Hi guys.
This is a question that I could answer myself via google or the search bar in this forum.
However, Google can be a little misleading.
Previously, to do commercial work, you needed a pfco. Amongst the paperwork, I understood it needed a flying test like a figure 8 etc? Was that in atti mode? ie no gps or altitude hold?
Next, there is a new test to take. Soon (I understand its still in progress). So you can do commercial work? Does that involve a flying test? And paperwork?
Asking for a friend. Not really a friend, more of a distant acquaintance
I understand that with the new laws coming you can do commercial stuff with no qualifications as long as it’s in A3 category. So anyone with the minimal cert can sell do photographic stuff?
That most likely wrong though as it seems a mess of non understandable piffel. Bit like the Clown Boris Haystack
If you’re flying your pocket rockets line of sight, Karl, you shouldn’t have any trouble flying a cameraship in ATTI mode. Also all the commercially available cameraships that have ATTI as an option, as standard, also use altitude hold. When the option is available I much prefer to fly in ATTI mode as you have more control over the craft, using GPS hold for stationary shots and waypoint assisted routes.
