Interesting.

There's a couple of blokes who fly them at my site. They are really "into" the FPV technology ... or, rather, they were.

They were telling me, the other day, that they have a hankering for the simplicity of sport LOS flying; that the hassle-factor of FPV seriously detracts from the pleasure. I expect that's a precursor to abandoning that aspect of the hobby.
