Questions: What is the true velocity, and the scale velocity? Is the pilot also filming?(!)
Can you mount a camera so you can fly from the cockpit? I don't think I'd ever be able
to fly something from a stationary external viewpoint.

What a great idea and do-able too with mini-cameras!!! I love it. These teeny cameras could be installed and transmit to a ground monitor or mini screen on the control box. Cool!

Ah, it hadn't occurred to me that would require a ham licence.
I wonder if there's a way around that...

Grilled Cheese License would work.

Actually, I think it depends on the range of the freq. A shorter freq. I would say no. He has 1-2 miles!
