INTRODUCTION TO UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS DRONES 101 United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

“An unmanned vehicle (air, land or sea) that can navigate autonomously, without human control or beyond the line of sight”. What is a drone? Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Unmanned Ground Vehicle Unmanned Underwater Vehicle United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

“An unmanned aerial vehicle can be multi-rotor or fixed wing” Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) “An unmanned aircraft system is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and the equipment necessary for the safe and efficient operation of that aircraft. A UAV is a component of a UAS.” Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

Recreation vs. Commercial “The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is responsible for the safe operation of all aircraft operating in the National Airspace System. The FAA has established different rules for drone operators flying for fun, and for drone operators that are operating for hire.” Recreation vs. Commercial United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers “Recreational use is flying for enjoyment and not for work, business purposes, or for compensation or hire. Recreation United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers RECREATION Fly in accordance with the Special Rule for Model Aircraft (Public Law 112-95 Section 336) Fly for hobby or recreational purposes only Follow a community-based set of safety guidelines Fly the UAS within visual line-of-sight Give way to manned aircraft Provide prior notification to the airport and air traffic control tower, if one is present, when flying within 5 miles of an airport Fly UAS that weigh no more than 55 lbs. unless certified by a community-based organization Register the aircraft (UAS over 0.55 lbs. and less than 55 lbs. can be registered online at registermyuas.faa.gov; UAS 55 lbs. or greater must be registered through the FAA's paper-based process) United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

Commercial “Commercial use is flying for work, business purposes, or for compensation or hire. Commercial United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers COMMERCIAL There are two ways to fly a UAS for work, business, or non-recreational reasons: Following the rules in a Section 333 grant of exemption Following the requirements in the Small UAS rule (Part 107) United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

COMMERCIAL: Section 333 vs Part 107 United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

COMMERCIAL: Section 333 vs Part 107 United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

How do I know where it is OK to fly and where it is not OK to fly? The FAA has developed a mobile app called B4UFLY to help recreational UAS operators know whether there are any restrictions or requirements where they want to fly. United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers FAA Registration Federal law requires that all aircraft (which includes UAS and radio/remote controlled aircraft) flown outdoors must be registered with the FAA and marked with a registration number. UAS weighing more than 0.55 pounds and less than 55 pounds may register online at https://registermyuas.faa.gov/ or by using the legacy paper based registration process. The weight limit includes everything that is on board or otherwise attached to the aircraft at the time of takeoff. United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers FAA Registration What is the difference between registering a UAS flown for fun vs. UAS flown for work or business? If you fly your UAS for hobby or recreational purposes and you use the web-based registration process to register your aircraft, you only need to register once and then apply your registration number to as many UAS as you want. Recreational registrants only need to provide their name, address, and email address. The $5 registration fee covers all recreational UAS owned by the registrant. Unmanned aircraft flown for work or business must be registered individually by the owner, and each registration costs $5. Registrants must supply their name, address, and email address, in addition to the make, model, and serial number (if available) for each UAS they want to fly. United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers FAA Registration Do I always have to have my Certificate of Aircraft Registration with me while flying my UAS? Yes. You must have the FAA registration certificate in your possession when operating an unmanned aircraft. The certificate can be available either on paper or electronically. If another person operates your UAS, they must have the UAS registration certificate in their possession. You can give them a paper copy or email a copy to them. Federal law requires UAS operators to show the certificate of registration to any Federal, State, or local law enforcement officer if asked. You can show it electronically or show the printed certificate. United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers

United States Association of Unmanned Aerial Videographers UAVUS Best Practices PRE-FLIGHT: ¥ When required, notify the appropriate FAA facility of the launch schedule and location. ¥ Survey the area of operation for hazards – trees, utility poles and other obstacles that might compromise the flight, then make a judgment as to whether to proceed. ¥ Check the weather for wind speed, cloud cover and any forecast changes that might adversely affect flight safety and performance. ¥ Examine the aircraft ⎯ looking at connections and searching for cracks and loose parts. ¥ Determine that the electronic elements are performing correctly. ¥ Determine that the barometric altimeter reflects approximately 0 feet AGL. ¥ Following takeoff, the Pilot in Charge (PIC) will hover at an altitude of approximately 10 feet to assure that the home return point is established. ¥ Exercise all controls to confirm their functionality ⎯ if one of the controls is not functioning, the mission will be terminated immediately. ¥ Operate with a Visual Observer (VO) alongside the PIC who will double-check for possible flight hazards. The VO will provide a second pair of eyes to assist the PIC in keeping the UAV within Visual Line of Sight (VLOS). The VO will also assist in any emergency maneuvers due to unanticipated events that require a quick landing. SAFETY/PRIVACY PROTOCOLS: ¥ Do not fly above dense traffic or crowds. ¥ Always give right-of-way to manned aircraft. ¥ Stay clear of FAA-controlled airspace at airports (generally a five nautical mile radius), as well as restricted and prohibited zones. ¥ Fly no higher than 400′ AGL and no further than 1000′ from the home point, recognizing that the primary responsibility is to safely keep the aircraft within VLOS. ¥ Perform a post-flight check of the UAV to determine its physical and electronic condition. ¥ Gain express permission to fly above any and all property within flight plan. ¥ Follow a preflight checklist confirming battery charge, propeller connection, motor function, etc. ¥ Calibrate compass before each flight. ¥ Never fly in high wind or threat of precipitation. ¥ Set maximum height and radius flight limits in intelligent controller if possible. ¥ Use low battery warning audible alarms from the controller to return to home, and land well before battery capacity falls below 30 percent. In addition, UAVUS members pledge to: ¥ Never operate a UAV while under the influence of any substance including alcohol, narcotics whether prescribed, un-prescribed or over-the-counter medications. ¥ Never operate a UAV to harass, herd or alter the normal behavior of wildlife.
