Can you fly a drone around skyscrapers?
Can you fly a drone around skyscrapers? The FAA defines the airspace where drones are allowed to fly and generally, as long as they are not within 5 miles of an airport, they can be flown up to 400 feet above the ground and even up to 400 feet above a structure. So if you're not next to an airport, the FAA allows flying next to a skyscraper.
