Drone Regulation

The FAA has partnered with several industry associations to promote Know Before You Fly, a campaign to educate the public about using unmanned aircraft safely and responsibly. Individuals flying for hobby or recreation are strongly encouraged to follow safety guidelines, which include:

• Register your drone with the FAA and label your aircraft with the provided N-number.
• Contact airports within a five mile radius of your intended flight operation to let them know of your flight activity.
• Fly below 400 feet and remain clear of surrounding obstacles.
• Keep the aircraft within visual line of sight at all times.
• Remain well clear of and do not interfere with manned aircraft operations.
• Do not overfly people or stadiums.
• Don't be careless or reckless with your unmanned aircraft. You could be fined for endangering people or other aircraft.

Commercial drone operators should consult Federal Aviation Regulation 107 for more in-depth requirements.
