Hope you will understand the situation and please do not take it personal. There is a lot at stack here and since drones and FPVs have been invading the markets RC community has suffered and struggled much pretty anywhere in the world to preserve the integrity of the hobby and its particularity.
Best regards,
Absolutely agree with you extra300. Thisis a terrible idea. Sergio: Imagine how you would feel if you lost control of your model and it killed someone... a child for instance. It is not only the turbine, but the FPV link itself is not reliable. And since you are BLOS, you can only sit therecand wait for the model to crash. Not a big deal on a foamy, but very dangerous with turbine or gas powered aircraft. That is why BLOS is prohibited in our country (AMA) and likely FAA.
Lastly, with the concerns governments have over terrorists and weaponized drones, I doubt you want to wind up on an Argentine government terrorist list.
Please rethink this.
