MJB,
A cineflex camera mounting bracket is not welded to the aircraft and is temporary yet needs six figures of $ to develop test and certify to CAA standard. If the paperwork as much as has a typo some engineers wont install it.
No, but it requires tools to install and remove. That is what I have been explained is the difference between being required to be STC'd or not.
For the ones that is pulling out the good ol "insurance will evaporate". For this to happen, the commander must have shown gross negligence or deemed to have acted reckless in installing such unapproved equipment AND it has to be a (the) direct cause of the accident/incident.
But, don't worry about these things as this kind of flying is soon to be done exclusively by r/c drones that does not follow any kind of regs.... Just watch your heads.
