    You ever try to fly an RC plane?

    Let alone one with enough payload to do anything?

    How about an RC helicopter, which is a better comparison. They’re a real removed, way harder than RC planes.

    The RC world has been somewhat exclusive for a long time - these things weren’t cheap, and not easy to fly.

    Any idiot today can fly a drone and hover where they want - just direct it where you want to go, with a camera on board. Just look at the number of drones in the last 10 years - I frequently hear them around the city, while I’ve never seen an RC plane flying around the city.
