    They can probably find out who you are when your multirotor crashes in their yard by typing in the faa number on google.

    Angle gauges

    The problem I have with them is the surfaces are rounded and the guage is square. How do you find level? Do you tape them to a center line somehow? I use those for thrust angle, caster on car suspensions.

    Petitioning AMA members for separation from drones

    I have tried fpv and I really think the fpv racing is cool. My buddy races around his buddies 10 acre farm and never goes over 100 feet. Large camera equipped multirotors are going well above 400 feet for sustained periods exploring up high which greatly increases the chance of a collision. When...

    EXACTLY! They have failed at what we pay them for. Nobody has answered what they do for our clubs either. Dump them. Especially if you have private land.

    This is the problem with this country right now. "Its only $5", "I love this sport so much I will just pay it". Everything freedom we have lost in the last 30 years has started this way. If everyone truly loves this sport, than stand up for it. Don't register with the faa or the ama and don't fly.

    Petitioning AMA members for separation from drones

    Silly boys, did you read towards the bottom of the email? It says, hold off registering with the faa until we (ama) can streamline the process for registering our members. So in other words, the ama will register you, like a sex offender, for you. Isn't that nice of them. "DUH,WE ARE JUST...

    Petitioning AMA members for separation from drones

    The difference of course being no spotter, side or rear vision or sound with fpv. I can clearly hear a cessna over my 111 at my club and my spotter will warn me of manned aircraft behind me approaching. I know a guy in our club who sat in his kitchen and flew around his neighborhood with his fpv...

    If you are at your field and a suspicious car drives up, grab your transmitter and go stand in the field and look up at the sky. Pretend to look at something that isn't there. Could be fun.

    You have never seen where a fixed wing aerobatic or scale plane almost became fod for a 747 at 2500 feet either.
