January 07, 2016Know How... 176: All About Drones
FAA Drone Guidelines are here, how to fly safely, practice flying exercises, and a 150 Micro FPV quad build.

FAA Drone Guidelines for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (What the FAA calls them instead of "drones")
Here are the regulations in a nutshell:
Any craft over 250g needs to be registered

You need to be at least 13 years old to register.

You will need serial numbers attached to the drone

No Registration at point of sale, but you will need to register before you buy.

Registration will happen through a website or app. NO NEED TO USE A 3RD PARTY.

The fee should be essentially FREE (The task force recommended free or $0.001)
Drone Safety
Know your aircraft.
Does it have GPS? Magnetometer? If so, know how to calibrate it, and do it EVERY TIME you fly.
Props OFF!!!
Always take your props off anytime you tune your drone
Know the Flight Rules
Yield to all manned craft

No craft over 55 lbs

Don't Fly over people, cars, crowds, stadiums, transportation paths

Don't Fly over 400 ft

Don't Fly within 5 miles of an airport

Don't fly beyond line of sight.
Figure out Inertia and Momentum
It takes time for your props to spin up and down. Get accustomed to how much time that takes, because it will determine how rapidly your craft can adjust its flight

Remember that there is lag between input and action

Don't fly anything bigger than 6" indoor
Do your drone exercises!
Hover

Ground Effect
