I wonder if I could have a small business where I sell my services for some small hourly fee to teach other RC enthusiasts how to fly RC planes. During this training I'd probably be using the RC planes myself, and it would be for a commercial purpose... I see a few RC instructor business on google that has a commercial pilot as the instructor, I wonder if that is required.

Interesting question. The AMA (model airplane hobby organization) has invited members of the model airplane community to submit comments to the FAA seeking clarification on precisely that issue. See: http://amablog.modelaircraft.org/amagov/2015/03/18/ama-responds-to-the-faas-suas-nprm/ http://amablog.modelaircraft.org/amagov/2015/03/18/ama-respo... If you are interested, you should submit one.
