Well, according to what the FAA was proposing, we can fly under AMA safety code, which say line of sight, under 400 feet, and a safety pilot standing by. In the US, you can fly on board a legal ultralight, kit or factory built, meeting the FAR part 103rules which is an real full size aircraft if you will. My 70 inch Kadet flying with 3 cameras I can switch between, one that can go 360 degrees so I have as good or better visibility than a full scale, I am being severely hampered. I also have 2 strobes from life jackets that can be seen for up to 2 miles in daylight, and God only knows how far at night, mounted just like full scale on the wing tips.
