Someone (not me) should just accept $20 paypal payments. All the names will be published of who bought in. Cutoff time will be 5pm. Copies of tickets will be emailed to the people that bought in. $1dollar additional should be included to offset the paypal transfer fee and the labor.

We have a massive group here. I'd buy in.

That was the better handling of the two, but I kinda think the reason to buy a supercar is to be seen in the car, so the California would be the way to go.

For the most part, this is true. I preferred the 430 over the Gallardo. This may be the exception....

Private property (with permission) and designated flying locations no problem..........areas where people gather and / or structures are present----> BIG problems.

Last nights video was a fail , too dark and what was visible had the "jello effect", this is caused by a rotor out of balance or stability problem (no ground lock, and it wanted to follow everything that moved under it ).

I am going to build a smaller Tri-Rotor that can carry a Go-Pro for the Coffee / Pavilions meets.........the AR Drone cameras just don't work in low light....

Have I mentioned how much I detest all these rules just to have a hobby............
Is this to fly these FPV? I wish I would have been there the other night. I have some old FPV gear that I have wanted to install in a plane. I thought of putting it in my TREX500, but figured it would be better to start with planes.

Sounds like you need to mount a lumia 92x/1020 with low light camera and optical image stabilization.
