Granted both videos are not very exciting - the first is draining batteries in preparation for air travel and the second video was the first day of testing the Litchi App.

By where I thought maybe not near an airport.
It actually was close to an airport also - but not in the flight path - we have different rules here - not above 400 ft if within 3 miles of an airport and no requirement to tell anybody.
