Why are US RC hobbyists and drone owners now being treated like sex offenders?
The DOT and FAA in the USA have launched their UAS (that's "drone" to the great unwashed) registration website and program. If you own a drone, RC model plane, RC helicopter or even control-line plane that weighs more than .55lbs (250g) and less than 55lbs (20KG) then you will have to register. If you don't, a $27,000 fine could be headed your way.
Here is a link to my previous rant on the drone registration issue:
