Appealed it, let's wait outcome. UPD: Accepted. Question: if I upload another shoot with same copter at the same place same day but hoods closed and engine started (first ground test of new modification) will it be rejected as double? http://imgproc.airliners.net/photos/airliners/9/3/8/3903839-v2661...
