Any drone without airsafe is going to be a toy/plaything after 2022?
So I suppose the next question is - which drones already have Airsafe?
The whole idea of broadcasting data and flights etc is small fry compared to what already gets broadcasted from a smart phone.
The whole Information Super Highway has been hacked since that Slimey thing called Mark Zuckerberg got his greasy little mitts into people’s brains!
Did anyone see The Great Hack? Explains how people’s minds, their ‘Forum internum’ Has been manipulated using the 5000 data points they have on every single user of Facebook and how that data can control what decisions you make - things like voting for mass suicide aka Brexit - lol…
I read that from June 2022 to retrofit such a device to your existing drones. These devices are expected to be very lightweight (less than 10gms) and relatively affordable (less than £20)
While the sections of the DR relating to Class C1, C2 and C3 unmanned aircraft already
describes requirements for these types to be fitted with a ‘direct remote identification’ system, the
IR amendment has now added a requirement from 1 January 2022 that operators must ensure
that each individual unmanned aircraft is installed with an active and up to date remote
identification system. If the unmanned aircraft is not fitted with such a system, details of the
requirements for a direct remote identification ‘add-on’ (for separate purchase) are contained in
Part 6 of the DR.
Not when it comes to drones,your right up there(excuse the pun) with the best of the best on here!
keep posting and keep flying,well when this stupid virus thing finally comes to an end!!!
Even after any air sense device is fitted we still need the DJI drones classified, and marked as so by the producer. So as it stands all DJI drones will be classed as legacy after 2022, and will only be fit to fly into the A3 category.
Maybe the MM could be the exception as now the MTOM has been removed.
I ran out of time for the edit before I could finish…
Maybe the MM could be the exception as now the MTOM has been removed. So when used without the prop guards and stickers it’s falls into A1, C0 (not a toy ) with a camera fitted. But again I’m not sure because it does require registering, thus it may need to be marked as C0 by the producer.
Unless Ive read the whole thing incorrectly, I don’t understand the fuss for “hobbyists” - the rules seem pretty much the same - keep away from people & buildings etc etc. If someone has a mind to fly commercially then it IS different and they have a couple of hoops to jump through and need further “certification” - I don’t so I’m not bothering to get concerned YET.
Do you know what it means then by “ Legacy Drone “ in the “Class” of subcategory A1 in the table below?
To me the fact it has no classification is one reason for being a legacy drone, so why mention it in A1 when it should be A3? This clearly tells me the mavic Mini will be ok when the new rules apply.
It would appear that the Mavic Mini will be able to be flown indefinitely within the A1 category, without the need to undertake the A2 CofC. The CAA have stated that the weight at time of flight applies for legacy drones.
