I would like to know how your AMA chartered club is handling the appearance of these types of aircraft at your field? Are they welcome, not allowed etc? We have had a rouge flyer appear in our area flying autonomous aircraft and is clearly not abiding by the AMA guidelines for such aircraft. Obviously we do not want him as a member, but are these types of aircraft a threat to our existence as more conventional aircraft are our focus? We certainly do not want a news report of an out of control UAV or FPV aircraft originating from our club field.
Being that this is a new area of model aviation, it seems the clubs need to address how we handle these types of aircraft. I am wondering if the FAA is even going to allow them in the near future. I am sure they will be taxed or regulated heavily.
