My latest creation ..

[Romain / rXg]

Of course it makes senses for flying ... I was just not aware of them,
maybe because i never piloted a remote control Plane ...
I m not sure if french pilots pay those inssurance ... I used to know a guy
who the had the same passion for Remote control planes but never told me
about those rules ...

For submarines I didn t think about the 2.4GHz issue ... Damn me ... :)
