We have also decided against FPV at our field. Besides having homes in close proximity, we also have an active heliport, County park, and the largest marina on the east coast right across the street. We are not against new technology, however not all flying locations can host all types of aircraft. In our case it happens to be FPV. We don't have the luxury of having an "incident" and apologizing for it. With full scale helicopters right next to us, there is no second chance.
