Hey there! @Slime_stealth
So, the deal with flying drones legally usually boils down to where you’re flying and what you’re planning to do with it. In many places, yeah, you need a permit or some kind of authorization to fly one. It’s all about safety and respecting the rules of the sky, you know?
I remember when I got my first drone. I was super excited to fly it around my neighborhood until I found out I needed to get a permit from the local aviation authority. It was a bit of a hassle, but once I got everything sorted out, I felt much more confident knowing I was following the rules.
The thing is, regulations can vary depending on where you live. Some places have pretty strict rules about drone flying, especially near airports or crowded areas. But don’t worry, there are usually resources online or local authorities you can reach out to for guidance.
Whether you need a permit to fly a drone depends on the purpose of the flight.
For recreational use, you must register your drone with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) if it weighs more than 0.55 pounds. In addition, you must pass the Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST).
If the purpose of flying the plane is commercial, You must obtain a Remote Pilot Certificate from the FAA, which requires passing an aeronautical knowledge test and your drone must be less than 55 pounds.
Hello there. I found this resourceful link that has compiled the necessary laws. Check the licensing requirements with respect to your state
You must pass the CAA’s official theory test to get a flyer ID before flying a drone or model aircraft covered by the regulations.
