Niz, goggles? Like a camera screen in the goggles to see the drones? Edit, sorry to fly the drones I mean... Without seeing it by bare eye?

The camera is mounted on front of the quad so as it feels as if you're sitting in/on it! It may not seem all that impressive in the video, but it can be a real adrenaline rush! I'm excited as I just ordered my first "real" racing drone today. It's the typical Eachine Wizard that the masses start out on haha. Cheap and FAST! I've already experienced a total noob mistake and lost my BugsB3 which was a little too fast for someone starting out. I owned it for about a week before I flew it too far away and lost orientation in the sky. I accidentally flew it away from me and as it turned into a tiny dot in the sky and I was running across the field to keep it in range, it dropped out of the sky never to be seen again! RIP Bugs3 haha. At least with this FPV racing quad, I'll be able to see where I'm travelling so things like that shouldn't happen. I still have my GPS one, but folks in the hobby don't even consider flying GPS guided quads flying as they practically fly themselves. Can't wait to get into some trouble with this one!

Flying rc heli's and planes around power lines is a huge no-no in the rc community. I'd think he could get in trouble. Just sayin. It's hella cool to watch though!

Ya I think the fact that these things are getting into the hands of the masses will uncover lots more dumb stunts like this. The older RC heli hobby fellas seem to tend to be much more conservative/conscientious/safe. Anything over 250 grams is supposed to be registered by the FAA, and technically most any quad-even toy ones from Walmart- would require a ham license which pretty much nobody gets nor is it enforced. Canada has really cracked down on drones with some super tough laws and if folks in the U.S. don't keep it safe we'll be heading the same way!

yeah a lot of people were flying them around airplanes and getting them sucked up into the jets. People are just being a little reckless tho I think. Power lines might be kinda tough...there everywhere aren't they? Lol
