What??? Have I really become a legit COX RC plane flyer???

I am embarrassed to admit to you CEF friends,  that I have morphed from a proud outlaw flyer into a legit RC flyer recently, when I finally submitted my registration documents to the Hungarian aviation authorities, and got registered as a UAS (=unmanned aircraft system) operator, and registered an UAS with a serial mark "Powered by COX", an insignia I designed and put as a home made decal  on all my COX powered RC planes (almost 10 or so), with no distinction. ...this trick may allow me to avoid multiple UAS registrations, which is unnecessary anyway, given that I always fly only one plane at a time (who knows, one day I may fly even 2 or more, or just simply fly one but see several, thanks to my ageing eyesight... )

Now I have all pre-requisits of a UAS flyer, like  the UAS pilot licence for A1/A3 Open sub-category operations (that I got after I had passed an exam on the internet) , a third party liability insurance ( a coverage I have because of my silent membership in the Hungarian Modelers' Association), the recently earned UAS pilot and UAS plane registrations, so the only thing that is required is a land where UAS flights are time-to-time allowed after checking in with authorities through a mobile application. (Given that I fly on the small airstrip of a friendly aerodrome that has permanent permit, I do not even bother checking in..I know that for most of you CEF friends this misery of land where to fly is unknown, you just drive a few miles and the vast American land opens up for your free pastime activities, including RC flying...I cannot say how envious   I am when seeing Kim's videos , his birds taking off in his front yard, and flying with no concern about obstacles, authorities, neighbors, dog-walkers, and the like...)

While the drone categories - and IC engine powered RC planes are also qualified as drones - are strictly describing the particulars of all drone classes from C0 to C4 or so, these are all common in that, they are electrically powered.

Then, here I come with our IC engine powered COX RC planes, which, by drone law definitions, are non-classified drones. My COX planes  do not really have to comply with C0...C4 class requirements, just make sure not to fly them over, on near people in crowds, and stay with them within  VLOS (=Visual Line of Sight), while also not exceeding 120m flight altitude..

Finally a legit pilot, I at least will have a few less butterflies in my stomach when flying the next time..
