Check out Drone Launch Academy. I paid for their online course and passed with an 80%.

I’ve seen about 3 or 4 drones when I went to the event back then. No enforcement of any kind. Police everywhere as well. Everyone was having a good time with drones flying over them on a Jeep packed beach in wildwood.

Or get a reversible micro usb cable over on amazon. They do make those
