COURSE DESCRIPTION

Drones are THE hot topic today. But, the FAA changed ALL the rules at the end of December last year. What must you know to fly a drone safely and successfully? Which drone is right for your project? What are the rules? How do they work?

This week, Zach Bloom, formerly with drone manufacturer DJI and now a free-lance videographer, joins host Larry Jordan for this in-depth look at drones. We’ll start in the studio, then take our cameras outside and show actual drone operations. During this session, they cover:

  • Why is being paid to fly a drone different from flying a drone as a hobby?
  • How do you pick the right drone for your project?
  • How do you pick the right camera for your drone?
  • What are the differences between drones?
  • What insurance do you need?
  • What are the FAA regulations regarding flying a drone?
  • What are drones NOT allowed to do?
  • What licensing or permits do you need?
  • How do you fly a drone?

THIS will be a fun session – and, as always, there is tons of discussion in the Q&A.

AUDIENCE LEVEL

This is a beginning-level session. No drone experience is required. This session is delivered as a single QuickTime movie.
