Drone Safety Rules

Some people do not realise that drone safety rules vary depending on whether you are flying commercially or recreationally. Common questions are:

  • Do I need need a licence (or UAV) in Australia?
  • Is it legal to fly a drone in a residential area?
  • Is it legal to fly drones over private property
