Unmanned Aircraft Exemption Section 333

1. The use of mid-grade level UAV’s. Products such as the DJI Phantom Vision 2+, DJI Inspire, and similar grade UAV’s. I will be conforming to all safety guidances from the company, including but not limited to respecting restricted air space (at least 5 miles away from airports). Also I will comply to the no higher than 200ft ceiling and restrict flying to the daytime.

2. Before every flight I inspect the aircraft for physical damage and ensure the rotors are in good shape. Every 50 flights the UAV’s are taken apart and fully detailed to ensure problem free operation.

3. The products I use operate on a 5.728-5.85GHz frequency. The range extender which send flight data operate on the 2.412-2462MHz frequency. It complies with the Federal

Communications Commission.

4. All PIC(s) must show proficiency in operating the UAV before full command is given. They will need to show proficiency in not only use the basic controls individually, but simultaneous operation of different motions (pitch, yaw, roll ect). That includes with the GPS equipped units, but also the ability to control without GPS assist in case of failure. I myself have spent over 10 hours flying and training operating specifically the DJI Phantom 2 Vision +. In that time not only have I mastered control of the UAV, but also the ability to record private video with it smoothly, a skill that requires much experience.

5. All PIC(s) must maintain full vision of the UAV (as required per law). If they require use of visual aid to see at distance, they must use said aids when operating.

6. Use of the UAV(s) would mainly be for private use through YouTube. In addition though, I plan to take real estate photography and film for small recreational businesses (i.e. flyboarding, sailing, boating). There would be no major safety issues as filming requires and angle of the target, so the UAV would be positioned away from the subjects. In addition, flying near people not involved is not allowed. The UAV will remain a safe falling distance away from anyone. The PIC will have to take into account single motor failure (out of the at least four equipped) which would cause a downfall not straight down. Emergency engine cut off must take place to ensure non-involved personal do not become potential targets from the failed aircraft. This would be at the expense of the UAV.

7. Maximum operating speed would be the limit of the GPS stability (around 30 mph). If GPS is not being used, no more than 20 mph should be achieved to prevent loss of control at high speeds. Maximum flying altitude will be 200ft. PIC must maintain full visual of the UAV. Clouds will not be an issue as we operate much below their altitude, flying in foggy conditions is not allowed as it could cause harm to the UAV and may cause a failure. In addition, flying while its raining is not allowed for the above reason.

8. When flying for real estate, flights will be slow moving and over non-populated areas. It will be outdoors, mainly over open lots. As for video of recreational activities, these are outdoors as well. All above limits will be followed, including operation according to the manual. It will not be flown over crowds to prevent an injury that could occur if a failure occurs.

9. Operation near an airport will not occur due to GPS related sanctions built into the UAVs being used. In addition, before flying in an unfamiliar area, the PIC will research the nearest airport to ensure they are at least 5 miles away from the nearest airport.

10. To comply with VLOS, the PIC will ensure they are able to not only be able to see the UAV, but also its orientation (according to the underbody navigation lights). This will ensure they are allows in full control and can quickly and safely return the UAV back launch point if

needed.11. Before set up, the PIC must locate a location at least 10m away from non-involved persons and any over hanging obstacles. This is done to ensure in the event the remote control breaks connection, the built-in RTB function has a safe and clear place to land. Then the flight area must be established with proper knowledge of all potential obstacles (trees, power lines, etc). All preflight maintenance must be complete and verify the UAV is safe for flight. A battery with no less than 60% should be used on take off. Also all systems on the UAV will be checked to ensure they are fully booted. GPS lock must occur before engine are started, this ensures a proper automated RTB if needed. For first launch, the PIC must run through all the controls to ensure all degrees of control are working (roll, pitch, yaw, altitude).
