My wife is going to a conference next year then spending some time in University libraries doing research. So I will have some time ( a couple of weeks) to wander about and take my time with drone photography. I plan on taking my Mavic Pro and my Spark. Along with a small mirrorless digital. It'll all fit in a camera backpack with room for spare batteries and such.
First stop is Bern Switzerland for the conference then onward to Nuremberg Germany. In reading the German requirements I have noted the insurance and have a company that provides 1 million Euros drone insurance for around 75€ which is ok I guess although it is unclear as to the scope (all of Europe?) and duration (weekly? whole trip?). The real kicker though is the German regs specify a fireproof metal permanently affixed tag with name and address on the drones. Where in the world do you find such a thing and is this really what German drone pilots have on their drones?
Any other travel gotchas appreciated. We have several months to go but we have so many things to get organized that I want to take care of this first.
