I agree to a point . . . . The original Typhoon was marginal and nowhere near as refined as our drones today. However the H Plus was a refinement beyond the original and mounted a 1" camera equal to a Phantom4 or a Mavic 2 Pro (which I also have). While Yuneec's drones were unrefined; their...

You're basically describing a professional 'cinema' drone, albeit with a few exceptions - in those drones there is no need to randomly film in multiple directions for no reason. There is a forward facing camera for the pilot who must fly a given path (similar to our drones), and then a separate...

That this guy has any followers or sympathizers, is a sad comment on the state of remote piloting today; especially in light of how he has conducted himself since his first contact with the FAA. He conceals his arrogance and extreme anti-authority positions with his abundant and willful...

Though the AMA was formed in 1936 and put on organized events such as the "NAT's" (Nationals), dating back that far, the idea for 'charter' clubs wasn't put into place until sometime in the mid 1960's. There was no rule that said you couldn't fly RC on a private piece of land by yourself, it's...

Then he was not in VLOS and at fault. Three simple words - "See And Avoid" have been at the core of UA's very existence in the NAS since the beginning. It is our primary job as UA pilots to see an avoid all manned aircraft. Period. It is why we must currently fly VLOS. There is no airspace...

Got a Typhoon HPlus I picked up on 4th July- she is “Independence”. Needed a drone that was smaller and easier to pack and carry so when I got my Magic 2Pro, the name “Freedom” seemed appropriate

Correct. If we're flying a 107 flight, as a commercial pilot -CBO guidelines have no bearing on what I do. We simply adhere strictly to the 107 regulations for the entirety of that flight. But by the same token, if I want to go a make a 'recreational' flight - I/we (107 operators), are now...

Since 2014 there have been 700 Tesla Auto Pilot (AI) crashes with 19 of them involving fatalities. I can't see how that has been in any way exceeding the hype. My personal opinion is that AI has been sold as the 'advancement of the future' and most folks have no idea what it is and don't really...

Ah Okay, we agree - those statements are real and came from the FAA. I did not interpret them - they need no interpretation as far as I am concerned.

Ah okay - good. So in post #29 you asked: In post #31 above I posted clear examples of where the FAA does indeed mention; compensation, monetary or other, and furthering a business, as activities that are excluded from 44809 (recreational UA flight) - thus requiring 107 certification. My...

If that is true, you may want to make posts that substantiate that.

I take it not everyone knows what it takes to monetize a channel on Youtube so I'll just say this. You can't accidentally monetize a channel - it takes effort and intent. It also takes content - a lot of it, and a continuous stream of it. None of those steps can be denied. A Monetized YouTube...

The only thing you've proven is you have very little understanding of either 44809 or 107

I've learned that most folks on this forum who say "show me" really have no interest in seeing or learning, but for the benefit of those who do wish to see and learn . . . . . The FAA considers part 107 as the default regulation (rule) for drones in the US, therefore they never say what you can...
