Flying has provided an education and bonding experience with my children. This hobby teaches engineering, advanced computer skills, and requires in depth problem solving. I love this hobby and want to continue to participate. I am in favor of making the sky’s safer in a reasonable way.

Flying matters to me because it is my only release. all of my quadcopters would be grounded if they required RemoteID, Flying fields are boring and you are competing for airspace with others. I prefer to fly out in the sticks with only my spotter and friends. I never fly over 150ft altitude and have

I’ve been in love with aviation ever since I was a boy. RC flight has allowed me to participate in flying in ways I never thought possible. It gives me a creative outlet and a hobby I love in addition to bringing me closer with my own children, family and friends.

Flying checks the boxes of learning and tinkering, relaxing after a hard week at work, socializing with like-minded people, and just doing something I’m extremely passionate about. No other activitiy has been as fulfilling as flying something I built.

I little over a year ago, I came across some YouTube videos from Flite Test that taught me how to build a small free-flight glider called the Sparrow. I traced and cutout the parts, and then gave the parts to Lily, my daughter who was three years old at the time, to color with crayons.

This hobby helps me bond with friends, family and meet new people. I do not feel that the rules should be as strict as proppossed by the FAA, however, there are a few pilots who are flying in restricted areas must be addressed.

I’ve been interested in flight since I was a child. This began for me as a hobby and a way to learn by doing. Building and designing aircraft (planes and multirotors) lead to my learning to work with advanced electronics, designing circuits, CAD modelling and countless other skills I’ve picked up along the way. None

I am a teacher and currently have a semester where students learn to fly via FPV and autonomously. Students learn the entire process from soldering, 3d printing, construction to setting up missions and learning control on the sticks. This is a highlight of the year for a lot of students and teaches them valuable skills

Why are you trying to regulate RC aircraft more than unregulated ultra-lite aircraft?

Flying represents freedom. It represents the ability to soar above and accomplish things that were before in attainable. It’s research, innovation, development, and education all rolled up into a package waiting for you to discover it. This hobby has been my personal PTSD reduction and management tool since I retired from the US military. Also,

I am the mechanical lead for my universities UAV team that participates inter university competitions. FAA will be setting a standard other countries will copy, I cannot test fly any gear that is over 250g, and making any quad under that weight limit triples the price of an already expensive hobby.
