    I think Davsel owns acreage, so the likelyhood of a drone being directly over his residence is low, and if that is the case, the operator would be in error. I think most of use live in dense neighborhoods where someone having an inspection next door might be unnerving.

    I'm curious how many drones don't even have cameras. Is that a thing?

    Sounds to me like the operator would be out a drone.

    Especially cheaper hobby grade which can seem large, plenty of them don't have cameras. Then a large Segment have basic cameras that take video or images that are downloaded later to view but are not used to fly. As you might guess that makes taking spy photos hard blindly recording.

    Most all that have a camera have some form of a lower-res video stream back to the controller, for visual confirmation of the shot, but the high-res stuff is stored onboard until landed and downloaded later.

    Race quads don't have high res cameras, for the most part, but they do have lower-res with a video stream for FPV flying of courses. (Googles so it appears that your eyes are on the front of the quad).
