RE: Need help taking off? I did it! I did it!
donxavier,
That video of the flying site didn't show much. How about a 360 degree shot. This hobby involves a certain degree of judgement to be used to maintain the safety of those around you. You seem to lack that judgement. AMA membership is desirable primarily for the liability coverage it provides. You don't have to belong to an AMA chartered club but you do have to abide by the safety code in order to be covered. On the take-off video, you went near a parked car. If you had accidentally hit that car, could you afford to pay to fix the damage? Two words for you. Reasonable. Prudent. Question: In taking off and flying in that area, were your actions reasonable and prudent? Answer: No. Please try to temper your enthusiasm with a little discretion.
