New Drone Regulations

Drones are generally regarded as toys or hobbyist aircraft. However, the FAA legally considers them aircraft, plus they already have to remain registered online. Here i will discuss the basic guidelines for registering recreational drones:

• Drones that weigh between 0.55 pounds and 55 pounds needs to be registered online.
• Once registered, the drone’s operator will receive a number plate that needs to be put on all applicable drones.
• The registration is valid for three years. Neglecting to register a drone could lead to regulatory and criminal penalties.

Since the FAA considers drones for being the same as manned aircraft, any try to damage or destroy one can possibly bring about federal penalties. Even incidental damage could expose you and your family to severe expenses for virtually any resulting damage.
