    Gary I believe so. Maybe not ITAR but EAR. Possibly under ECCN9A012-A

    Does that mean you could still use the Iphone OS to remotely control something if the location is not involved? Would a crude IMU be allowed?

    After the Parrot video showing golfers being buzzed, I guess I'm not too surprised.

    The wording is a little confusing. "location based APIs" - does that leave the door open for a ground station whereby the control of the vehicle is on board and the iPhone just displays attitude, heading and position and maybe allows way point uploading? In that case the iPhone is not acting as the navigator.
