Just how IS it that I should be responsible for the health insurance bill for someone who won't pay for it themselves ? Do I next pay their CAR insurance cause that'd be good for society also ? Buy em a couple of cartons of smokes and a case of beer for good measure while I'm at it ? I wasn't going to post here again but this "let the middle class carry it , Hell , it's only ONE more tax" attitude of yours is just about as repulsive as your protestations for dignified conversation all the while calling your opponents things like "bozos" ! Don't forget , Mr. She , that it was right HERE in BOSTON where the first great tax revolt took place , you may remember "the Boston Tea party" ? Those folks were just on about paying taxes to a government that wouldn't allow them a voice . The next great tax revolt will come when all us lil worker bees are finally taxed BEYOND our ability to pay , and with the ideas of guys like yourself , that day draws nearer than one might imagine .
Tell ya what , kid , ya learns some manners , and then maybe we'll talk again ......

You are right about who bears the taxes though, the part in power last administration gave tax breaks to the wealthy and placed the burden on the rapidly shrinking middle class.
Just so you know, in case you haven't read the declaration of independence. It wasn't so much about the tax but the lack of representation in parliament that stated us on our revolting path.

When I started to read this forum I thought it to be a sensible discussion on the ability of an Unmanned flying object piloted by someone on the ground (generalising) to affect damage to an aircraft regardless of the size of either vehicle.
The fact that the damage may or may not cause serious injury or death is not the point.
The point is that a UAV should not be in the vicinity of any manned aircraft regardless of how KOOL it would be to get some inflight pics.
We in OZ have max altitude and separation rules and to go beyond these puts the whole modelling industry and sport at risk
It will be the recognised model clubs and organisation that will pay for the individual screwing it up
Why the bloody hell did you lot turn it into a personal and political slanging match.
Have a good day

The incredible longevity of this thread at the #1 spot finally motivated me to jump in and see what all the FPV fuss is about. Been getting out of jets the last few weeks, ever since word came down that the Navy was permanently banning Holley OLF to rc use, and have been looking for something I can fly from my house.
My DJI Phantom 2 Vision + arrived today...can't wait to get it up and running, and check out FPV for the first time!! Should be fun

^^^^ LOL...indeed, being not plugged in to who's on what side of the issue here, I suppose any postings will need to be done carefully!
Yes, I hope to get some good videos. WITH PERMISSION, I'd like to see if I can get some aerial footage of our youth football championship games next Saturday.

Yea , I figured with all your talk of whose "off their meds" and who needs "tinfoil hats" , I'd bump it down to your apparent level of interest in this conversation . Face it , pal , when you go throwing such trollbait around YOU devolve the thread . Own it , and stop this BS of making lowbrow comments yourself and then TRYING to come off as some kind of intellect when challenged for your garbage posts . You sir , most certainly DO bear just as much responsibility for this train wreck of a thread as anyone !

1 FPV is an interesting emerging technology.
2 FPV is of interest to hobbyists such as most of us on this thread because it looks like fun
3 FPV can be used safely and sensibly
4 I myself am not that much interested in FPV to purchase any equipment
5 However, I hold no opposition for safe FPV use
6 I think the views of most people are pretty complicated also.

And can a farmer compensate me to get a look at his crops, herd etc?
Being as deer season just opened here, can I scout an area for deer, for beer?
What about the 250' smoke stack on a factory, can I video the inside and outside for a family member who is in charge of it? For money

I am not sure that the list would do any good. My views on FPV are pretty complicated. In short sentences:
1 FPV is an interesting emerging technology.
2 FPV is of interest to hobbyists such as most of us on this thread because it looks like fun
3 FPV can be used safely and sensibly
4 I myself am not that much interested in FPV to purchase any equipment
5 However, I hold no opposition for safe FPV use

Let's say somebody fly's at 1500 Ft, model aircraft, and a small full scale aircraft hits the plane you are flying, anywhere, and the plane crashes from that, you are in a heap of trouble,then if, a Loss of Life, by the manned Aircraft Pilot or his passengers, Then what? That, has not happened yet to my knowledge, but as more and more younger people get involved in this great hobby, it's bound to happen someday, when? who knows.? Then the S.H.T.F.
My argument is why would someone fly something like an R/C Airplane, Drone, etc, beyond VLOS, you can't see it! Where is the fun in that? To me it's like having a Remote Controlled Submarine, OK , some people like doing things they can't see, but where is the fun in that? Take photos of somebody? That's Illegal. E.O.S. Photos of land, personal property, that's ok in my book. But remember, if you violate AMA Flying Rules, your at Risk.
These Forums bring up everything, from Politics to anything else,and always have always will. 50% of the people will disagree, and 50% will approve.
What you have is a debate, nothing else gets resolved on this R/C Website completely.
