"That law we talked about earlier for Texas HB912 has been greatly modified since the initial submission, I have no concerns with it. It is limited to control of surveillance and specifically allows all the intended uses that I wanted to see. It does…"
"I agree BacklashRC...but why give them the ammunition they need to restrict our sport? And I did say they where guidelines. Yes I did say rules as soon some are to come out! However AC 91-57 Dated June 9, 1981 is a guideline from the FAA that…"
"I guess I should add that this is an ACT in the Texas legislation that has been passed and signed into law! This is the state that I live in and must follow their rules! I foresee the FAA doing something like this as well when all said and done. So…"
