Podcast 32 – The RCGroups FAA Podcast Learn about the new FAA memo and what it means to you.

[RcHeliResource 1]

This month we discuss the FAA memo and how it affects the RC hobby.

 

The FAA dropped a big bomb on the RC hobby. The big question is what does it all mean? In this month’s podcast we delve into the ramificationsof the FAA’s memo.

I brought RCG staffers Jason Cole and Matt Gunn into the conversation. Both of these pilots have been into FPV for many years.

We talk to Rich Hanson and Dave Mathewson from the AMA to get their viewpoints and to find out what we can do to have our voices heard on this topic.

I also spoke to Tim from ReadyMadeRC. Tim specializes on FPV equipment and he gives us his take on this sticky situation.

The thing to remember here is that it’s not just FPV the FAA is attempting to control. They also want to stop paid demo pilots and more.
