Here is my experience with going to Europe : greetings from northern Italy

After going to and returning from Italy and Portugal this May, I had no issues entering or exiting these countries through the FCO or LIS airports with my Mini2 in my backpack. Entering security for departure, I removed the drone and RC, and batteries before going through the scanners. Seems...

I have attached the table, and up through the MiniPro 4, it still is classified as CO. I have the Mini2. The fact that it has a camera means it has to be registered. There is no training requrement other than to read the users manual I had registed the drone at d-flight.it and (received a...

I registered as a UAS operator and registered my Mini2 in Italy through d-fliight.it for an upcoming trip in early May. It was a nightmare for several reasons: The web-site was flakey and would give errors just to create an account, once the account is created you have to go through all sorts of...

That's a good point. And I will take a copy of the coverage with me and hopefully if necessary, I can use that for such purposes.

Tried Skywatch.ai and declined, need to have a part 107.

I tried Skywatch.AI but declined as I don't have a Part 107, which they say is required.

As I am in California, I had checked with AAA, but they don't offer such type of insurance, even if it were outside the US.

I am going to Italy in May 2024 for about 3 weeks with a Mini 2 for recreational use. I live in the USA. I registed as a UAS pilot and the drone on d-flight. I am now looking for drone liability insurance. I've seen skywatch.ai website. Any one used this or can recommend a low cost month plan?

I am going to Europe, Italy for recreational flying with a Mini 2 and need drone insurance for 3 weeks (1 month coverage). I live in the US. Is Skywatch.AI feasible? Or anyone have purchased liabilty coverage recommendations?

I just went through the horrendous process of registering my mini 2 drone and as an operator on d-flight.it. There are about 25+ steps you have to go through, and taken me nearly 2 hrs. I orginally had difficulty just creating an account with d-flight. I tried for 2 weeks getting same error. I...

Thanks for the advice. I was going to enter a series of digits that had the same length as a SSN, but something has to be entered.. no matter what I'd, including starting again still gives the same error. Their support does not address the error and only refer me to a guide all written in Italian
