walden@wetshav.ing 1 week agoI think we allow quads and helicopters, but I’ve only seen a quadcopter flown to record fixed wings :-)
A helicopter guy showed up one day when I was there and at first I thought “hey cool”, but then I realized when they’re flying you can’t take off or land… they block the whole runway!

What’s fun with FPV quads is doing acrobatics at high speed near things. I like that, and I really like flying FPV through close terrain. Flying at a field is just boring, therefore, most of us guerilla fly. Because of this, I haven’t done it in a couple of years.
The guys who are good with helicopters are just scary. They typically do crazy 3D acrobatics a few feet from where they are standing on the field.
