Switzerland Drone Law/Regulations

[vinhidalgo]

I will travel to Switzerland next month for 12 days... and I'm thinking on taking my MP for a ride. Is there a problem with customs?? Drone flying regulations over there? Will fly from Costa to US and then Switzerland!

Thank you guys!!

You can fly anwhere except over gatherings of more than 24 people in which case you should maintain >100m lateral distance, and within 5km of airfields where you should obtain permission from the airfield ops or ATC.
There's a map here with the airfields in purple: Drones and aircraft models
In CTRs (blue zones) you may fly freely up to 150m above ground.

You must keep visual contact.
