Any cop with a triple digit IQ ought to feel pretty silly about telling guys who are out flying over a 20 acre field to cease and desist or else face arrest.
If the AMA and it's members held a unified stance about shunning drone style flight at AMA fields, we would have much firmer ground to stand upon in the eyes of the law.
The AMA field should be a sanctuary for RC flyers to be able to enjoy this hobby whether there are NOTAMS or not.
What is the definition of a drone style flight? The way I understand it the AMA rules for FPV is clear, That means your craft has to be flown line of sight
or close enough to be seen just like any other model would be. I don't see FPV as a problem but people that fly FPV with out any common sense as the
problem.
