The only thing that really strikes me as a bit problematic is "casual" commercial use in which someone like a real estate agent uses a hobbyist-type drone to do a little aerial photography. These rules seem a bit stringent for something like that although the reality may be the rules for commercial use just get ignored at these kind of margins.
- An FAA UAS operator certificate will be required for commercial use. I don't think the details of what this will entail have been worked out yet but it explicitly will not have the same level of rigor as a pilot's license.
- Requires the operator to maintain line of sight to the drone.
- Can't fly over people not involved in the flight.
- Certification isn't required for hobbyist use.
- Considering a more flexible framework for drones under 4.4 pounds.
