I fly in a park like this 3 times a week and I do a lot of things to keep it safe. #1 is Quads with the cheap plastic GWS electric style props at a million times safer than the reenforced Nylon APC props. I've caught one of those near full throttle in my hand and the props fly off. I also cut the throttle if anyone or a dog comes near. You just need to be prepared to ditch at a moment's notice.

Si c'est dans le Sud alors ca va !!! :-)
Non je suis à la Cité Universitaire de Paris (sud de paris). The shot was as usual at University City of PARIS (south of paris).
Ha le parisien vaut mieux l'avoir en journal ;)
C'est pas grave Patrice tu peux voler tranquille ceux sont juste des Parisiens !!!
I will put protection around my propeller very soon.
BTW, what a bitter feeling it is when people start slowly walking to you and/or your copter, full of curiosity... right? :)
Patrice, did you try to tie the bottle to the frame?

yeah! so smart playing with blades around people.
Have you read a recent post about what happen if one of these propellers "touch" your skin?
Fantastic work Patrice but the issue of safety has to be addressed. Please be careful where you fly.
