BBC News and UAV footage
Looks like the national broadcaster is prepared to lower its standards completely and accept dodgy aerial shots from model aircraft.
This is "aerial work" isn't it"

There were plans by the Police to deploy camera drones in the Liverpool area. It was postulated they would become the targets for a new form of urban skeet shooting

If I am not mistaken, there is a wonderful irony in the OP of this thread complaining about being undercut by "inferior" aircraft, and wanting the CAA to investigate.

I don't think that using footage sent in by a viewer can be classified as aerial work!! No different to using clips off Utube!
Hughes500; 7kgs I believe and then it depends what you want to do with it.
There are also rules on how close you can fly RC aircraft to things etc but Im not an expert on these things.

Not 7kgs any more. In the UK you need a CAA permission for any aerial work done with a radio controlled model for valuable consideration.
