I'm somewhat on the fence as I might develop a business, but it isn't a big deal to me. That doesn't mean that I don't care what happens on the commercial end, as I do. But, I'm more concerned about any actions taken against the multi-rotor hobbyist.
The media is really slamming us and that worries me. The media doesn't seem to care about the loss of life from military drones or our loss of our freedoms overall, with cameras everywhere.
No, they are focused on hobbyist's flying 'drones' in their own property, a park, a field, all with permission. Some of these military drones could cause a LOT of damage, or loss of life if crashed on private or public property. It is SO unfair and we are catching the heat from our RC crafts, being 'drones.'
Since they are considered drones, by the media, ours seem to be considered as very dangerous and they are capable of spying on a neighbor. Yes, we could do that. But, so can military and private sector satellites. There is public access to satellites, with their imaging equipment aiming at planet Earth! So can low flying public, military and private aircraft.
Then, high flying planes, with the right equipment could do the same. Mainly military planes. As I recall, a lawsuit against Google, resulted in lowering the resolution of the images we can access.
YET, WE are what concerns, at least, America at this point in time!! Careless operators will destroy it for all of us. It isn't fair, but that is where we are. A VTOL plane, that I posted about, can carry a pound of cargo. This could be two Heros or a small bomb. Yet, multi-rotors, AKA drones, is the focus.
Maybe I'll just buy the VTOL PLANE and avoid all of this! No. I will hang in to the end, doing what I can to defend our rights, along with buying the new Ora and the VTOL plane!
