Drone Laws, Registration & Part 107

Who it's for

Pilots unsure what's legal, and anyone who wants to fly commercially. Almost every rule that governs your drone was written for one of two reasons: to keep it from hitting an airplane, or to keep it from hurting someone on the ground. Once you understand the system that way, the whole thing stops feeling like bureaucracy and starts feeling like a checklist you can actually run — and the same checklist that keeps you legal is the one that lets you charge money to fly.
