    Anybody located in Toronto, Ontario and the surrounding areas?

    Drone Laws in Southern Ontario (Toronto Area)

    Yeah good point, may I ask what is an example of keeping far away from the road? Do you find a parking lot or empty field? I don’t want to get hit because I’m flying my drone ?
