Or actually flying around for the first time after learning how to hover. I must have spent a month's ration of adrenaline. Smile | :)

I see that drones are something completely different from RC aircraft. Drones are automated tools used to collect information, while RC aircraft are all about the joy of flight.
That may be, but one of those will fail sooner or later and I don't want to be the one on who's head it's going to fall, nor the one who is responsible for a bug that led to the accident.

For those who don't have any unlimited budgets and only access to equipment off the rack there still is no alternative to learning how to fly. No cool feature is going to get you off the hook when an accident happens.

I, too, have worked in the aerospace industry. I've worked on fixed wing, rotary aircraft, and space programs. They have no bearing on what it's like to fly, whether it is a passenger aircraft or an RC aircraft.
My first job after school was more to learn how to knock aircraft out of the sky. Certainly the fastest things I will ever get to remote control. Smile | :)
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.
