Default GPS altitude vs altimeter altitude

I do hope this UAV flight has been cleared with the local aviation
authorities, or is contained within a "restricted" airspace to keep other
VFR and IFR aircraft safe.


I've got to agree with this one.

To the OP: When an RC airplane leaves your sight line, it is now a UAV, and
under another set of rules.

This is a rather hot topic, and in the news, as of late. Don't be the one
that gets used as an example. It could cost you a bunch of money, jail
time, or a lifetime of regret. (over the people that your plane killed)

Most likely, nothing bad would happen. Is that something you want to
gamble your like on? Is it worth it?
