About the Author
Introduction
The widespread knowledge about drones' potential for capturing breathtaking footage contrasts sharply with the limited number of legal drone operators. Surprisingly, many are unaware of the mandatory licensing and the intricate regulations governing drone use for commercial purposes. In the United States, all airspace falls under the strict purview of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), subjecting most drones and their operations to FAA directives. In a landmark move in June 2016, the FAA finalized operational guidelines for routine commercial deployment of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) or drones, paving the way for their seamless integration into the nation's airspace.
Crafted to ensure airspace safety, the FAA's rules pertain to drones weighing less than 55 pounds engaged in non-recreational tasks, outlined in the Code of Federal Aviation under Part 107. Consequently, drone pilots commonly refer to these regulations collectively as Part 107. Notably, Part 107 rules do not extend to individuals piloting remote control aircraft, prompting a critical inquiry into the disparities between the two.
Distinguishing factors abound between remote-control planes and drones:
Design: Remote-control planes typically feature delicate structures, albeit some may include built-in cameras. In contrast, drones boast sturdier builds and advanced technology, rendering them preferable for applications beyond recreational use. Emergency services favor drones over remote-control planes due to their reliability.
Purpose: Remote-control planes serve primarily recreational purposes, while drones, owing to their robust construction and advanced tech, find multifaceted utility. This sophistication is often reflected in drones' higher prices than typical remote-control planes.
Operation: Remote-control planes rely on constant manual control, whereas drones can operate autonomously through software like Drone Deploy and Lychee, reducing the need for continuous pilot input.
Limitations: Drones generally operate with fewer restrictions than remote-controlled aircraft, offering superior potential for activities beyond leisurely flights.
The expanded capabilities of drones, exceeding those of remote-control aircraft, necessitate stringent FAA regulation. Unless solely used for recreational purposes like backyard flying, drones typically fall under FAA oversight, emphasizing the importance of adhering to regulatory frameworks.
Understanding the essence of recreational flying is pivotal—it involves flying purely for enjoyment, devoid of any commercial endeavors. Activities exceeding this definition, like using drones with cameras to capture flight footage for platforms like YouTube that host ads, fall under commercial use as per the FAA. Hence, FAA regulations apply in such cases. To be classified as a recreational pilot by the FAA, one must engage in flying as a means of relaxation or diversion, separate from their regular occupation.
Firstly, drone registration is a crucial rule. Drones weighing between 0.55 pounds and 55 pounds utilized for anything other than recreational flying necessitate FAA registration, available online for $5 per aircraft. Registration requires the pilot to be at least 13 years old and a US citizen or legal permanent resident. Once registered, the drone must visibly display its registration number. Passing the Part 107 Aeronautical Knowledge Test for UAS Operators is mandatory for commercial drone operation. Applicants must be at least 16 years old, proficient in English (reading, writing and speaking), and pass a background check.
The exam, administered at FAA-contracted Flight Centers, comprises 60 multiple-choice questions, where a passing score entails answering 42 correctly within two hours. It covers diverse topics, including drone laws, flight operations, limitations, airspace classifications, emergency procedures, and weather. Upon passing, a certificate valid for 24 months is issued, renewable through recurrent training and testing. Some states, like North Carolina, mandate additional exams even for FAA-certified pilots intending to fly commercially or for government purposes.
Insurance is another crucial consideration. While not presently mandatory for remote pilots, it doesn't absolve pilots of liability in case of injuries or property damage resulting from a flight mishap. Governmental or private entities might necessitate insurance for drone flights. For individual pilots, various insurance companies offer coverage. Besides aircraft registration and pilot certification, remote pilots must adhere to additional regulations, detailed in subsequent chapters of this manual, which are essential for acing the Part 107 exam.
