Sadly, not always. Hence the problem, the ones that always have to push the limit.
It is sad but its true and there will be some who not only give our hobby a bad name but the club's flying field too. In the past years we have lost flying fields for many reasons and i dont want to loose any because bad drones pilots are using them for their home base. joe
Sadly, some miscreants use guns, Ryder trucks and airliners to commit mass murders. Guns, Ryder trucks and airliners should be banned.
Seriously, if your club cannot enforce a simple rule that prohibits flying beyond the boundaries of the designated flyover area, why have rules at all?
But, cj,
Is there not a significant number of Americans willing to ban certain types of guns, and even all guns, because of the actions of a few?
Before boarding an airliner, does one not have to submit to metal detectors and body scans in order to prove he/she is not capable of downing the aircraft (because our government suspects all passengers are potential criminals)?
I hate that it is that way, but it is, and it is a real concern wrt FPV.
Our hobby has progressed to the point that FPV makes it easy to step over a line not previously crossed before (notwithstanding Maynard Hill).
And people outside of some of the choir here are uncomfortable with the possibilities.
