good thing we fly quad copters and not drones lol. I feel sorry for all those bees the government is going to be arresting for gathering pollen from all the flowers.
just because the FAA is throwing out their own definition of a drone doesn't mean jack. if this passes and actually gets enforced then it's political suicide for who's ever in office.
lets play this out. firstly invasion of privacy hard to prove unless someone is making profit from it.
what if you have your 333 exemption to do commercial work, what then? what stops me from taking a 100 foot pole with a camera on it and walk around every ones houses and point it in their back yard. according to this bill that would be legal still.
lets say they snap a picture of your quad copter below 350 feet, -you can argue photoshop all day long
-the accuser is being discriminatory and racists against what ever race of the person who's doing the flying
by definition were not really flying drones.
the first time this goes to court there will be a lawyer out there dying to make a name for their self to argue the unconstitutional merits of this case and once the r/c pilot wins every other judge will follow suit and dismiss it. if a lawyer can't be found then i'll go to bat and defend the pilot and i'll get famous when i win. it will keep getting passed up the levels of court till someone makes a decision and odds are it wont be in favor of a law that basically says no r/c aircraft anywhere.
there are lots of big companies that will lose a **** load of money if something like this actually passes and is enforced. I highly doubt this will be put into law.
this is off Webster dictionary.
