Drone Flights Indoors – CAA Provide Clarification on Recent Changes

By |October 19th, 2018|Categories: General News |Tags: |Comments Off on Drone Flights Indoors – CAA Provide Clarification on Recent Changes

Indoor Drone FlightsThe recent Air Navigation Law Amendment (The Air Navigation Order 2016 as amended) made several very important changes to the drone legislation, not least of which was the introduction of a single weight class for up to 20kg (rather than the previous 0 – 7kg, 7 – 20kg split).  However, there was one amendment with regard to indoor drone flight that seemed to go largely unreported.Prior to the amendment, it was stated by the CAA that the law applied equally to drone flights taking place indoors or outdoors i.e. there was no distinct difference between the [...]

Hiring a Drone Operator – Flying Distances

By |October 8th, 2018|Categories: General News |Tags: |Comments Off on Hiring a Drone Operator – Flying Distances

This is the second part in our series designed to explain some of the basic principles about hiring a drone operator and the standards they have to meet in order to fly safely and legally.  In particular, we’ll be looking at the distances that a drone pilot must keep to as this is something that you’ll often hear talked about and can be a bit confusing. Maximum Height that a Drone Can Fly So a drone may only fly up to 400 feet about the ground, that’s 120 metres.  This is to keep it under the level of most manned aircraft and to minimise the risk of conflict there (although s [...]

By |October 3rd, 2018|Categories: News Dragons Den Peter Jones |Tags: |Comments Off on Peter Jones – Planning to Bring Drone Technology to the Forefront of the UK’s Plans

Peter Jones was the Dragon of choice before DSR founder, Mark Boyt, flew into the Den. So when he left having secured investment from the man himself, it was understandably very exciting.

In fact, this has exceeded all expectations with Peter having already personally attended many meetings and even taken time to film a short promotional video espousing the benefits of the Drone Safe Register network of qualified and legal pilots. “I’m absolutely delighted with my inv [...]
