There's the general 107 laws, but laws can be diffrent state to state, county to county and city to city!
Hi Mart
If you do fly in the US I'd be very interested how you got on - perhaps do a post for the UK area of the forum when you get back ( presume East Cheshire is UK East Chesh, I'm in CWAC.

Hi Mart,
For clarity are you traveling to the U.S.A specifically or other places in the Americas as well? Others answered the United States of America laws question but I wanted to add that I hope you have a AMAZING trip. Things are crazy everywhere in the world right now but I pray you return happy, healthy, and safe with a wealth of great memories and drone footage of it all!!!
Yes usa , vegas, texas or florida it will be one of those places as we have good friends there, it wont be until later this year or early next year.

I don't know what the specific laws are in any of those places so you would need to do your research -
- Might get lucky and capture aliens flying around area 51
- Hoover Dam would be amazing
- Lake Mead too!
- some amazing architecture in Vegas
- Grand Canyon just a few hours south I think -
- after the Grand Canyon, go a little further south and get some beautiful shots of the red rocks around Sedona
- Painted Desert in Arizona is not too far from the Grand Canyon
- Meteor Crater would be cool to get
- UTAH - Utah is also pretty close to Vegas - few hours away - and you can get amazing footage from a bunch of different places there .....Bryce Canyon, Canyon Lands and many more...

Meteor Crater is entirely contained within private property, and they have posted signs prohibiting drones.
Lake Mead is a nice option, though. As long as you don't take off or land within the boundaries of the Park, anyway.

Heres a question for ya'll...
If I were to come holiday in the States and bought my drone do I need a FAA permit to fly it legally....I am assuming I do...
Is there such a thing as an equivilant of an International drivers licence for drones....
I am guessing not but thought I throw it out there
