Drone Distance...

[Mar Vin]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what's the furthest distance a Drone can be flown? This is of course to be used personally and in a public area....
I do know that different drowns fly different distances, just not sure if there are any regulations around it all. I've just recently started off with a 150 to 200M distance drone but I'm sure I'd be bored flying it soon.

You can fly it until it doesn't go any further. That's the furthest distance any drone can be flown.

Just get one that exceeds the distance you are not allowed near schools, that should solve the problem.

You asked a kak question. Anycase - google drone laws SA. I've flown my Phantom until i can't see it in open areas.

O yes - And there is a drone thread

The regulation says you need to keep it in sight, so pretty much that far.

Well, I personally over December, witnessed a guy using a drone for fishing, he flew it around the 600m mark over the ocean. This is in ELN though, doubt there's anyone around to do any enforcement of drone law.

You should try being nicer to yourself, you'll get better results.
