Son, if you don't look good in a 458, You're just not gonna look good! Sorry.

P.S. Any of those red things with the horse on the front is pretty cool.

I actually re-read what @Evil86 said, and I believe he's saying that the California is the one to 'be seen' in because it's a convertible, and thus, people can 'see you' in the car (with the top down). There are a number of other Ferrari convertibles, but that's what I took from it.

Potentially, thus all of these events are taking place in Mexico. SOME people *cough* @Yruyur *cough* keep getting Mexico and parts of Arizona confused.

I would add that @Yruyur 's wheels have been tested at even higher speeds, also in Mexico.

I did the plane FPV awhile back, then got into helicopters, now doing Multi rotors......multi rotors are the most stable platform for most aerial photography, planes are the most thrilling speed-wise, helicopters are hands down the most fun for aerobatics......

FPV, depending upon frequency may require a technician grade or better HAM radio license.....I run 1.2 / 1.3 GHz equipment and have to have a HAM license.

Just flying in certain areas will require permission from either the property owner (private land), Government office (State / Federal land), or the event organizer and property owner at a sporting event (auto cross / NASCAR / Football, ect). The permission should, actually must, be in written form and signed by the official / property owner and you with the dates / time allowed for the flight.........

Flying while filming could require a FAA certification as a commercial aircraft if you publish the video / pictures. If the video / pictures are posted you lose control on how the posted items is used and can be considered commercial use if someone uses them for profit (say GoPro uses it in a commercial on TV).

Generally all of the above is not an issue for most FPV pilots (you do need the HAM license for the transmitters) as long as your flying at a AMA / RC flight park or your own backyard.........once you get into the flying I do it becomes a legal hassle.

One of my "birds" is currently being looked at for commercial use by a few very "large" entities, due to this I have high visibility to the governing regulators and have to watch my P's and Q's......so to speak.
