[AT] off topic ( kind of )

[Thomas Mehrkam]

Looks like a great field.
I flew RC planes for 10 or 15 years.  Haven't flown recently.  My many other hobbies and marriage have got in the way.
Looks like a lot of poles and other obstacles for an Rv field though.  Is that to knock down out of control Helicopter's?  Those things scare me to death.   
I suppose the addition of Gyros have made them more controllable but they are flying lawn mowers.  There have been some fatal accidents involving them. I have seen a couple of bloody accents up close and personal.

BO:
I inspect dams for a living and I need to get one of those remote 
controlled helicopters for videotaping the water side of the dam and 
areas I cannot walk.  I am getting partially disabled due to my back 
problems.    I cannot seem to wade through all the crap on the machine 
to buy for my use.  Could you give me some help?
