Re: Request for Exemption under Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 

2012 and Part 11 of the Federal Aviation Regulations from Certain Provisions of 14 C.F.R.

Dear Sir or Madam:

Pursuant to Section 333 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (the Reform

Act) and 14 C.F.R. Part 11, this petition for exemption is being filed by Ascend Media 

Productions, LLC, an operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAs”) for aerial

photography and cinematography. Ascend Media Productions, LLC is seeking exemption from 

the specific Code of Federal Regulations listed below to operate the DJI Inspire 1 multirotor 

within Class G airspace of the National Airspace System for purposes of safe, controlled aerial 

photography and cinematography to support the commercial market for filmmaking, real estate, 

site inspections, precision agriculture, and mapping.

Ascend Media Productions, LLC is seeking exemption from the requirements of 14 

C.F.R. §§ 21(h), 43.7, 43.11, 45.11, 45.27(a), 45.29, 91.7(a), 91.9(b)(2), 91.9(c), 91.103(b)(2), 

91.105, 91.109, 91.113(b), 91.119 (c), 91.121, 91.151(a), 91.203(a) and (b), 91.215, 91.403,

91.405(a), 91.407(a)(1), 409(a)(1) and (2), and 91.417(a) and (b). This specific UA has been 

previously approved for substantially similar commercial operations in Exemption Nos. 11062, 

11109, 11112, 11204, 11213, 11224, 11254, 11279, 11280, 11288, 11295, 11301, 11303, 11313, 

11314, 11318, 11323, 11327, 11336, 11342, 11359, 11377, 11384, 11385, 11394, and 14241. 

The UA covered by this petition (DJI Inspire 1) is a small battery-powered craft, weighing 

approximately 6.5 lbs., inclusive of battery and payload. Operation of the UA under the strict 

conditions proposed below will provide an equivalent level of safety, as Congress intended, 

while still allowing commercial operations. Operations using these UAs are far safer than 

conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft that weigh thousands 

of pounds, carry highly flammable fuel, and operate in close proximity to the ground, trees, 

infrastructure, and people.

The FAA has been directed by Congress to consider seven factors in deciding whether to 

approve Section 333 exemption petitions - size, weight, speed, operational capability, proximity 

to airports, proximity to populated areas, and operation within visual line of sight. In the case of 

this petition, each factor supports the exemption request. Particularly, the UA is small, and will 
2

be operated at lower speeds and lower altitudes. The UA will be able to more safely and 

efficiently conduct operations of which larger, traditional aircraft-based alternatives could 

otherwise involve risk of injury or death. The substantial increase of safety and decrease of risk 

to human life and to property from use of this UA weighs heavily in favor of granting the 

exemption. This request seeks the same objectives previously approved by other similar 

petitions, and should be considered under the expedited summary grant procedure. Public 

comment on this petition should not be necessary, as it seeks the same relief granted previously 

to exemptions of 14 C.F.R. § 11.87.

I. Publishable Summary

Ascend Media Productions, LLC (may be referred to hereafter as the “Petitioner”), an 

operator of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAs”) for aerial photography and 

cinematography, is seeking exemption from the specific Code of Federal Regulations listed 

below to operate the DJI Inspire 1 multirotor within Class G airspace of the National Airspace 

System for purposes of safe, controlled aerial photography and cinematography to support the 

commercial market for filmmaking, real estate, site inspections, precision agriculture, and 

mapping operations.

Petitioner seeks an exemption from the following regulations:

14 C.F.R 21(h); 14 C.F.R. 43.7; 14 C.F.R. 43.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.11; 14 C.F.R. 45.27(a); 14

C.F.R. 45.29; 14 C.F.R. 91.7(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(b)(2); 14 C.F.R. 91.9(c); 14 C.F.R. 91.103(b)(2); 

14 C.F.R. 91.105; 14 C.F.R. 91.109; 14 C.F.R. 91.113(b); 14 C.F.R. 91.119 (c); 14 C.F.R. 

91.121; 14 C.F.R. 91.151(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.203(a) and (b); 14 C.F.R. 91.215; 14 C.F.R. 91.403; 

14 C.F.R. 91.405(a); 14 C.F.R. 91.407(a)(1); 14 C.F.R. 409(a)(1) and (2); and 14 C.F.R. 

91.417(a) and (b) to operate commercially small unmanned aircraft systems (UAs) (6.5 lbs. or 

less).

