Flying with drones in Slovakia
You can fly drones without a license and registration wherever the decree allows. The decree specifies the places where it is complete prohibition to fly: national parks, no-fly zones of military bases, power plants, some monuments, city centers and in the vicinity of airports at least 5,5 km from the airport.

This editor cleanly shot me through the middle of my head with a good cannon…
I don't understand how to go like that. He can be literate but he is certainly violating a number of laws, including fraud and lies, compared to a car with wooden wheels with a new Ferrari.
Such people should not have access to the media but should play the columb in the sink of the institution with paper boats…
The Fimi X8 has no obstacle avoidance function and panorama is not yet available. But the camera output is fantastic in this price range.
The panorama feature is in the description.
