Welcome to RC Drone Forum

Here's a good read on this: http://www.droneguru.net/license-to-fly-a-drone/ Flying a Drone Recreationally The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has provided clear guidelines regarding pilot license requirements for flying drones recreationally. If you fly your drone indoors, you don’t need a remote pilot’s license and you may not even need to register your drone with the FAA. If you fly your drone outdoors for recreational purposes then you will need to register the device if it weighs more than 0.55 pounds. At this point you have two options for flying your drone recreationally. According to the FAA, you do NOT need to obtain a remote pilot license under the following conditions: You are flying the drone purely as a hobby and for solely recreational reasons. You follow the guidelines set forth by your local community. You keep your drone within a visual line-of-sight. Yield to any and all manned aircraft. Remain at least five miles away from airports and air traffic control towers. Your drone must not weigh more than 55 pounds. You can also fly your drone for recreational purposes if you or someone monitoring you has a valid remote pilot license. The restrictions for such recreational flights are as follows, according to the FAA website: You must register your aircraft as a non-model, unmanned aerial vehicle. You must adhere to the FAA’s Small UAS Rule, Part 107. It is an absolute requirement that if you operate your drone under this second set of rules that either you or someone supervising you has a valid remote pilot’s license. Long story short, if you plan to fly your drone in a field, park, or other area where there manned aircraft aren’t constantly passing through and there is no immediate threat to power lines or people then you do not need a remote pilot’s license, although you will likely need to register your drone and ensure that you are only using the device as a hobby.

A friend of mine just picked up a GoPro - Karma Quadcopter with HERO6 from Bestbuy for $850. It looks pretty impressive out of the box. Charging it fully took about an hour but he couldn't fly it because it needed to update over wifi. Looking forward to see how this thing flies and captures video. It's available on on Amazon for $849 but without the battery it looks like. So the bestbuy deal is pretty good.

