A majority of the USA love the guy and are looking forward to his re-election! He is a wonderful president, for everyone except the emotionally uncontrolled type whom he loves poking on these mediums such as twitter, while we all laugh :-+ Actions speak much louder than words! Always remember that. So this thread is about FAA rules, not your personal opinions on someone who lives on the opposite side of the globe from you, so let's get back to it :-DD --- End quote --- Then stop brining it up youself and SHUT UP! |

Whether you love or loath the US president, this isn't the place to talk about it. He should have just pressed the report button, rather than rising to it. Anyway, back on topic. I can see it from both sides. It clearly needs to be make more difficult for someone to buy an off the shelf drone and strap a load of explosives to it, but people should also be free to build their own. Perhaps people should be able to make their own RC aircraft, but it has to use approved transmitter and receiver modules, which enable the authorities to disable/track it? On the other hand the real criminals won't care and will do it anyway. |

There is a complete pointlessness to registering Radios as there is still 100,000's plural if not millions of them out there on 35, 36, 40 and 72 Meg around the world that run basic FM or the really old ones AM. There is simply no smarts in them or two way anything and the data only flows upstream on most until the more modern 2.4Ghz sets. Even the majority of these there is no GPS on the Aircraft or Heli sets just an encrypted burst with data coming back now in a lot of cases for sensors and other bits. It would be like sending out the 'vans' looking for illegal TV's in the UK today ;) Or like trying to retroactively licence all 27Meg Kids walkie talkies - FUTILE. What you introduce for new sets sold and in particular on consumer drones is another thing entirely. This is in part why DJI is sliding through without a blip in the West as they have shown extreme willingness to work with the various Federal Bodies for better or for worse and allow tracking of their product including geofencing and even the ability I understand to shutdown drones. |

Someone else started it by making an anti-Trump comment. Of course they were in the wrong and shouldn't have, but you've now caused more trouble by responding to it. --- Quote ---Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." I am a wretched, undeserving sinner saved by the gift of Christ, I am not ashamed, and I my biggest hope is that all will receive this gift of eternal life :-+ :-+ :-+ --- End quote --- And posting religious stuff like that, has nothing to do with the subject, is a good way to upset people more and get banned. |
