[QUOTE="DJ_EYE, post: 25627, member: 4806"] Think about how soon a Spark would be 'Out of Visual Range' , it's so small, realistically unless you have super powers, at 140x140mm dimensionally it's out of visual range after you climb or move beyond approx 40m, which is pointless. I'll be honest and say 99% of the time, mine is well out of visual range, otherwise I'd simply carry a camera with me and forget the Spark altogether. To me, flying a Military Blackhawk Helicopter at less than 100m over a populated area for no strategic or protective reason, THAT is the truly moronic issue. I've flown a kite higher than that! BUT I'm expecting the USA gung-ho patriotism to shine in the replies. Go 'murca! All that military technology and somehow Neanderthals living in caves with cold war era weapons are giving the US Military a run for their money. I call bull$hit on that 'war'. Just like the fact they will never allow a cure for cancer as it's now a billion dollar industry, so is your war. Way too much of a bu$ine$$ now to stop it. [/QUOTE]
