Just as Bicycles aren't regulated as Motorcycles are , So too should LOS model aircraft be subject to far less regulation than Tim's flying robot cameras should . Just common sense to some that the more evolved craft with enhanced capabilities should be considered a "new breed" and have a set of sensible operating guidelines of it's own , taking into account it's DIFFERENCE from a traditionally flown LOS model aircraft . Tim wants us all lumped in together , exactly what the AMA did , and now literal toy planes have to be registered like a Cessna , GREAT JOB TIM , maybe next we can have physical exams before being allowed to hold a TX too !!!!!!
