THE requested exemption would permitDonald DBell to pursue its commercial interests in providing services to clients and for marketing purposes using a small advanced sUAS in the following areas:

1. Real Estate 2. Marketing ofReal Estate 3. Photographyofland for the sellers and buyers visual knowledge 4.

Unmanned Aircraft System

sUAS are often seen as superiorto helicopters as an aerial video gatheringplatform due to the small devices cheaper equipmentand personal cost. Couple thatwith the greater degree ofmobilityfor photographyin areas where itis virtuallyimpossible to take anyquality ofphotos to share with the client orprospectivebuyer.

Donald DBell is petitioning for an exemption to operate a DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus. This sUAS features are as follows:

3-AXIS CAMERA STABILIZATION A built-in high precision 3-axis camera stabilization system brings a whole new level of smoothness to your aerials and gives you total creative freedom in the sky. PRECISION FLIGHT AND STABLE HOVERING The integrated GPS auto-pilot system offers position holding, altitude Jock and stable hovering, giving you constant smooth flight so you can focus on getting the shots you want. GROUND STATION SUPPORT Program a flight path using your smart-phone with our I 6 waypoint Ground Station system. Tilt the camera up and down, take photos and shoot video all while the Phantom 2 Vision+ flies autonomously.ONSCREEN REAL-TIME FLIGHT PARAMETERS Keep track ofcurrent flight telemetry and see what your Phantom sees on your mobile device. HIGH PERFORMANCE CAMERA The Phantom 2 Vision+ carries an extremely high quality camera and a removable 4GB micro SD card. It shoots full HD video at I080p/30fps and 720p/60fps, giving you crystal clear video and the option for slow motion shots. Photos are shot at 14 megapixels. CAMERA TILT CONTROL Tilt the camera as you fly, creating unique angles and amazing shots. SUPPORTS ADOBE DNG RAW DNG RAW photo capture means all original image information is retained for powerful post processing. ADOBE LENS PROFILE SUPPORT An Adobe lens profile for barrel distortion removal is available for the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ camera. CAMERA PARAMETER SETTINGS Camera settings including Picture Quality, ISO, Exposure Compensation, White Balance, and capture Format can be adjusted through the VISION app. ALBUM SYNCHRONIZATION Beam photos and videos from the Vision+ straight to your phone using Wi-Fi. No computer required. 

### The flight radar displays the current position ofthe Phanton1 2 Vision+ in relation to the pilot. Exceeding the control range ofthe remote control will trigger 'Return-to-Home', meaning the Phantom 2 Vision+ will aut01natically fly back to its takeoffpoint and land safely.

The DJI product also offers a failsafe in that ifthe unit looses contact with the ground station the DJI Phantom Vision 2 Plus will autotnatically return to home base launce site. This is also a feature in the event that the batter reaches end ofcharge. ( 25 minute normal flight time on one charge)

## DJI VISION App System Requirement OfMobile Device iOS version 

### 6.1 or above/ Android system version 4.0 or above Mobile Device Support

• iOS recommended: iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus,

• iPod touch 5 (available but not recommended: iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad mini)

• Android recommended: Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, Note 3 or phones of similar configuration

These specifications meetwith the Model Aircraft Operation Standards as setbelow:

1. The petitionerwill only operate its sUAS in the line-of-sight ofa pilot and

### for observerand will operate at sites thatare" sufficient distance" for populated

areas within sterilearea described in the FOPM. Such operations will ensure the sUAS will not "create a hazard to users ofthe national aerospace systems

orthe public." 2. When flying the sUAS within (3) miles ofan airport, airport operatorswill be notified and the operatorwill give the right-of-wayto avoid flying in the proximityoffull-scale aircraft. Maximum flight time for each operationwill be 30 minutes. 3. Flights will be terminated when the batterreaches 25%, allowing sufficient

reserve flight time to saftlyland the sUAS. 4. The sUAS will be programmed so itwill notoperate atan altitude that exceeds 400 feetAGL and not more than 200 feet above an elevated platform from which videographer is planned. 5. Minimum crewfor each operation shall consist of: sUAS pilot, (Pilotin charge or PIC) a visual sUAS observer (Visual Observer orVO) and the camera operator. 6. The sUAS operated bythe petitionerweighs less than 25 Lbs including all payload ( camera, lens, and stabilized gimbal ) 7. The sUAs will operate at speeds ofno greaterthat 1Smjs, can hover and can simultaneouslymove vertically and horizontally. 8. Because ofthe size ofthe sUAS and the restricted sterile environmentwithin which itoperates, Donald DBell operations adhere to the ReformAct's safety requirement. 9. The PIC will have logged atleast 20hrs before authorization to fly 10.All flights will be placed in an active log. 11.All flights will occur under Visual Flight rules Meteorological Conditions ( VMG) only. 12.The PIC and VO will have been trained in operation ofsUAS and received upto-date information for the particular sUAS operated.In addition to those items stated it is my sincere opinion that by grantingthis exemption would allow both buyer and sellers to get a clear and concise view of property they own or will own without the sometimes hazardous walking about unknown terrain. In the mountains ofwestern North Carolina we regularly encounter treacherous terrain as well as wildlife that may harm or be harmed by traditional walking of land. For example: black bear sow and cubs in the spring, rattle snake and copper head snake, to mention a few.

When videoing or photographing atract, as stated in the bullet point, we will have enough
coverage from the PIC orthe VO to protect the general public and generally speaking we will be flying tracts that are larger than 10 acres. That limits the general public interaction.

I also believe that by granting my request it will allow a great deal offlexibility in my practice in the land brokerage business to have a smaller footprint on the land as well as a small environmental impact.The applicant Donald DBell, believes this exemption request and associated safety considerations adequatelysatisfy criteria provided in Section 333 ofthe ReformAct of2012, providing sufficientjustification for the grantingofcommercial operations ofthe applicant's sUAS.

The applicant, Donald DBell, requestyour respective approval underthis Section 333 exemption petition request.

Thankyou for your interestand consideration in this matter. Please notify Donald D Bell ofyour actions, and orapprovals.
