    Uncertified Rogue Commercial Drone Operators

    The last one is the only one that mentions uav's. And until they pass and ratify a constitutional ammendment granting authority to the federal government to regulate uav's, they have no authority. The only laws the feds have the authority to make are those which are to support the powers granted...

    Uncertified Rogue Commercial Drone Operators

    There are no laws written by congress regarding private use of small uav's. Therefore, the faa can't write rules based on laws that don't exist.

    Why is everyone overlooking the fact that the faa has no authority to dictate regulations to private citizens using drones. Congress makes laws. Not the faa. They have no authority over us.

    cant update firmware in controller

    Yes I did. Thanks. It worked. I realized what I did wrong. I dragged and dropped the zipped file into the SD instead of first extracting the file, then dropping it into the SD card. I didn't know what extracting a file was until just now. I'm not as tech savy as others. Lol. Thanks for the help

    Are you guys registering your Phantoms?

    @StumbleBee: the only authority the federal government has is that which we the people have granted to it through the constitution. They have no authority to ban, regulate or in any way control anything unless they are specifically granted those powers by "we the people". Get that in your head.

    Are you guys registering your Phantoms?

    No, FAA regulations are not laws. Laws come from congress and Congress only. I follow laws. I don't follow decrees from unelected beurocracies.

    Are you guys registering your Phantoms?

    The FAA has no legislative power. All legislative power is in congress. So as soon as a constitutional ammendment is ratified by the states to grant the FAA legeslative powers, then I will register. Until then, f**k em.
