I think you're pretty hea...As a drone owner...<br /><br />I think you're pretty heavy handed about the regulations. Of course, it's only a matter of time before some idiot causes a major disaster with his/her drone. I'm OK with registration and licensing. I'm not OK with location transmission.<br /><br />My three pound drone can go over 1500 feet high at a distance of 1.25 miles moving at 30 mph, all the while transmitting video in 1080p HD. However, just because I own a "Ferrari" doesn't mean that I get to push its performance, especially in controlled airspace (i.e., within 30 nm of MSP). In uncontrolled airspace, aircraft use pretty common sense rules. Drone pilots have the same responsibilities.<br /><br />By the way, local law enforcement has no jurisdiction over airspace enforcement, although they could cite someone on disturbing the peace or disorderly conduct for misusing the drone to annoy or interfere with the privacy of others.ebeamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17922162386591434891noreply@blogger.com
