No worries mate and thanks, just updated the post with your video! Ecuador Drone Rules 2020

South America overall is really friendly when it comes to flying a drone. There are a few countries that ask for a registration step or an import tax/deposit but its pretty fair and clear for most of them. After looking at the world's rules, it turns out to actually be the friendliest country to...

As far as it the process doesn't change it seems like yes. I recently completed my research with more info as Airmap added some aerial zones on its map.. but you should be pretty sweet outside cities and away from people. When it comes to the drone registration it is best described in 4 easy...

I wish this was always the case... If you go to Budapest airport your Mavic won't make the cut regardless Mavic or not for e.g. and will be forced to go in a suitcase (batteries aside as always). I visited a lot of airports now (need to grow a forest to compensate carbon print here) and can...

Yup.. this guy ?

It depends 100% on which airline you will take... Generally speaking, most airlines will follow the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) guidance & rules. When it comes to drones, your main component to worry about is the battery(ies) it uses to fly as these will be under the eye of...

Hi mate... made a little research as preparing a trip myself and @Dapper is right there isn't much out there other than flying with consideration of others and restricted zones. There is however a formal note from the police mentioning to ask for permission and they technically have the right to...

Made a little research to prepare my own trip and turns out the North of the island is quite a crowded space. Guam follows the same rules as the US indeed but you will need to apply locally if you wish to fly over national parks. Here's a snapshot from Airmap. I've detailed my findings here...

Hi Isaac, great to read you're a local from Singapore! Just updated members count on Dronemade and there are now 25 pilots from your country. You can reach out via Dronemade Forum if keen to meet other locals: Dronemade | Forum Take care and feel free to share some of your experiences and...

Hey, so I just spent half a day speaking with a local pilot and he gave me so much more context on local rules of Kosovo. All the above is correct: - if your drone weights less than 500g , then you're fine as long as you're 2 km away from military and airports - you need to obtain a permit for...

Croatia is quite tricky with drones but there are a few things to know: Before anything, it will differentiate your drone based on its weight: below 250 g (considered as a toy). between 250 g & 900 g (B1) below 5 kg (B2) between 5 & 25 kg (C1) between 25 & 150 kg (C2) It also has several...

Make the most out of it!

Greece is quite tolerant with drones but there are a few things to know: Before anything, it will differentiate your drone based on its weight: CAT0 = for drones weighting less than 1 kg CAT1 = for drones weighting between 1 & 4 kg CAT2 = for drones weighting between 4 & 25 kg But also will...

@Thomas & @nisangha Langkawi island is in a restricted zone, plus if you are doing this for a wedding it might be subject to commercial rules meaning you would need a pro license as you would take a local's job. @nisangha - Pangkor is in an airport zone so there is no legal flying there unless...

Hi Nisangha, with everyone's help and a lot of research I sumed up all local rules and must do for flying a drone in Malaysia here: Post | Dronemade | Travel with your drone. Feel free to ask directly if anything is missing, hope this helps!
