I took exception to lumping all of us into the under 55 pounds sUAS category. I suggested another category (mini-UAS?) for unmanned aircraft under 5 pounds, since this covers the great majority of sUAS flying today. The potential energy of aircraft in this category is less than 10% that of a 55 pound UAS.
I also put in a plug for the safety of a 6-rotor drone vs. one with 4 or less rotors/motors/controllers.
