U hit the problem on the head but we must make it knowen whatwhen and where thses R/C Toys are allowed to be flown. If Laws were in place , Like Drunk Drivers no one tries to eliminate automobiles When Drunks Kill People the Drunk / Roug R/C Quad flyers will have to asume the responsibility for their actions, Not all R/Cers for what one idiot does.

That's exactly why the Rouge Quad Flyers and everyone that sells Quad have to be Educated on Where When And How Quads may be flown. I've Proposed here many times, that, Like New Zealand has, that any one flying anything R/C within 5 KM or miles what ever have a special LICENSE proving they know the rules and Safety Code and the FAR's. Many people here have taken me to task for this but when the Preferable SHEIT hits the fan and all R/C Flying Toys are Banned. Well let's just hope it doesn't happen.

Making R/C Quads Illegal is like Banning Guns it don't work. So if We can't get together and come up with some REAL Solution to the Rouge R/C Pilot other than BAnning Quads then we deserve what ever Sheit storm be falls us and all R/C Flyear.

Guess we can take off the wings and run them up and down the runway or drag them.
The Roundy Round car guys sure ain't gona allow a 40 precenter with a 222 cc QUAD cylinder on their track where they still run .21 CU Engines, and have a good time doing it and they can do it right next to the Airport Fence.