The last decade has seen a boom in recreational drone usage, as hundreds of thousands of law-abiding hobby pilots have taken to the skies with enthusiasm. Meanwhile, enterprising individuals are continually dreaming up new commercial uses for drone technology. Unmanned craft have already been used for aerial photography, helping realtors sell homes, and helping property owners identify roof damage. Amazon has developed drones capable of delivering its packages. One California-based company, Zipline, is using drones to transport life-saving medical supplies in Rwanda. And the innovation is just beginning. Americans need an alternative to the mainstream media. But this can't be done alone. Find out more >> Drones may one day be used for infrastructure inspection, to transport life-saving devices to people across the country, or even to help local police track down fugitives. These services will undoubtedly deliver countless benefits to society, but increased drone usage will also bring with it new and complex challenges. How should drones be integrated into the national airspace system while preserving the integrity and safety of manned aviation? How should conflicts between drone operators and landowners be addressed? Should responsibility for setting the rules of the road in the low-altitude airspace rest chiefly with the Federal Aviation Administration, or with state and local governments? This issue calls for sweeping legislation to lay the groundwork for the changes that are coming. That legislation has now arrived. The Drone Federalism Act Earlier this week, Sens. Mike Lee, R-Utah; Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.; Tom Cotton, R-Ark.; and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., introduced the Drone Federalism Act. This bipartisan bill lays out a bold new framework for federal regulation of the burgeoning drone industry. The bill takes a novel approach, recognizing and balancing the interests of federal officials in maintaining airspace safety with the responsibility of local and state governments in policing conduct within and among their communities, and with private property owners who may not be keen on drones routinely buzzing their backyards. To this end, the Drone Federalism Act affirms the federal interest in FAA regulation of the national airspace and interstate commerce, manned aviation, and all drone activity in the airspace above federal property. Outside of these restrictions, the bill vests in state, local, and tribal governments the power to “issue reasonable restrictions on the time, manner, and place of operation” of drones when flown “below 200 feet above ground level or within 200 feet of a structure.” These could include speed limits, the establishment of acceptable hours of operation, and demarcating drone-free zones around “schools, parks, roadways, bridges, or other public or private property.” The bill would also guarantee federal recognition of airspace property rights. Common law once granted an absolute right to the airspace above private property, but this archaic understanding was rendered obsolete by the rise of manned aviation. Homeowners no longer own everything “up to the heavens,” as the ancient “ad coelum” doctrine provided. In United States v. Causby (1946), though, the Supreme Court held that homeowners do own “at least as much of the space above the ground as they can occupy or use.” The “exclusive control of the immediate reaches” of the atmosphere above private land was recognized as essential, or “buildings could not be erected, trees could not be planted, and even fences could not be run.” In language borrowed directly from Causby, the Drone Federalism Act affirms a property interest in the “immediate reaches of the airspace above property.” If passed, property ownership would include 200 feet of airspace above private land and any structure on it, and the FAA would be prohibited from promulgating any rule authorizing “operation of a civil unmanned aircraft” within that space without the owner’s permission. These provisions would ensure that the FAA cannot simply designate a low-altitude corridor for drone commerce without first addressing the concerns of the landowners directly affected by such activity. As Cotton put it, “This bill will return power to regulate everyday drone use to the proper level, states and local communities.” Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., is an original sponsor of the Drone Federalism Act. (Photo: Bill Clark/CQ Roll Call/Newscom) This makes sense for a host of reasons. Most issues that are likely to arise in low-altitude drone operations—trespass and nuisance complaints, flights over public land, and night flying, for example—are inherently local matters, and responses to them should reflect local preferences. Town councils and local zoning boards will be better positioned than federal regulators to develop responsive and robust policies that suit the needs and preferences of their citizens. But federal officials do have unparalleled expertise in the aviation field that they can bring to the table to assist city, state, and tribal governments in developing their regulatory approaches to drones. To that end, the Drone Federalism Act mandates that the FAA establish pilot programs with 10 local, state, and tribal governments of varying size and “intended approach to regulation” in order to provide “technical assistance” and to “coordinate efforts with respect to the enforcement of regulations relating to the operation” of drones in those jurisdictions. The Drone Federalism Act also guarantees state, local, and tribal governments a seat at the table in the ongoing NASA-led effort to develop an unmanned aircraft traffic management system, a drone analog to the air traffic control system used for manned aviation. An Overbearing FAA In contrast to the federalism-based approach envisioned in the Drone Federalism Act, the FAA has for the last decade asserted that drones fall almost exclusively within the confines of its authority. Consequently, in the FAA’s view, local communities would have virtually no control over how drones interact with, and affect, their own local affairs. Imagine a small township having to petition the federal Department of Transportation every time it wanted to change a speed limit, install a speed bump, or designate a “no parking” zone. The result would be a needless slowing of basic decision-making that is inherently local. In the low-altitude airspace, total federal preemption would produce the same result for drones. Nevertheless, some advocate that federalism has no place in the regulation of drones because it may produce a “patchwork” of state and local laws that vary by jurisdiction. More efficient development and deployment of drone technology, they argue, would be facilitated by providing a single set of national rules. In reality, the reverse has been true. The FAA’s control over this field has, in fact, proven to be a hindrance to these services. Drone companies have moved their development operations overseas, where governments have been more inviting and more robust in establishing flexible rules that allow them to operate. Chinese drone manufacturers dominate global markets. A New Direction The Drone Federalism Act proposes to chart a new course, one that guarantees the safety of the national airspace system without compromising the traditional right of states and localities to police the conduct that takes place within their own communities. States will be free to compete with one another to create inviting conditions that attract drone businesses, much as states do today when they offer competitive tax rates and regulatory environments meant to lure job-creating industries. But the Drone Federalism Act will not throw open the doors to the Wild West. This process will be guided by the FAA, which will provide big-picture guidance and retain firm control of the navigable airspace. The FAA has full authority to provide for the safety of manned aviation, including promulgating rules governing drone activity below 200 feet where conflicts may emerge between drones and manned aircraft. This authority, stemming from section 40103 of Title 49, would allow federal regulators to secure airspace around airports, as well as military training routes and other federal facilities. The bill also empowers the FAA to set “regulations or standards related to civil unmanned aircraft systems,” which could include safety standards and technology mandates needed to comply with any future unmanned aircraft traffic management system. Citizens will benefit, not only as revolutionary drone technologies come to market more quickly, but from the federal guarantee of airspace property rights above their homes. Technological development and economic advancement do not require us to forfeit basic rights, or principles like federalism that help to maintain them. The federalism-based approach envisioned in the Drone Federalism Act is precisely the approach America needs, and it has won the support of the National Governors Association, the National Conference of State Legislatures, and the National Association of State Aviation Officials. Congress would be wise to consider such reforms. Source: http://dailysignal.com/2017/06/02/drones-revolutionize-world-bill-will-let-america-lead-drone-economy/
