I haven't seen many Phantoms out in the wild and I've seen no Inspires. Maybe it's different where you live but I'd hardly call it a swarm. As far as the drone industry, the vast majority of those gifts under the Christmas tree this year were single operators machines with FPV capabilities. If...

I wasn't talking about flying exclusively FPV. I was talking about glancing down at your video feed. Within the last year I purchased some goggles and completely agree with that. You're situational awareness is really poor, especially when you first start out. But if you have a video monitor at...

This is why it needs to be challenged. It's been said and argued that those are regulations and not laws. It would be interesting to see what local law enforcement would charge you with if you failed to comply. It's also worth mentioning that the "regulations" state that the operator need to...

I hope someone fights these laws in court. This is the one thing that may hold me back from getting an inspire. That's a lot of money to have tied up in something I can't use..
