before making a FAA fuse about 400ft read the YouTube video Description
Thank you very much for watching!!!
It will take me a min. but I will post you a photo of howHow do you maintain Line of Sight if your UAS is above the clouds?
Enjoy the "hobby" freedom while you can because the new Federal Regs will probably hamper many flights like this.

The Complete flight was < 6 mins It was a rainy day with a short break in the rain I saw a perfect chance to get footageThat is neat.
Be careful up there in the fog as it may affect the VPS and your flight time could be reduced when the Spark thinks it is landing when it's still way the heck up there and it will be a slow decent until it does land, whether on it's own or gravity when the battery is dead.
Litchi or a modded app(?) can be installed to turn OFF the bottom sensors, but slow down when you get close to the ground since they are OFF.

Its out of respect Al That i allow you to look behind the curtain
For me its all smoke and mirrors .This is my take off spot their is six of us standing directly below . i fly to the edge of the FOG and Abra Cadabra .... Im Above the Clouds . For any one else with faa Questions please Read the YouTube description . You Rock Al
As I am coming to understand the FAA is about to release a lot of new Rules guidelines and regulations that will prohibit a flight like this in the future .
Nice one Roy Very atmospheric...
What is the specific regulation or rule that would be broken under the soon to be proposed FAA guidelines?
Please explain!
I cant say for sure but I hear a 500ft below a could limit and 2000 ft from a cloud horizonal . this is not fact! just hear say
lol some guy in south California.Wow. That's very specific. What is your source?
lol some guy in south California.
I am not aviating for it . I want to see the VLOS reversed if your using a DJI GPS Drone ! Personal I only follow FAA out of respect for people that know more then I do . DJI has put millions into they're drones. the US armed forces as well as Law enforcement use them !
I would like to see the FAA involve DJI and the other 3% of Drone manufactures allowing the software to decide where we can and cant fly , soooooo all of us can focus on Fun / Art / and enjoying our hobby . Not being bogged down and worrying if we're doing the right thing !
Its the only way into the future of Drones .
They are not going away ..
Only More and more of us over time...
FAA get with the times and everyone can move safely into the Future !
I like your enthusiasm. I am fighting cynicism regarding the future of our beloved hobby.
The government sees drones as a threat. I am pleasantly surprised that recent and proposed regulations are actually less restrictive. Go figure. I suspect this is temporary.
Technology is our mistress but also our enemy. As drones become more powerful it will bring much excitement but the perceived threat will also escalate.
As a Chinese company DJI is not a favored company.
I feel like I am watching in slow motion a game already in checkmate. Drones aren't going away but I fear only commercial entities and government will have the privilege of flying unmanned aircraft.
I think the FAA is getting on board with the tech, they have outsourced their new drone flight planning app to a big league player that does it better than anyone and i think in time it will be be a drone connected app. The rules are pretty simple now though using the FAA planning app.lol some guy in south California.

I feel you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if the US wants a drone leader then they should act like it . until theny do DJI is King
My point it should be up to the manufacturer of the product to regulate , the FAA might be out of touche with the VLOS ?
