I was browsing the DJI website and considering buying a drone, when one of their galleries displays terrific photos of Australia Beaches. The photographer stated that often he flew 1.5km away (so much for line of sight), and another terrific shot displayed the fine Caloundra waterfront - probably only a mile from Caloundra Airfield !!
Whilst I know the law, I bet many other customers will try to replicate such actions.