Approval of the exemption requested by petitioner will allow safe, controlled commercial 

operation of the DJI Inspire 1 for the purpose of aerial cinematography and photography in Class 

G airspace nationwide, unless otherwise prescribed by an ATO-issued COA. The requested

exemption should be granted because operation of a small UA weighing approximately

6.5 lbs. (2.9 kg.), inclusive of battery and payload, conducted in the strict conditions

outlined below, will provide an equivalent level of safety, while still allowing

commercial operations. The lightweight aircraft covered by the exemption are far safer

than conventional operations conducted with helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft

weighing thousands of pounds and carrying highly flammable fuel, and operating in

close proximity to the ground and people. The seven factors Congress directed the FAA

to consider when approving Section 333 exemption petitions - size, weight, speed,

operational capability, proximity to airports, proximity to populated areas, and

operation within visual line of sight – each support the request. In particular, the aircraft

are small, and will operate at low speeds, and lower altitudes. The substantial

increase of safety and decrease of risk to human life, coupled with the low risk use of

UAs to conduct these operations, weigh heavily in favor of granting the exemption. Also of 

public interest are the additional cost savings associated with the use of UAs, which enables 

wider integration of these safer alternatives to the aforementioned commercial aerial services. 

Lastly, the domestic economy of the United States benefits from the safe and controlled 

expansion of civilian operators like Ascend Media Productions, LLC into the UA market, which 

by many accounts is estimated to reach $2 billion over the next several years.

III. Proposed Operations

A. The UAs

The requested exemption will permit petitioner to operate the DJI Inspire 1. The Inspire 1

has been previously approved for similar commercial operation in Exemption Nos. 11062, 

11109, 11112, 11204, 11213, 11224, 11254, 11279, 11280, 11288, 11295, 11301, 11303, 11313, 

11314, 11318, 11323, 11327, 11336, 11342, 11359, 11377, 11384, 11385, 11394, and 14241.

The DJI Inspire are multi-rotor sUAS aircraft comprised of a VTOL UA and a 

transportable GCS. The DJI Inspire do not carry any flammable propellant or fuel. The sUAS 

also has an integrated GPS system, barometer, ultrasonic sensors, and a ground facing camera

that calculate the UA's position and height and relays that information via live telemetry on a 

secure connection to the operator. Additionally, the DJI Inspire, have the capability to operate 

safely after experiencing certain inflight contingencies or failures and uses an auto-pilot system 

to maintain UA stability and control. The UA is also able to respond to a loss of GPS or a lostlink event with precoordinated automated flight maneuvers. All operational manuals for the DJI 

Inspire 1 have been previously submitted on similar petitions and reviewed by the FAA, but have 

been hyperlinked above in the Exhibit List within this document for convenience.

The Inspire 1 has the following specifications or equivalent:

Airframe: DJI Inspire 1

Control system: internal to the Inspire 1. This includes the main controller (MC), which receives

the battery voltage, capacity, and current, the internal measurement unit (IMU), which receives

telemetry data, compass, and GPS.

Maximum speed: 43 knots

Weight, inclusive of battery and technical payload: 6.5 lbs. (2.9 kg.)

Transmitter (Tx): DJI Inspire Remote Control

Receiver (Rx): internal to the control system

Motors: DJI 3510

Propellers: 13” x 4

Combined data and video link: HD Lightbridge

Gimbal: Zenmuse X3

Batteries: Lithium Polymer 6S High voltage battery with 4500-5700 mAh capacity

Telemetry display: DJI GO App

Automatic return to home procedure: If Tx signal is lost for more than three seconds and the UA

is under 65 ft. (20 m.) AGL, the UA will rise to 65 ft. AGL, travel horizontally to the 

predesignated home spot, hover for 15 seconds, then land. If the UA is above 65 ft. AGL, travel

horizontally to the pre-designated home spot, hover for 15 seconds, then land.
7

B. The Crew

The crew will consist of a pilot in command (PIC) and a visual observer (VO). The PIC

and VO will have been trained in operation of UAs generally and received up-to-date 

information on the UA to be operated pursuant to this grant. The PIC will receive Inspirespecific training to ensure proficiency on the platform.

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to the training and

characteristics of the crew are numbers 3 and 6-9 in Section V below. Each has been adopted or

imposed by the FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption petitions.

C. Flight Conditions

The UA will be used for aerial cinematography in Class G airspace (unless otherwise

prescribed by an ATO-issued COA) under 200 feet above ground level (“AGL”) and under

controlled conditions over restricted property. Petitioner will work with the local FSDO when

planning operations. Petitioner will only operate its UA in visual meteorological conditions

(VMC). The UA will at all times be no less than 500 feet below and no less than 2,000 

feethorizontally from a cloud, and petitioner will not conduct operations unless visibility is at 

least 3 statute miles from the PIC. The flight crew will always make a safety assessment of the 

risk of every operation, and will only operate when it is determined that no hazards are present.

