Dear DJI, I was anxiously awaiting The Spark, finally to fly free again! You need to shave off 50g before I can consider purchasing this product. I already have a P2V+ and P3P which are great! However I do most of my flying in Canada, that's right I am essentially grounded as I do most of my...

This interim order is so badly worded. When does "Night" exactly start? 30mins after sunset? One hour?

Hey there, I am surprised that we have not seen a release date for the apparently new "Mini-Maverick". As of now I really don't know what to do with my P2V+ and P3P (Canadian living under restrictive Garneauism). I have been looking at drones under 250g, do any have experience with them...

If Transport Canada can't be bothered to amend their flawed writing then that is their issue. Such a poorly worded piece of interim *COUGHS* "legislation".

So as it stands right now this DOES NOT APPLY TO DRONES. Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft - Transport Canada Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft Interpretation Definitions 1 (1) "unmanned air vehicle means a power-driven aircraft, other than a model...

Thank you very much for this information. Would you have a template / example letter? They state there is no formal application form: Staff Instruction (SI) No. 623-001 - Transport Canada What other supporting documents do you submit? I'll be looking at a blanket SFOC.

I don't want to be forced to join MAAC. I don't fancy being limited to their fields. I got into drones for two reasons: 1) Grew up with model planes and loved flying them, then along came drones. No more playing with the gas needle for that exact right fuel mixture! 2) Videography and...

I agree J5255, very condescending. How can one possibly enjoy the flow of this seeing this industry / hobby basically be obliterated.

We could submit an Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Online Request to verify this.

Actually, why don't ALL CANADIANS reading this submit a request?

Can someone remind me how this is law? Has it passed two readings in the House Of Commons?

Did you make ABSOLUTELY SURE that there were no Snow Rabbits in that field? :rolleyes::)

Let's hope there's an avid drone operator that's a judge out there that can throw out or suspend these regulations until proper consultation is convened with Transport Canada and drone operators, commercial and recreational. It would also be in DJI's best interest to lobby the government as...

So.... I do most of my flying over a lake. I am now restricted to a 15m vertical operating window. (75m-90m altitude) I cannot exceed 90m for maximum altitude and I cannot go below 75m in case of duck / swan / geese / FISH conflict incursion.
