We know they want us out of "their" airspace, but I don't want a bunch of these whizzing by my house. This assumes perfect motors, esc's, flight controllers, batteries, software, and wiring. It depends on proper calibration, no bird strikes and no mistakes in route planning. They can't even design a car to autonomously navigate without killing people and that doesn't fall out of the sky. The FAA will accept this type of risk, so a few people can get richer? Scary!
 
I don't think they will be whizzing past your house, but they might be falling into it in a worst case scenario ! :) They'll travel several hundred feet up until they reach destination, only then lower to house height. Or at least that was what I gathered from similar demonstrations over here...
