Do I need a license to fly a drone?
You don't currently need a license to fly a drone, but the legislation surrounding drone use is still being honed. It's a great idea to join a group (like Flyby Technology on Facebook) and keep up to date with all the latest information on flying your drone safely.
Where can I fly my drone?
There are Flight Restriction Zones in the UK. You'll need to follow the rules and regulations of the UK Air Navigation Order (CAP393) and ensure you are flying in a safe area. There are tools you can use to help you with this.
How do I register my drone?
If you have a drone that needs registering you can find up to date information on how to do this on our Drone Essentials page at www.flybydronetraining.co.uk
What is the Drone Code?
The Drone Code outlines your responsibilities as a drone pilot.
Can I sell images and videos taken with my drone?
If you have obtained a General Visual Line of Sight Certificate (GVC), a Permission for Commercial Operation (PfCO) or an A2 Certificate of Competency (A2CofC) then you are a professional drone pilot and can fly your drone for monetary gain within the boundaries of your particular qualification. If you don't have a qualification from the CAA then no, you cannot make a profit from your drone. Flyby offer a range of courses here.
