What's it like to fly a drone

Check out this article on flip board on a day in the life of a military RPA operator. She Kills People From 7,850 Miles Away http://flip.it/s0lD5

J is for #jello in the #drone abc - not the type you eat but the type you get when your camera spazzes during high vibrations. <3 The Drone Bunny at Wild Rabbit Aerial

F stands for FPV or First Person View in the #drone abc. Remember that it is not legal to operate drones commercially using FPV... you must fly your craft line of sight. 

A friendly reminder from us at Wild Rabbit Aerial Productions in Los Angeles!

You may only operate line of sight of the pilot if flying your #drone commercially in US airspace. No substitutes or vision enhancements allowed. 🚁 🐰

Freezing drones midair

The UK military has developed a new device to "freeze" uavs from entering restricted airspace. Read about it below http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-34475158

E is for #exposure in the #drone #abc! Flying drones for film and TV means we need to know about cameras and production. 

[dronebunny]

@wildrabbitaerial brings today's #drone #psa to you, reminding you that flying #fpv commercially is illegal in the US. The operator, and only the operator without substitutions must maintain line of sight to the craft when in operation. 👀🚁☁️☁️☁️

Commercial Drone Flight Legalities

Remember that the FAA, the law and regulations are here for a reason. Don't get served a 1.9 million suit for illegal drone operations. Be smart and don't fly without knowing the facts! http://www.suasnews.com/2015/10/38940/faa-proposes-1-9-million-civil-penalty-against-skypan-international-for-allegedly-unauthorized-unmanned-aircraft-operations/

C is for Controller in the #drone abc :) - hope you’re having a fantastic Tuesday, we sure are in sunny Los Angeles! With love from the Drone Bunny at Wild Rabbit Aerial Productions.

Tuesday's friendly #drone #psa from @wildrabbitaerial says: don't pester wildlife when operating - whether commercially or for hobby reasons. Animals aren't a fan of your noisy crafts and will defend themselves if threatened. Don't go hurting an oblivious animal that might also destroy your vehicle! 🐰🙉🙈🙊🐑

B is for battery in the drone abc!

[dronebunny]

Current regulations say you may under no circumstance operate a drone from moving vehicles - cars, trucks, motorcycles... Not sure about horses... But the regulations on boats will change soon!

The drone bunny has also been busy creating kid friendly drone education ABCs. A is for aerial!
