And the term is "sense and avoid"; no eyes in the sUAS to pivot around to see what's coming from behind or the side.
The semantics of Find&Flee/Recon&RunFrom/Spot&StayAway are hardly important
Would you give 'Support for Regulations By The FAA'
requiring non-LOS recreational model craft to have Pan&Tilt camera
so they CAN look around to use Find&Flee?
(exactly like VFR flights in a c172 look around)
1. Wrong KE, there are times when the choice of word is significant. Otherwise, why not choose to call them all sUAS, forget the exemptions, and play under one definition. After all they are all purchased by commercial vendors for profit...... Maybe we could get scratch built sUAS excluded....
2. I already do. As long as it is done in accordance with AMAs document #550. I would look at rewriting itto decsribe the "buddy box" as being the mitigating factor inregard to potential"lost link" problems. Also, since aircraft approaching to land at an airport could easily be under 1000' agl, some altitude restriction <u>should</u> be considered for separation purposes when less than 5 miles fromthat airport.