Additionally, petitioner will follow DJI’s guidelines for flight conditions. 

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to the flight conditions in

which the UA will be operated are numbers 2, 4, 16, and 28-29 in Section V below. Each has 

been adopted or imposed by the FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption 

petitions.

D. Flight Operations

The purpose of the UA flights for which exemption is requested will be for aerial

cinematography. Every UA flight will use at minimum a two person flight crew: a PIC and a 

VO.

Petitioner will limit flights to 200 ft. AGL, and requests the FAA to allow it to operate no

closer than 175 ft. from nonparticipating individuals when operating at or below 65 ft. AGL.

Petitioner will be able to maintain the safety of nonparticipants while decreasing the 

nonparticipant parameter, by applying the same ratio the FAA has previously determined to be 

safe.

Petitioner anticipates that every flight, even one that is planned to be at 30 ft. AGL, may

rise to 65 ft. AGL if the automatic return-to-home program is activated.

Petitioner has selected the 175 ft. “nonparticipant parameter” by looking at the FAA’s
8

“safety ratio” for previous Section 333 approvals. Under the new “blanket 200 ft. COA” 

procedure, an approved operator may operate their UA up to 200 ft. AGL while keeping 

nonparticipants 500 ft. away from operations, giving the following ratio:

Nonparticipant parameter

Maximum height AGL = Safety Ratio

500 ft.

200 ft. = 2.5

By multiplying the maximum height AGL of an operation by 2.5, petitioner will maintain

this same “safety ratio” previously approved by the FAA. For example, if an operation 

will have a maximum AGL of 100 ft., petitioner will require nonparticipants to remain at least 

250 ft. from the operational area.

For operations that will take place at or below 65 ft. AGL, application of the “safety 

ratio” would require nonparticipants to remain at least 162.5 ft. from the operational area. In an

abundance of caution, petitioner will increase this distance an additional 12.5 ft. to maintain a 

175 ft. perimeter from the operational area. Regardless of this minimum, petitioner will require a

greater perimeter should it determine one is necessary for a given operation.

Before conducting an operation, the flight crew will examine the operational area to

identify at least two potential safe emergency landing areas, should nonparticipating individuals

enter into the flight area. Additionally, petitioner will follow DJI’s guidelines for flight 

operations, including DJI’s preflight checklist. 

Petitioner will follow DJI’s maintenance guidelines. Only individuals who have 

experience and training on the Inspire 1 system will be approved to conduct inspection and 

maintenance. If it is determined that the UA requires more specific maintenance than can be

conducted in-house, petitioner will send the UA to the manufacturer or manufacturer-certified

repair center to be repaired.

The specific conditions of the proposed exemption that relate to flight operations are

Numbers 11-12, 17-25, 32-33 within in Section V below. Each has been accepted or imposed by 

the FAA in numerous previous grants of Section 333 exemption petitions.

IV. Aircraft and Equivalent Level of Safety

Petitioner proposes that the exemption apply to UAs that have the characteristics and that

operate with the limitations proposed herein. These limitations provide for a level of 

safety at least equivalent to or higher than manned aircraft operations under the current 

regulatory structure.

Section V below identifies the limitations and conditions to which petitioner agrees to be 

boundwhen conducting commercial operations under a grant of this petition. Appendix A 

contains a matrix connecting (i) the specific proposed condition with (ii) the FAR provision for 
9

which it provides equivalent level of safety and (iii) one or more recent Section 333 exemption 

grants in which the FAA recognized this equivalent level of safety.

Approval of the commercial operations outlined in this petition presents no national 

security issue. Petitioner is willing to require its PICs to undergo a background check, including 

the proposed Transportation Security Administration vetting process, to ensure that no national

security threat is present. Operation and Certification of Small Unmanned Aircraft, 80 Fed. Reg.

9543 at 9572 (proposed Feb. 23, 2015 (to be codified at 14 C.F.R. Parts 21, 43, 45, et al.).

V. Proposed Conditions of the Exemption

1. The UAs, including battery and technical payload will weigh no more than approximately 6.5

lbs. (2.9 kg.).

2. UA operations under this exemption will be limited to conducting operations for the purpose

of utility and infrastructure inspections in Class G airspace nationwide, unless otherwise

prescribed by an ATO issued COA.

3. Flights will be operated within line of sight of a PIC and VO.

4. Flights will be operated at an altitude of no more than 200 feet AGL, as indicated by the

procedures specified in the operating documents. All altitudes reported to ATC must be in feet

AGL.

