  1. So piloing your FPV yuo can fly really high, and even out of line of sight. Once the technology is better and the link to your screen is more reliable then even higher and even further. Of course I am sure you will not stray into controlled airspace. But you are not on your own in uncontrolled airspace. There are many air users flying visual flight rules in uncontroled airspace. They are all required to keep a good lookout for eachother. Man carrying aircraft are generally large enough to seen easily. A model aircraft may not be. Good as a pan and tilt camera system might be you will not have anything like a complete image of any traffic close to your model. Even a small model is large enough to cause a problem to a light aircraft, or hurt the pilot of a hang glider, paraglider or microlight. I'm sure the CAA will soon try to curtailthe flying of these FPV's. Pretty soon there will be a million unmanned observation drones up there watching over us so they won;t want FPV's as well. Our recreational aircraft  will be loaded down with instruments to warn them of our prescence, probably pricing all recreational avaition out of the sky. So if you want to fly for real, go and do it now - becuase I don't think it will be possible for most of us for much longer.
