Again U R Completly Wrong. It doesn't Really mater one Iota what U believe the FAA should or should not concern it's self with. The FAA has a mandate from Congress
1.) to Promote commercial aviation and all aviation in general
2.) to make the NAS safe for all aviation. Guess what that according to the FAA, it does include Commercial and TOY R/C Drones/Aircraft of all kinds. And it is Impossible for the FAA/NTSB ever to combat the rouge Commercial ATP Pilot that wishes to kill him self and take aboradall with him. Terrorist exempted of course.
full scale aviation as safe as possible should be the top priority at the FAA.
It is the top priority of the FAA and the FAA sees Commercial and TOY Models/Quads as a possible threat to all Aviation. Unfortunately again Not If but When an indecent/Accident occurs, the powers that be will not see the difference between the "IDIOTs" and all the R/Cers that fly responsibly.
Well you entitled to your opinion but I don;t feel I am wrong at all, From a common sense point of view once the FAA deals with the RC flyers that are causing problems to full scale
aviation and people on the ground they have no need to worry about if someone received pay to take a picture or fly at a air show. If someone is flying on their own property and
not bothering anyone the FAA has no need to bother them and RC flying should stay the same as before all this regulation stuff started.
