I just received this article from one of my broadcast trade magazines:

Drone Rules Wend Through Congress

"Deputy Administrator of Drones".........

One of your congessmen, Rodney Davis, today filed an amendment to the forthcoming AIRR Act, which if accepted would classify the Phantom as a "Micro Drone".

"Micro Drone" Classification Added to AIRR Act - DRONELIFE

Now if only he would have included wording to drop the registration requirement for "Micro Drones"
Otherwise, it's not really much of a change. Seems an effort to halt further restrictions.
I'd bet he owns a Phantom or two

Maybe DJI should give a free Phantom 3 to all US Congress members...for educational purposes related to their jobs, of course) let em feel the fun
Maybe then things would turn our way?

Surely that IS putting them in the hands of idiots...
