So, interesting reading and commentary so far. At our US friends, if we come down there, we have to register our drones with the FAA, so not much different, however, it looks like it is easier to do so, less paper.
I agree about the weight classes... it does seem absurd to lump this in to one category. And while it may be a pain in the a$$ to many to register and take the test, if it saves just one life, it was worth it to me.
I am not certain that a spark free-falling from 400 feet would not in fact kill someone, or seriously maim them, head injuries tend to be permanent.
Not a big fan of government interference, but Canada is loaded with it, so I am sort of used to finding ways to comply. Considering the EU, and many other countries have insanely restrictive rules, total bans in some cases, in that perspective, I'd say we are still well off. We got 100 feet more altitude for our $15. |
