We have a cropcam which we are looking to sell. It comes with all hardware and software needed to fly. It also comes with a laptop computer that has a recent update to all Microsoft office software ($670). It also comes with several spare servos, parts and four batteries thunderpower batteries with an astro charger for the batteries. Two optio A20 cameras will be included for an extra $100 but the lens doesn't always open on one and the LCD is broke on the other. We are asking $6500 for the package ($8500 value). The plane has a few minor dings and fixes but is definitely flight ready. It has made only a few flights since it was sent in to cropcam for a repair and test flight. And has maybe 50 flights its hole life.To learn more about the cropcam visit their website at www.cropcam.comCall me at 402 440 2839 or email me with any questions jayme@burkeyfarms.comJayme Dick-BurkeyBurkey Farms Inc.Milford, Nebraska
Actually CropCam will be okay as long as they trim 1.6lbs. They sell to farmers who technically can comply as long as they follow the "AMA" like rules and do use the unit to provide a commercial service. RCAPA's commercial members are up the creek but then again so am I....off to get my pilots license so I can fly my 6lb rc plane... ;(
I have seen a draft of the "hammer" and trust me I am sitting here now calculating how much it is going to cost in time, effort and money to comply....lets just say the FAA are going to separate the men from the boys, and then the men from their wallets...but if you are flying at or under 4.4lbs for recreation no worries.

Interesting.
Oh well, just move up here to Canada... lots of open friendly skies.
