Too bad the FAA is grouping model aviation in with these "drone" operators. I fly a RC Turbine F86 which can do 200mph of which never had to be registered. RC helicopters, same deal. All of a sudden these easy to fly drones come on to the market available to any idiot.
So the rest of us who fly responsible get grouped in with them.

I have friends that have RC planes and I enjoy going to their competition and fun events. This is a group of 'very responsible' people enjoying their 'hobby'.
I've yet to see one of these RC hobbyist flying over peoples backyards and/or hoovering to peer into windows.
To even think that these are one of the same as these new drones and the idiots that own them is VERY wrong.
