00:00 - 00:03Some of our members believe we should separate ourselves from drones
00:03 - 00:04They believe drones are different than us...
00:04 - 00:06...because they fly autonomously.
00:06 - 00:09They fear the FAA will regulate their Piper Cubs, warbirds and 3D models.
00:09 - 00:11They feel that we are only looking to capitalize on the surging popularity of drones...
00:11 - 00:15...in order to finance our Headquarters in Muncie.
00:16 - 00:18We MUST protect our headquarters!
00:18 - 00:20Don't worry, we have an agreement with the FAA.
00:23 - 00:25Mein Fuhrer......
00:26 - 00:28...The FAA...
00:29 - 00:32...The FAA just announced that all RC flying craft MUST be registered with them!
00:32 - 00:34They threw us under the bus!
00:50 - 00:58Everyone that flies circles, Cubs or warbirds, leave the room!
01:09 - 01:14Don't they understand? We had a deal! WE were supposed to cash in on the drones!
01:15 - 01:20They were going to flock to us in droves! We were going to make a fortune!
01:21 - 01:23Who do they think they are?
01:25 - 01:30We'll show them! We'll tell our members NOT to register!
01:30 - 01:31Fucking FOGS and circle-flyers!
01:31 - 01:32it's all their fault!
01:32 - 01:34Don't they realize this new technology is our future?
01:34 - 01:36We can't survive without the drones!
01:36 - 01:38But Fuhrer, THEY are the ones that support us..
01:38 - 01:40FUCK THEM! They complain when we raise their dues!
01:41 - 01:43But Fuhrer, if we can distance ourselves...
01:43 - 01:48Distance ourselves, my ass! We need the money!
01:48 - 01:49Don't you get it?!
01:51 - 01:58This is our chance to capitalize! I need a raise, you need a raise, we NEED the money!
01:58 - 02:02The FAA said they were going to leave us alone, give us CBO status...
02:02 - 02:08...this would've given us the power, the control we needed to capitalize...
02:08 - 02:11...on this new, drone technology.
02:11 - 02:16Now the FAA has it! They stole it from us!
02:21 - 02:23We've been betrayed!
02:24 - 02:31What do we do now? We must regroup, figure out a way....
02:33 - 02:37...to make the members feel like we still care about them.
02:37 - 02:40Make them believe we had their backs all along.
02:40 - 02:43We must backpedal, embrace the FOGS that are still gluing sticks together...
02:43 - 02:45...instead of playing with cool, carbon-fiber drones.
02:45 - 02:51MORONS! Can't they see the future? Now I look like a dick!
02:51 - 02:55I hate when I look like a dick, we must sue the FAA!
02:57 - 02:59Don't worry, the members will foot the bill.
03:06 - 03:09Why did I pose in that Santa outfit with a drone?
03:10 - 03:15That was stupid. Everyone will know how I really feel.
03:16 - 03:18Idiot.....
03:23 - 03:25...I fucked up.
03:31 - 03:36But if you think I will admit it, you are mistaken.
03:36 - 03:41I will act like I did everything in my power to protect modelers.
03:44 - 03:47Register if you want.
