5-8 flights up to ~30 seconds each. I think that's pretty acceptable, vs a constant buzzing



I live on a beach in Thailand on a small tropical island and it is absolutely frown upon if someone fly with drones. It is not just the beach where I live but on all beaches island-wide where there is a high chance for that you will be asked to put your drone away. Nobody wants a camera to record their beach trip.

Maybe snaps drone is more acceptable as it seem to primarily trying to be a flying selfie stick that records you and not the entire beach area, but it still emit a buzzing that will annoy everybody.

Imagine if this product category takes off and having 10 or 20 of these on a beach becomes norm. Well, there goes your nice holiday. Enjoy your trip.
