Are my children 13 and 15 allowed to fly my DJI mini 4 pro (I have operator ID)

[thisisjimmi]

Hi Guys,

I can see on page 4 of the Drone Code
https://register-drones.caa.co.uk/drone-code/the_drone_code.pdf
that to fly my DJI Mini 4 Pro I only need Operator ID (and not Flyer ID).

Could you help me understand if my children 13 and 15 can fly this drone with me without additinoal requirements, please?

Cheers

I found this:

Young people aged 13 to 17​

Getting a flyer ID​

Young people aged 13 to 17 must have a flyer ID.
They can take the test and get a flyer ID on their own.

Operator ID​

They cannot register for an operator ID until they’re 18. If your child owns a drone or model aircraft that requires an operator ID, this means you must get an operator ID.

It's from this site: Children and parent guidance | UK Civil Aviation Authority

Thank you.
It starts with this:
It assumes that the drone or model aircraft being used by the child requires a flyer ID and operator ID

and in a case of sub 250g it does not. As only Operator ID is required.
