Practically any drone that can cary a gopro could also fly to 2000ft and you're limited to 500ft by the rules anyway. The issue is the FAA has always allowed model aircraft however now the technology has advanced to the point that those aircraft have potential to be widely used in commercial applications and the FAA is trying to hold back that use. This can't be left to the FAA alone, next gen ATC has taken them 20years and it's still not implemented if we were to follow the same path with drone integration it would likely not happen for another 20. The cat is out of the bag, people have drones and they need to move quickly to get some sane regulations for commercial use instead of sending letters and fines.
