Oh, it was opinion you were sharing? My bad, most of the comments you were making sounded factual, like you had some data to back up what you were claiming. At least it's clear now. lol...why would anyone try to change your opinion? Have you seen that ever happen here, on any issue? Ha!

So, do you think it is a good idea for the AMA to promote FPV flying?
Yes, given your prior comments and opinions it sounded like you've been involved in the hobby for at least 30 years, I was guessing 40. I shared some info on the AMA as it didn't really appear you fully grasped what they are all about, the rocketry comments as an example. Speaking of examples, can you show me an example where the AMA is promoting FPV flying?

Yes, the sky is falling argument warning. Always trotted out when all else fails. In your 30 years of competitive modeling certainly you've seen change come to this hobby, is this the first time you've ever heard someone say "oh, this new fangled (....) will be the ruination of this hobby"? You're still flying right?
