a flight unit;
an image capturing unit configured to capture an image of a user to acquire an image data; and
a flight control unit configured to (i) determine whether the flying device is currently being looked at by the user or whether the user has currently lost sight of the flying device even though the flying device is located at a distance at which the user can visibly observe the flying device based on the image data acquired from the image of the user captured by the image capturing unit and (ii) to perform, in a case where the flight control unit determines that the user has currently lost sight of the flying device, a control of the flying device that is different from a control of the flying device in a case where the flying device is determined to be currently looked at by the user.
