    FAA Release NEW rules for UAS Operations

    I'm particularly amused at how they've published a rule that requires technology that doesn't currently exist to use a standard that doesn't exist.

    FAA Release NEW rules for UAS Operations

    Think we'll see updates to the Typhoon H for remote ID, or do we all now have giant paperweights?

    Remote id. Ya or Nay What do you guys think?

    It's caused me to move on to wheeled RC vehicles. Mounted a camera and transmitter to an 8x8 off road crawler. It's been an interesting experience.

    Remote Identification of Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    That's a bit different than what we're talking about (or at least what I'm talking about) though.

    Remote Identification of Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    Yeah, California is particularly bad. They still haven't tried putting GPS tracking devices on 'em though (yet).

    Remote Identification of Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    For one, I've never seen a GPS device that could transmit positional data to the Internet via GPS satellites- the satellites don't have that capability. Even if they did, and even if the device were ultralight, tiny, and free, we should still be saying no. Not even gun owners are treated...

    "Just give the robbers what they want and don't resist. They definitely won't come back for more if we do that!"

    I have a sUAS license. Does this mean I can do for profit flying?

    "I don't know that guy, he must have pulled the images off of my perfectly legal hobbyist site"

    Remote Identification of Unmanned Aircraft Systems

    Everyone that said "it's just a 5 dollar registration fee, it's fine" needs to suck start a shotgun. This is exactly what happens when they start "regulating" things.

    I have a sUAS license. Does this mean I can do for profit flying?

    "I just gave it to him 'cause I thought he'd like to see pictures of his tractors. If you don't like him using it for his business, take it up with him." "You can't fine me for flying a drone without a 107, I didn't fly the drone. Take it up with the drone owner."

    How long have you been flying your H?

    Just over 2 years. Worst thing I've had happen was a tip over when landing. One close call with a falcon. Lost it behind some trees once. No crashes or collisions.

    Oh good. More laws incoming.

    New FAA Advisory, 91-57B

    Pretty soon we'll all be criminals if we want our drones to be more than paperweights

    NEW FAA RULES - EFFECTIVE MAY 17, 2019

    So in other words they're going to start denying the honest people that already followed the rules. Sounds like typical government.
