How much are they to be permitted in the airspace over a private residence or business?

How much clearance do they need to give traffic helicopters, emergency helicopters, and other HUMAN carrying air traffic?

Do they ever notify the FAA of their flight plans?

I suspect that these devices will be used in ways we have not dreamed of. They will permit small objects to be deposited or retrieved anywhere there is access by air, and they can take videos in previously private and previously inaccessible locations.

As for violating FAA rules, how are you going to catch the remote-control operator sitting in his van looking at a computer display?

I wonder if the little helicopters can be made to fly silently.
