It might be worse in some ways, but I&#x27;m really referring to the fact that I had to go to a specific group of people (a club) and request information. They gave me the best quality information. The same probably would&#x27;ve happened if I went to a aeromodelling shop (back then the nearest one was an hour drive away).<p>I went Christmas shopping today and saw various £200+ drones for sale in high street shops. You can walk in, buy one, and walk out no questions asked.<p>Great in many ways, terrible in others. It gives no opportunity to raises issues about liability and the fact that these things are not really toys.<p>One of the first things I learnt at my club was just how easily a prop will take off your finger (by way of a carrot). They are not toys.