5. The UA will not be flown at an indicated airspeed exceeding 43 knots.

6. Minimum flight crew for each operation will consist of the UA PIC and a VO.

7. The PIC will have completed UA-specific training provided by the manufacturer prior to

commercial operations.

8. The petitioner will not permit any PIC to operate unless the PIC meets its qualification criteria

and demonstrates the ability to safely operate the UA in a manner consistent with how the UA

will be operated under this exemption, including evasive and emergency maneuvers and

maintaining appropriate distances from persons, vessels, vehicles and structures. PIC

qualification flight hours and currency will be logged in a manner consistent with 14 CFR

§61.51(b). A record of the PIC training will be documented and made available upon request

by the Administrator. Training operations will only be conducted during dedicated training

sessions. During training, proficiency, and experience-building flights, all persons not essential

for flight operations will be considered nonparticipants, and the PIC will operate the UA with

appropriate distance from nonparticipants in accordance with 14 CFR § 91.119.

9. The VO will not perform any other duties beyond assisting the PIC with seeing and avoiding

other air traffic and other ground based obstacles/obstructions, and will not be permitted to

operate the camera or other instruments.

10. The PIC will be designated before the flight and will not be allowed to transfer his or her
10

designation for the duration of the flight. The PIC will ensure that the VO can perform the

functions prescribed in these conditions and the operating documents.

11. A briefing will be conducted in regard to the planned UA operations prior to each day’s

activities. It will be mandatory that all personnel who will be performing duties in connection

with the operations be present for this briefing.

12. Prior to each flight, the PIC will inspect the UA, including the Ground Control Station, to

ensure it is in a condition for safe flight. If the inspection reveals a condition that affects the

safe operation of the UA, the PIC will not operate the UA until the necessary maintenance has

been performed and the UA is found to be in a condition for safe flight. All maintenance and

alterations will be properly documented in the aircraft records.

13. Petitioner will conduct a functional flight test on any UA that has undergone maintenance or

alterations that affect the UA operation or flight characteristics, e.g. replacement of a flight

critical component. The PIC who conducts the functional test flight will make an entry in the

aircraft records.

14. The petitioner will carry out its maintenance, inspections, and record keeping requirements, 

in accordance with the UA manufacturer’s aircraft/component, maintenance, overhaul,

replacement, inspection, and life limit requirements set forth in the operating documents.

Maintenance, inspection, alterations, and status of replacement/overhaul component parts will

be noted in the aircraft records, including total time in service, description of work

accomplished, and the signature of the authorized person returning the UA to service. The

authorized person will make an entry in the aircraft record of the corrective action taken against

discrepancies discovered between inspections.

15. The UA will be operated within visual line of sight (VLOS) of the PIC and VO at all times.

This requires the PIC to be able to use human vision unaided by any device other than

corrective lenses. PIC and VO will at all times be able to communicate verbally. They will not

be permitted to use electronic messaging or texting to communicate during flight operations.

16. The PIC will not begin a flight unless (considering wind and forecast weather conditions) 

there is enough power to fly at normal cruising speed to the intended landing point and prepare 

to land with at least 25% battery power remaining.

17. Actual total flight time for each operational flight will result in no less than a 25% battery

reserve.

18. The UA will have the capability to abort a flight in case of unexpected obstacles or

emergencies.

19. The UA will be programmed so that if it loses communications or loses its GPS signal, it will

return to a pre-determined location within the planned operating area and land or be recovered

in accordance with the operating documents.
11

20. If the UA and its radio control link disconnect during flight, the system’s failsafe protection

will be triggered and the multirotor will return to home and land automatically, rather than

flying off uncontrollably or landing at an unknown location.

21. The operating documents required under 14 CFR §§ 91.9 and 91.203 will be maintained and

available to the PIC at the Ground Control Station of the UA any time the UA is operating.

These documents will be made available to the Administrator or any law enforcement official

upon request. If a discrepancy exists between the conditions and limitations in the exemption

grant and the procedures outlined in the operating documents, the grant conditions and

limitations will take precedence and will be followed. Otherwise, the petitioner will follow the

procedures outlined in its operating documents. If it updates or revises its operating documents,

it will present updated and revised documents to the Administrator upon request. If the

petitioner determines that any update or revision would affect the basis upon which the FAA

granted the exemption, then the Petitioner will petition for an amendment to the grant of

exemption.

22. Petitioner will obtain written and/or oral permission from the landowners/authorized agents 

of the landowners over which flights will be conducted.

23. Petitioner will obtain all required permissions and permits from territorial, state, county or 

city jurisdictions, including local law enforcement, fire, or other appropriate governmental

agencies.

