Caa article 16 drone weight

Hi I have a mini 4 pro as most people know sub 250g, i do not have the CofC (A2). But i am have a question regarding article 16. What i would like to do is put 360 degree camera on to the drone, so this would take the drone over the 250g which i would not be able to fly since i do not have the CofC, How ever if i used article 16 would this then be possible for me to fly with out having the CofC ?? Just a side not does being a member of greyarrows have article 16 included if you are a paid member? Thanks in advance,

Why not? :thinking:

In a field, yes.

Anywhere else, use Good 2 Go to find your answer:

Not yet :blush:

We’re currently considering this route and may have more news to announce in the new year.

On a Mini 4 :thinking: what does the camera weigh?

Hi thanks for your reply, i seen this amazing youtube video of edinburgh castle, and you can move the the angle of what you are seeing as the drone flys, and i thought i would like to try. The reason i said i could not fly my drone, i thought since i never had CofC i could only fly a drone less than 250g. Here is a link for the youtube video that has got me thinking

I’ll refer you back to Good 2 Go again:

Thanks the weight of the insta 360 is 26.5g then add a mount so looking at total including drone max 270g

Says “GOOD NEWS” thanks again,

thank you

Which Insta 360 is that? My x3 and One Rs both weigh around 200g which I reckon is pushing it on a Mini drone.

insta 360 one x2 (149g) The insta 360 i thought was 26.5g which it is but does not do 360

Good luck :open_mouth:

i have seen videos of the mini 2 lifting over 200g, granted battery never lasted,

I feel sorry for the motors and ESC

Never mind the top heavy displacement affecting the imu caused by a camera strapped to the top

Good luck :wink:

This is the drone used in the video

I’ve used a onex2 with an original MP a M2P and the DJIFPV with ease

Not sure the Mini range is upto it , chase YouTube there’ll be something on there
