What drones Cannot do?


What drones Cannot do? UAS must be flown below 400 feet and remain clear of surrounding obstacles. UAS are considered to be both “motorized equipment” and “mechanical transport” and, as such, they cannot take off from, land in, or be operated from congressionally designated wilderness areas.


Can pilots see drones?

You should get authorization before flying in controlled airspace. You must fly within visual-line-of-sight, meaning that you or your visual observer can see your drone at all times.


Can airports detect drones?

For these reasons, airport radar can't detect drones to the level that we need it to in order to maintain airspace security at airports. Additionally, radar has limitations like range and depth of field, which in some cases drone technology manages to bypass.
