Much of the U.S. is rural and sparsely populated. Where I live we barely have reliable cell service and my internet is limited to a DSL connection. I own a 200 acre farm and these regulations would prohibit me from flying over my own property. I do not believe we will ever, in my lifetime,
I’m recovering from extreme anxiety that has kept me house bound for 6yrs! Having something I put time in researching, planning to create plans and then building and tweaking them. Has created enough emotional investment to force myself out of the house to test and fly them. It has even given me the courage to

Honestly all of the proposed new restrictions will likely have me sell my gear and concentrate on my other interests. Too much complication and negativity with big brother squashing the little guy (per usual,) so
If we compare risks to the public from UAS (drones) with automobiles, we can draw analogies backed up by a century of regulatory and commercial experience. Under 250g is like bicycles.

Learning to fly FPV drones has given me the ability to have a little fun and learn new skills that can eventually open up new sources of revenue for me. This is a big deal since I’ve missed over 3 months of work due to some health issues. Flying drones has given me a good
