Question....how can we be held to flying at VLOS, when these "winners" won't be held to that standard?

The FAA is not going to waste their resources on a "drone investigation task force." They make make it sound all good and official at meetings and such, but they are not going to come out and investigate people that part 107 holders call, just because those people didn't get their 107's. Not...

I am going to host an outdoor field trip for a class of middle-schoolers. I'd like to film them with the drone while they are out in the field doing a dig, and of course I won't be anywhere near them or over them, and the drone will be far enough away from them so they won't be identifiable in...

Thanks for the welcome and the advice Dirkclod and Big Al. Much appreciated!

The obsidian is definitely a beautiful quad. We are flying a Phantom 3 and a Mavic Pro, a P$ Obsidian would make a great addition. Great giveaway!

Someone on our city council was not happy with the idea of "drones" buzzing around our city, even though they are not common here. All it took was a little chat and a video on my phone to get this council woman to change her attitude. Showing her the 107 license and the FAA registration, and...
