A quadcopter could potentially safely be flown within 3Km(2 miles) of an airfield if they are above 17 years of age(but there are arguments who is above 17 years of age in possession of a quadcopter - perhaps why police are so slack at taking them away...hmmm).

In basic terms, there are actions that can "improve quality of life and gain efficiency" with equipment such as these smaller cheaper short range drones that are 250g-or-more e.g. Tarantula X6 "with FPV"(e.g. bees and stingless bee species) but the only problem is its all the same to a legislator..

These are areas circled Where private use quadcopters are banned in NSW.
Only half these areas including no heliports are shown in these maps.
In technicality the scope of tha ban is immense and crippling to required uses can be found as a tool for outdoor quadcopter use non professional non sponsored.

WARNING - THIS ONE (Updraft) YOU MAY NOT KNOW WELL BECAUSE IT REQUIRES A QUADCOPTER OF LESS THAN 250g (8.8 oz) !!!

There is one more key feature about small drones "below 250g outdoor" !!!

Not shown in this video are proper demonstrations of meteorological atmospherics.
There are two severe atmospheric problems V686 and similar drones/quad-copters have that render them out of control that are difficult to detect and are a feature of atmospherics requiring good aerodynamic control of the UAV !
These two are "Updraft" and "Downdraft"
As the name implies these rapid air movement patterns have a serious effect, However, the downdraft is not the biggest problem here.

The "updraft" on small UAV can in fact lift a small UAV such as a V686 "to a higher altitude" AFTER engine power has been ceased !!!
This means the Gyro keeps the UAV stable while the blades attempt to chute/cushion on the air by gravity , but the upward air rush lifts the craft higher !!!

TO COUNTER THIS, switch engine power back on at no more than 1/3 power and "push the balance control stick (usually the right control stick) to full" in any direction! The UAV will then disrupt the air under its props while angling its balance offset and slide down and across in altitude!!!
