hello everyone my name is Nick and I am
a professional drone pilot now I get
asked all the time about very strong
laws in different states cities counties
so in this 50 part series I'm gonna go
over every drill ma in each state city
and county now make sure you hit that
subscribe button and let's get into it
Oh also this is not legal advice now
either you live in or plan on visiting
Oregon and you want to fly your drone
here is every drone law you need to
follow now there are a couple different
parts of this there's the federal laws
the state laws as in the city laws and
you must abide by all of them now if
you're flying for fun a lot not for cash
here are the federal laws you need to
follow now if you are flying
commercially skip to this time code
firstly you must register your drone
with the FAA drone zone website I'll
link it below you must fly within visual
sight you must fly below 400 feet your
drone must be under 55 pounds oh that is
a big drum you must never fly near
another aircraft if you're flying within
5 miles of an airport you must notify
the control tower and you must never fly
near emergency response efforts now for
the commercial fliers you must hold a
remote pilot's license issued by the FAA
you must also register your drone with
the FAA drone zone website your drone
must be under 55 pounds you must fly in
Class G airspace you must fly below 400
feet you must fly during the day or at
civil twilight which is 30 minutes after
sunset you must fly under 100 miles per
hour
Debbi fast you must yield the
right-of-way to all manned aircraft you
can't fly over people and you cannot fly
from a moving vehicle unless in a
lightly populated area now these things
can be waived but you must get clearance
from the FAA beforehand now that we got
the federal laws out of the way which
our country why do you always have to
follow these laws here are the state and
local laws it is illegal to wet
or fire a projectile from your drone now
there is a few exemptions setting
pre-emptive wildfires propelling safety
equipment or emergency supplies to
people lost in the wilderness or trapped
in burning buildings controlling
wildlife predators such as wolves and
coyotes and aiding arborists climbing
trees now property owners must give a
notice to drone operators if they do not
want them flying over their property
they can also take legal action for
multiple occurrences after the notice
has been given you may not record
someone who has a reasonable expectation
of privacy and lastly you must not fly
within 400 feet of any critical
infrastructure these facilities include
oil and gas refineries power plants
correctional facilities water treatment
plants telecommunication towers and rail
yards thank you for watching if you have
any questions just let me know in the
comments below and I'll see you next
time happy flying
