“FPV IS MY LIFE , IM A DISSABLED PENSIONER WHO HAS LIMITED RESOURCES , FPV HAS RESERECTED MY LIFE , ONCE I WAS DRIFTING ,USING NARCOTICS , BASICALLY RUINING MY LIFE ,BUT FPV HAS GIVEN ME A REASON TO LEARN NEW SKILLS , I COULD NOT USE A COMPUTER ,I COULDNT SOLDER , I KNEW ABSOLUTLY NOTHING ABOUT ELECTRONICS , NOW IVE LEARNED ABOUT DIFFERENT RADIO FREQUENCIES , BASICALLY EVERYTHING TO DO WITH RADIO CONTROL ,HOW THE PATERN OF CERTAIN ANTENNAS WORK , HOW TO FLY SAFLEY. I HAVE LEARNED HOW TO USE A COMPUTER QUITE WELL NOW AND I WAS COMPUTER ILLITERATE I HAVE STUDIED PHOTOGRAPHY AND HOW TO EDIT VIDEOS AND HOE TO GET THE BEST SETTINGS FOR CERTAIN SITUATIONS ,WHICH HAS LED ME TO JOINING A PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO CLUB . FPV HAS CHANGED MY LIFE ,I HAVE A WHOLE DIFFERENT TYPE OF FRIENDS , FAMILY MEMBERS ,RESPECTED MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY , ,IT OPENED A WHOLE NEW LIFE FOR ME , INSTEAD OF SPENDING MONEY OF ILLEGAL THINGS I SPEND IT ON FPV THINGS LIKE PARTS TO BUILD A QUAD , ,THINGS THAT BETTER MY LIFE , IT CARRIES ON DOWN THE LINE , FROM WORKING ON YOUR CAR SO YOU CAN GET TO PLACES TO FLY , ITS OPENED UP TRAVELLING TO PLACES AND MEET PEOPLE I WOULD NOT NORMALLY MEET OR GO TO , ITS MY LIFE , IT GIVES ME A PURPOSE TO GET UP IN THE MORNING ,IT MAKES ME COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE I WOULDNT NORMALLY SEE . I BELIEVE ONLY THING THAT MIGHT BE NEEDED IS A KNOWLEDGE TEST ON SAFTY AND WERE TO FLY , PEOPLE WHO CAN SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON A DRONE THEY CAN TAKE OUT OF THE BOX , USUALLY NEVER READ THE MANUAL ,IGNORE ALL THE WARNINGS ,GO TO THE MIDDLE OF A CITY AND TAKE OF THINKING IT HAS SENSORS AND GPS , AND WATCH THEIR DRONE FLY OFF INTO THE SUNSET RUNNING AFTER IT HOLDING THE CONTROLLER UP IN THE AIR FRANTICALLY PUSHING BUTTONS , THEY ARE THE PEOPLE WHO NEED TO BE MONITORED ,99.9% OF PEOPLE WHO BUILD AND FLY THEIR OWN DRONES KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND KNOW THE LIMITATIONS OF THE QUAD , ITS DRONES LIKE DJI MAVIC /PHANTOM WHICH HAVE FULL AUTONOMOUS FLIGHT THAT SHOULD BE REGULATED , THEY ALLWAYS FLY AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE TO CAPTURE MORE IN THEIR FOOTAGE , COMPARED TO THE AVERAGE FREE STYLE PILOT WHO RARLY GOES HIGHER THAN 80FT-100FT AND KNOWS HOW TO FULLY CONTROL THE MODEL , WERE MOST NEW DJI PILOTS COULDNT FLY MANUALLY IF THEY TRIED IN OTHER WORDS IF A SYSTEM FAILS THEY HAVE NO WAY OF CONTROLLING THERE QUAD,PLEASE MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION AND LEAVE OUR HOBBY ALONE DONT LET COMMERCIAL BUSINESS RUIN A TIME TESTED HOBBY”
