The problem is there is a difference between dreaming and doing something illegal. It is great the guy has an idea, but there are rules for this for reasons. I dont care where you fly it, it is still violating FAA rules. I am in the UAV industry and am currently overseas flying them for my job. We are very highly trained, not just beginning R/C guys. Most of the external pilots today are top R/C guys as well. Plus doing autonomous flight isnt as simple as it sounds..there are MULTIMILLION dollar UAV's out there that still can't get it right. This is not a toy and can be very dangerous,

I commend him for the idea, but doing it himself is not the wya to do this,
