have you got your pilots licence to fly it

 

 

You don't need a pilots license to fly it but you need to be approved by the CAA if your flying above 400ft flying the drone over 500m horizontally away (keep it in line of site) flying around members of public.

Also if your getting paid you need permission from the CAA.

There are lots of rules & regs.

But I do have my PPL but this would not count.

To confirm i am reading this correctly, will you be able to fly this just from looking in a screen at the gopro footage?

 

 

Yes you can it displayed in an iPhone iPad etc.. Or with googles/glasses but you need to have another person with you if you use googles to watch your back.

The OP is on the cutting edge of this virgin technology. When it comes to this industry the amount of time that companies will be able to save and convert into actual working time will be extraordinary. From an estimating standpoint the number of trips to and from clients could be limited to a Drone with a GoPro attached. This video could be down loaded for the estimator and customer to review on line and than the price can be forwarded to the customer by email. If approved by the governing bodies in the UK the days of wasted trips to and from customers for bids may soon be a thing of the past!

Working smarter, not harder is more than a slogan. Its a way of life for those that choose wisely.
