what was the "gist" of his bye message for those of us that missed it?

maybe closing the forum was a result of his poll wanting us to pay him 10 bucks a month for updates?

Surprised the DT admin posted here, but even more surprised he thought this is a good deal for us.  It screams BOHICA to me!

The most intriguing question to me is - why is someone minus-ing these posts?

could it be that you have stated many times you hate stock photography  now and stated you were going to be here less, but each day you continue to post all your typical negativity.

It still takes considerable skill to pilot one of these multicopters, plus a large investment of both time and money.  The previous version of the multicopter linked above, has many reports on RCGroups of having electronic connectivity problems which cause random crashes which usually run several hundred bucks to repair, not counting the fragile camera, if not using a gopro.

They were accepted years ago before they changed the rules.  You can add cruise ships, planes, houses, buildings and many others to the not acceptable anymore.
