So it appears there is no clear rule on how high and how fast you need to fly over other people's properties.
It seems to be permitted by the FAA and there appear that my state and township do not have additional restrictions.
There are various websites that say you should not hover too long and not take pictures in sensitive areas such as over pools, near windows, etc. Basically common sense.
However, if I go up to 200-300 feet and fly over at moderate speed, it seems this is OK, right?
I plan to go fly mostly in public spaces (parks) but once in a while I would like to take off from my house and explore the 1-2 blocks around my house. But I do not want to piss off neighbors.
