    FAA registration for an N number

    I think you can provide a notarized affidavit in lieu of a receipt stating that it has not been registered outside the USA etc. If not you should be able to create a bill of sale for the thing. In my state actual real live airplanes that carry people don't have a title so transfer is just a bill...

    Are many of you guys planning on sticking by the Phantom 3 Pro after 4 is released?

    My P3 has a commercial N-number. Those are a pain to get. It involves notarized documents and long waits for the mail man etc. I suppose it does add to the resale value of it though? Since I don't want to go through that again I'll keep my P3 for a while.

    Flying within 5 miles of an airport

    I have only done one flight where I was close enough to use a radio. As it happened I was the only one in the sky.

    My COA is similar but keep in mind: The pilot of the UAV must comply with the com requirements. To be a pilot of the UAV in a commercial capacity the FAA says you must have a real pilots license. Without that license you cannot legally fly commercially.

    Sorry if I came off harsh. The fact that your here asking before doing is evidence enough that you're a responsible person trying to make reasonable decisions. Glad your here!

    Flying within 5 miles of an airport

    More thoughts on radios: 1. If you broadcast on the wrong frequencies you could end up dispatching search and rescue teams to your location. 2. If you broadcast in a specific way on specific channels, you could actually turn on the landing lights at some mid sized airports. 3. If you broadcast...

    Flying within 5 miles of an airport

    As I remember from flight school, to use and air band radio you need an air band license. For most people a pilots licenses is your radio license. I will see if I can find the FAR on that. I use one when I fly my drone commercially near airports because that is what my COA requires. I am also a...

    backpack recommendations

    I have the DJI one. I would recommend something else. It is well built but it fits the Drone, props, radio, batteries, all the DJI stuff and nothing else. If you want to bring paperwork, a tablet, a sunshade, or anything else, it's a pain.

    FAA REGISTRATION IS SIMPLE

    Oh man I am just imagining someone coming with badges saying "We're here to inspect the rabbits" Really though. For all the anti registration people out there. You may want to think twice. The FAA is going to find someone to make an example out of. That person could be you.
