OK - thanks. There goes the budget for the new MR, or two :cool: I read somewhere that only 7 -10 hours training in a balloon would count - true? (assuming passing all exams)

What would the average cost be for attaining a Sport license - including plane rental and instructor?

After linking my Orange FASST 8Ch receiver to my Futaba T14SG, and connecting my flight battery, I don’t get any stick response in Baseflight, under the Receiver tab, The receiver has a solid green light and a slow blinking red. I have the Naze32 Rev 6 board. Any suggestions for what I can...

I wonder why the cockpit looks like a coffin to me? :eek:

OK - thanks for your reply. Since I do want to race it, sounds like I should go with the Naze. But I would much rather just fly the dang thing then learn how to program it - does not seem to be much documentation / software for the new rev 6, yet.

I purchased a ZMR 250 and loving the build, until I got to the Naze 32 Afro Rev 6:eek: I've only flown a Naza Lite - anybody see any problems using it instead??? Not much room on these little 250's - will I have problems with 'noise" from the video tx affecting the Naza Lite? With the Naze32...

Here is a link to their latest effort: http://view.exacttarget.com/?j=fe5c1178776104757214&m=fec815777563057a&ls=fdbd157372670c757014777762&l=fe8f1377766c047877&s=fe211378746d047d7d1178&jb=ffcf14&ju=fe3b11717666047d751578&r=0

I would think that the best group for this would be the AMA.

For BLOS operations, I really do not have a problem with heavy regulations - I believe that it is needed. I just hope that the FAA realizes that that sort of regulation is not needed for LOS below a couple hundred feet.

So much for the mandate from Congress... I would rather the FAA falter too, if I were them, but I'm not sure they have much pull, yet.

Ah - I'll take that as a no............ Bummer I kind a liked it

Does anybody think that the FAA will come up with a plan that is close to their original proposal?

FUNNY!

Article I read said a taskforce assembled has until November 20 to come up with a plan. The wait continues..... http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/oct/19/faa-private-drones-registration-safety-concerns

I hope its not as dire as this thread portends - you guys are bumming me out! :eek: Maybe there will be some good news tomorrow.....

After watching a couple of his landings, sure showed the worth of making it all waterproof!

This multirotor can lift a person - great fun to watch! http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/hoverboard-duru-1.3270569

Just everybody waiting/speculating when the FAA is finally going to do something - with the general consensus of the end of 2016. Envolving the question of do you wait, or go thru the time and money of a 333...... Dezy

I thought the conference was great! Quite the variety of attendees - lawyers, ex-military, utilities, farming, education, insurance, pilots, law enforcement..... The big announcement was from DJI regarding the new Inspire camera; About 2500 in attendance from around the world. Thanks, Dezy

OK - If I see anything interesting, I'll see if I can post a pic or two! Until then, Dezy
