FAQ

 

CAN YOU OPERATE AT NIGHT?

Yes, we have a night waiver which allows operations at night. Traditionally operations are limited to daylight-only operations, or civil twilight (30 minutes before official sunrise to 30 minutes after official sunset, local time) with appropriate anti-collision lighting.

ARE VISUAL OBSERVERS REQUIRED?

May use visual observer (VO) but not required unless during night operations or in special circumstances where additional support is needed.

HOW FAR CAN YOU FLY?

Visual line-of-sight (VLOS) only; the unmanned aircraft must remain within VLOS of the remote pilot in command and the person manipulating the flight controls of the small UAS. Alternatively, the unmanned aircraft must remain within VLOS of the visual observer. At all times the small unmanned aircraft must remain close enough to the remote pilot in command and the person manipulating the flight controls of the small UAS for those people to be capable of seeing the aircraft with vision unaided by any device other than corrective lenses.

ARE EXTERNAL PAYLOADS ALLOWED?

External load operations are allowed if the object being carried by the unmanned aircraft is securely attached and does not adversely affect the flight characteristics or controllability of the aircraft.

CAN YOU FLY FROM A MOVING VEHICLE?

yes, but only operation is over a sparsely populated area.

CAN YOU FLY indoors

Yes we can, each situation is evaluated on a case by case scenario. We look at the complexity, type of shots and environmental factors of each location to make sure it can be done safely.
