Is the general public capable of making the distinction between "drone" and model airplane? Like you, I fear that fear mongering, will drive policy. What do I tell people when they ask? Is it the camera, the physical characteristics of the craft, the reason for the flight, money or a combination of all, or is that too much for the general public to grasp. I see that the AMA is trying to get the education out, but is it too little too late? It's going to be difficult to stand against the tidal wave of public opinion.
