I’m really hard thinking about if I should quit the hobby in the long run.

Not because it’s no fun.

but:

a) it got regulated to hell (places where I can fly legally are really rare now)

b) my hardware is somewhat out of date

I’d have to switch from #frsky and analog video to something new at some point in the future. That’s like “replace ALL my gear” expensive.

By “in the long run” I don’t mean I have to stop flying right now.

My existing quadcopters work fine and I’ve got some more recievers to pair to my Taranis QX7 in some drawer. I have enough spare parts to build me another 2 or 3 drones.

But actually getting new gear? For that I’d have to decide on if I really want to upgrade everything.

i.e.: getting me another Split-style camera is pretty much not an option anymore. New/good analog cameras? Yeah, might happen or might just not. Even my old 4in1-module in my QX7 will probably not talk to many new recievers anymore.

It’s sad.
