Minnesotan's, If you are interested in learning tips and tricks together, and want a place to fly without hassle, post here. :geek:
4/19/14 Phanton Pilots Flyin set for May 3rd: SEE MY POST ON APRIL 23RD ON PAGE 19 HERE FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
We are planning the first Phantom Pilots meetup for Saturday May 3rd from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Not open to general public or non pilots. Must bring an RC craft. Mostly open to DJI Phantom Pilots and spouses. Please bring your own folding tables, chairs, foods and refreshments. Electricity available on site for charging batteries.
You must be registered with PhantomDave on this forum for this flyin and RSVP to Qwadjok at [email protected] if you are interested.
I have ten acres of land and almost a mile to any homes so no worry about neighbors.
Leave me a PM if you want to do some flying. :geek:
Cold weather doesn't stop me from getting in some flight time plus I have a large pole building so if it's windy, we can fly indoors.
4/5/14 Now that Spring is here and this dam white crap is melting off, I am keeping an eye on when we can have all your 952, 651, 612 area code quad hoppers out for our first flyin. Do I hear a Hoo ah! Phantom Dave on here has been compiling the names on a list so let him know if you are interested in joining the group.
Also, as for the "drone" language in the Minnesota Bill that PhantomDave has done so well on keeping us informed on, it would seem prudent that since city, state and county parks are paid for with tax payer dollars, that tax payers (DJI ownrs) should be able to use these parks just as bikers, kite flyers, roller-bladders, dog walkers and joggers do as long as it is in a safe manner. Roads are paid for with tax payers dollars are we are allowed to use them as long as we are safe, yet an incredible amount of people are killed each year by cars yet they are not outlawed. I see the private use of RC craft just that, and if I want to start a business with a new form of technology, why should the FAA state I do not have that right especially in airspace the FAA has no jurisdiction in below 400 feet.
Hot air balloonist clubs fly all over the country, and sell site-seeing trips and get paid to take sky divers up yet they are not banned from federal airspace and they all fly higher than 400 feet and are much more of a danger than a small RC craft that one can control. IMO
