Thanks for the guide. Ive been wanting to travel around the world and bring my drone with me so I can take some awesome photographs. Different countries do have their own rules when it comes to flying drones. If youre wanting to get into the drone hobby, you should check out this website for cheap drones. 30-Jul-2020, 04:03 PM Here in Italy updated rules (for Italian language readers): https://www.ildronista.it/nuova-normativa-droni-2020/ but in the article it also says that Italy is going to align its rules to Europe's (updated April 2020) https://www.easa.europa.eu/document-libr...ulation-eu HTH 03-Jul-2021, 04:53 PM (This post was last modified: 31-Jul-2023, 12:48 PM by iFly4rotors.) 2021-07-03 FAA Recreational Exemption The included YouTube video is a very good summary of the FAA Recreational Exemption. If ANY of these 9 points are NOT in compliance then it is a Part 107 flight, period. There is also a good explanation of Recreational vs Non-Recreational flights. The 9 points are as follows: 1) Must be flying STRICTLY for recreational purposes. 2) Must follow Community Based Organization guidelines. 3) Must Maintain Visual Line Of Site (either pilot or spotter). 4) Do NOT Interfere with Manned Aircraft. Defines Interfere. 5) Get Authorization to Fly in the Airspace. 6) Do NOT fly higher than 400 feet. 7) Must have a TRUST certificate. ** 8) Must Register the Drone > 250 grams and < 55 lbs. ** 9) Do NOT operate the Drone in a Dangerous manner. ** Consider that 7 and 8 are verifiable items; the others are subjective. Of course, if you need to get Authorization, that is also verifiable. NOTE: Although he touches on YouTube videos, the reality might be a little more complex. 12-Jul-2021, 12:59 PM (This post was last modified: 14-Jul-2021, 02:45 PM by iFly4rotors.) Now this is interesting. For me there are a couple of interesting "take away" points. 1) The FAA did not search out these people...they were turned in by an anonymous caller. Wow, that bites. Make no mistake, the FAA WILL COME AFTER YOU. Even though they might not be trolling for you, all it takes is for someone, anyone, to turn you in and the FAA will then investigate...and THEY will determine if you are flying illegally. Our opinions, thoughts, or concepts DO NOT really matter. 2) They were not "caught in the act"...the YouTube video was considered evidence enough. So, be careful where and how you post videos. I will be changing to AirVuz for any postings since I don't believe there is any way to monetize the postings like YouTube does. 3) Unless purely for fun, the flight is not-recreational. I like the example of using the drone to view the gutter on your house which only provides a benefit to the homeowner, however, it is NOT considered to be purely recreational. Guys, it is NOT just about money. Anything, really Anything, that is not 100 percent recreational is considered to be a business activity since it furthers the interest of someone, anyone, or any entity, whether you get paid or not. Too many pilots believe that money has to be involved; it DOES NOT. There is also an incorrect conception the the flight has to benefit a formal business; it DOES NOT. A business activity is literally any flight that is not purely recreational. Yeah, I don't like it either, but it is REAL. {YouTube Posting Feb. 28, 2021} 29-May-2023, 01:58 PM Although Tim's focus is Model Aircraft, he does a pretty good job of explaining the legal aspects of where we are with the FAA and a bit about local authorities. He also explains the difference between National Parks and National Forests which, by the way, are NOT the same thing. In my opinion, it is a pretty good video and worth a watch. You're Flying Illegally!! - YouTube 29-May-2023, 02:16 PM If someone reported me I would seriously hunt them down using any resources I could muster. Then dox them on 4chan, Usenet, Reddit, FB and Twitter. I would in short, return the favour with interest. Try Not, Do or Do Not - Yoda 29-May-2023, 04:13 PM While I understand where you are coming from I would not have posted that on the net. These words live forever and can be used against you later. You should delete your post to keep bad things from happening later. 25-Sep-2023, 11:27 AM Well, Sept. 16, 2023 has come and gone. Here, in the USA, Remote ID is now in effect. Oh yeah, with Discretionary Enforcement through March 16, 2024. Interesting, the effective date stands. It is just selective enforcement that has been moved back (ok, that might mean no enforcement, but it might not, whatever.). My assessment is that all of the Rants against Remote ID have only served to make more people aware of Remote ID, but certainly did NOT get it stopped, cancelled, or even the effective date "pushed back". For me, it has spurred much additional research into both the FAA regulations and Remote ID specifically. I now fully believe that Remote ID is not the "devil" that some folks think that it is. I truly do not think that pilots are going to be assaulted nor have their gear stolen. Even beyond the regulations, it is simply not very good practice to fly FPV alone in any questionable location. Period. Obviously, having a spotter (required) or at least someone with you just makes good common sense. In the USA, a pilot might also be carrying "additional" protection. Plus, if the flight is legally kept within the pilot's visual line of sight, anyone who can see the drone can likely easily find the pilot. Regardless of how each of us feels, Remote ID is in effect in the USA and now each of us just determines where we fit into the grander scheme of things. From a legal perspective, any UAS (drone) flown in FAA regulated airspace (which is basically all of it) is required to have an operational Remote ID if the All Up Weight is over 250 grams unless the craft is flown in a FRIA. Whether or not we think that it is right, it is now certainly Real. |
