over GA great adventure in NY they didn't help so he took them to court and he won the case they returned his drone and he was a happy camper.

    It seems like if FAA controls the airspace and the vehicles operating in it that they can make a ruling that any aircraft that goes down must be returned to the owner especially now that they are requiring remote ID, local law enforcement officials would have been able to have tracked the drones location easily and had it recovered. If FAA has control of all aircraft then it would have authority over its recovery when downed.

  • @ronkramer3476
    @ronkramer3476 Před 2 lety +1

    I say - any time you fly over private property you are taking the risk of loosing the drone. Just like flying over the lake means you may loose your drone. You may be able to fly over and film, if you get it back fine. If you land/crash you're at the mercy of the land owner. A nicer owner would go help you. Someone not so nice has the option to say no we're closed. thing is, he may not have done damage but flying into someone else's property can have resulted in damage if it crashed on their gear/equipment. I say "at your own risk". Then always plan you may lose it.
