Question: Can you fly over my property without my permission?

Question: Aren’t you violating my privacy with your drone?

No, when flying over your property our drones does not record anything that is not already available via satellite or small plane. Example of this would be Google Earth.

Question: What if someone does not like the drone flying around and shoots your drone down?

The FAA defines small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (Drones) as “aircraft”. Our drones are registered aircraft. Shooting one down would be the equivalent of shooting down a small plane. They would be breaking several laws, federal and local laws. A disabled drone could fly away out of control causing damage or harm to other people.

Question: Are there any flight restrictions that control how high and far you can fly the drone?

Yes, following the FAA 107 regulations a drone has flight restrictions depending on the airpace it is flying in and other factors. Normally 400”above ground and the pilot in charge needs to maintain visual line of site. Under certain conditions waivers to these restrictions may be obtained through the FAA.