24. UA operations will not be conducted during night, as defined in 14 CFR § 1.1. All operations

will be conducted under visual meteorological conditions (VMC). Flights will not be

conducted under special visual flight rules (SVFR).

25. The petitioner will obtain an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) issued Certificate of Waiver or

Authorization (COA) prior to conducting any operations under the grant of exemption.

Petitioner will request a Notice to Airman (NOTAM) not more than 72 hours in advance, but

not less than 24 hours prior to the operation. All operations will be conducted in accordance

with airspace requirements in the ATO issued COA, including class of airspace, and altitude

level.

26. The UA will not be operated within 5 nautical miles of tower-controlled airport reference 

point as denoted on a current FAA-published aeronautical chart unless a letter of agreement with

that airport’s management has been obtained, and the operation is conducted in accordance

with a NOTAM as required by the operator’s COA. Any letter of agreement with the airport

management will be made available to the Administrator upon request.

27. The UA will not be operated less than 500 feet below, or less than 2,000 feet horizontally 

from, a cloud or when visibility is less than 3 statute miles from the PIC.

28. All operations shall be conducted in Class G airspace or as otherwise prescribed in an ATO

issued COA.
12

29. All aircraft operated in accordance with this exemption will be identified by serial number,

registered in accordance with 14 CFR part 47, and have identification (N-Number) markings

in accordance with 14 CFR part 45, Subpart C. Markings will be as large as practicable.

30. Before conducting operations, petitioner will ensure that the radio frequency spectrum used

for operation and control of the UA complies with the Federal Communications Commission

(FCC) or other appropriate government oversight agency requirements.

31. The UA will remain clear and yield the right of way to all manned aviation operations and

activities at all times.

32. Petitioner will conduct all flight operations at least 175 feet from all nonparticipating 

persons, vessels, vehicles, and structures unless one of the following three conditions is met:

a. Barriers or structures are present that sufficiently protect nonparticipating persons from the

UA and/or debris in the event of an accident. The petitioner will ensure that

nonparticipating persons remain under such protection. If a situation arises where

nonparticipating persons leave such protection and are within 175 feet of the UA, the PIC

will ensure that flight operations cease immediately.

b. The aircraft is operated near vessels, vehicles or structures where the owner/controller of

such vessels, vehicles or structures has granted permission and the PIC has made a safety

assessment of the risk of operating closer to those objects and determined that it does not

present an undue hazard.

c. Operations nearer to the PIC, VO, operator trainees or essential persons do not present an

undue hazard to those persons per § 91.119(a).

33. Petitioner will report any incident, accident, or flight operation that transgresses the lateral or

vertical boundaries of the operational area as defined by the applicable COA to the FAA's UAS

Integration Office (AFS-80) within 24 hours. Petitioner will report accidents to the National

Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) per instructions contained on the NTSB Web site:

www.ntsb.gov.

VI. Privacy

There is little concern that the proposed flights will cause invasions of privacy. All flights

will occur over either (a) public rights of way where there is no expectation of privacy; or (b) 

over private property with permission of the landowner/authorized agent and consent of 

participating individuals.

If data collected is made available for public view, all images containing uninvolved

persons will be blurred or blacked-out. No attempt will be made to identify any individuals 

filmed during the flights except in cases where they are trespassing upon or damaging customer 

property, or interfering with the petitioner’s or its customers’ operations.
13

VII. Public Interest and Safety

The planned UA use will increase ground safety for aerial cinematography operations. 

This type of data collection has previously been done by manned aircraft or by individuals on the

ground. Both are more time consuming and are more expensive than using a UA. Use of manned

aircraft poses enhanced risk to the pilot and onboard crew, who would be several hundred feet in

the air. Additionally, manned aircraft carry highly flammable fuel.

The enhanced safety and reduced environmental impact achieved using a UA and 

carrying no passengers or crew, rather than a manned aircraft of significantly greater proportions, 

carrying crew in addition to flammable fuel, gives the FAA good cause to find that the UA 

operation enabled by this exemption is in the public interest.

Satisfaction of the criteria provided in Section 333 of the Reform Act of 2012 – size,

weight, speed, operating capabilities, proximity to airports and populated areas and operation

within visual line of sight and national security – provide more than adequate justification for the

grant of the requested exemption allowing commercial operation of petitioner’s UA in the utility

and infrastructure inspection industries, pursuant to Ascend Media Productions’s rules of 

operation.

The FAA has previously approved the Inspire 1 for similar commercial operations in the

following Exemptions:

11279 (aerial photography);

11288 (aerial photography);

11313 (aerial cinematography and photography);

11359 (photography);

11336 (aerial photography);

11377 (aerial videography and cinematography); and

11385 (aerial videography and cinematography).
