I didn't know that had been signed into law yet.

I have a collection of r/c aircraft from when I was a kid. According to the new rules, I need to register them. They can KMA.

This isn't guns, which actually is specifically addressed by the Constitution, regardless of how it is interpreted today. It's at least in there.

The registration process costs $5, but the FAA, in an effort to foster compliance, has said that it will waive the processing fee for users who register by January 20th, 2016.

It isn't a new law. It's a new regulation by the FAA.

Why? What do you plan on doing with it that you don't want it registered?

Nothing, it's a cheap starter drone that I got for $50 it has a camera but there is no monitor so you can't see what the camera can see anyway.

The issue being addressed doesn't require one of many words used to describe it to be directly used in the document.
Come on man. Do better.

And THIS is my issue with the whole thing. This isn't a law, like car registration, that was written by an ELECTED representative and voted upon through our governing process. This is some bullshite dreamed up by some bureaucrat and shoved down our throats. The funds from vehicle registration is legally spent on specific programs related to VOTED UPON programs. This "fee" is generating tens of millions that the Agency that came up with it can spend as they want.
If you can't see the issues here (and the issues aren't registering a flying piece of plastic) then you need to retake Civics 101. This is classic government overreach and needs to be stopped.

Everyone in this debate needs to acknowledge that there is a humongous difference between what a State can tell a citizen to do and what the federal government can tell a citizen to do. Until people go back to this very basic principle and realize that states are the entities with plenary power, not the feds, we can never meaningfully advance this debate.

Your posts have been well-meaning but completely wrong on this topic. The federal government is a government of limited power. The correct question is what gives the federal government the power to regulate drones that are purely intra-state? So, you actually need to figure that out, not point out that drones aren't mentioned so the feds can do whatever they want.

I bought 4 small drones. Is it a certain size that you have to register?
Posted on 12/23/15 at 2:37 pm to DoUrden
Dude, don't fk with the FAA, they are just as bad as messing with the IRS except they have plenty of investigators, take it form one who's in the industry.

Wrong on this topic?
You clearly have absolutely no understanding of aviation or airspace regulation/deconfliction since you've decreed this to be an intra-state issue. The regulation of territory on the ground does not translate to the right to regulate the airspace above that ground. States do not hold rights to govern their own airspace, which is exactly why it is handled by a federal agency.
The individual landowner has rights up to 83' AGL. To think the states would independently regulate this issue is completely asinine, as its principle effect would make aviation nationwide extremely difficult.

You have no idea on what basis the FAA was created, do you? The FAA is allowed to exist because of the interstate commerce clause. It's authority is circumscribed by the limits of the commerce clause. What you have done is called bootstrapping. It is probably the best illustration of you not understanding the division of power between states and the federal government.
