**- 205**  **- 3199**  **Email. irontkc@gmail.com** Petition for Exemption under Sec 333
Sec 333 prohibits use of a UAS for commercial purposes on private property. I am a member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics and am simply petitioning for an exemption to provide a commercial service to private land owner and companies who wish to obta in and capture Aerial photos and video s said of property for the purposes including real estate listing, insurance property claims, and for use volunteering with the Fire Dept. Would be used as marking tool for businesses. I would like to be able to accept payment for these services therefore making this a commercial use of a UAS. My request benefits the public with volunteering my time with the Fire Dept. I will be providing a opportunity for small business owners, real estate agents, and others who wish to document their land or property tak e advantage of the technology that now exists in the form of UAS’s and allows them to do so using an experienced and Certified RC Pilot Command that under stands how to safely operate such technology. Being an FAA Certified UAS Pilot Number (FA3CF9CLF7) A C ertified AMA RC Pilot (1071852) and therefore understanding the importance of different uses and safety concerns regarding FAA regulated airspace, I would be a good candidate for exemption of 333 while not putting Air Safe ty in any accelerated risk. The specific UAS ( Phantom 3 Professional) whose Operating Manal is Included in my petition) I am seeking navigating with is one with many safety programs, including SAFE technology and GPS navigating. When flying for this commercial purpose I would be flying at a maximum altitude of 90 meters and flying mostly vertically for th e purposes of taking photos, decreasing the of any interference. My general knowledge of the aviation safety systems implemented by the FAA would be used to ensure that safety would not be affected by my operations. I would not be flying near disaster areas unless called to so from the Fire Dept. where I Volunteer my time. I would not fly next to a sporting events, or high traffic areas including airports, and I would pay attention to N OTAMS. Flight modes Intelligent flight modes let the aircraft follow me mode

. In just a few taps, you ca n tell it to automatically fly in the way you want, allowing you to focus on capt uring images and video.
Return to Home Bringing the Phantom 3 bac k to you is as simple as pressing a button on the remote or within the Pilot App. The system automatically remember* the point at which it too off, and retu rns and lands safely at this point when you command in to Return to Home. Vison Positioning System The Phantom 3 literally helps you fly. It processes information from every sensor and completes complex calculations in real time, giving you a worry free fight experie nce.Gather Fight Data

Full flight telemetry, including the Phantom 3’s Live altitude, speed, distance, and more, is Available to the APP Ground Station Set waypoints and assign automatic Act ions for the aircraft to follow. Access Real

-Time Footage Record and analyze the Phantom 3’s live HD Video stream. Use this real

-time visual Information make the app more powerful And useful
P

- Mode: In this mode, The Phantom Pro 3 can use GPS and the Vision Positioning system, allow it to hover In position indoors and out. When GPS is available, a Home Point will be locked So that the Phantom Pro 3 can Return to Home if Remote Contro l ler Signal is lost.
P

- GPS: GPS works best when outdoors and in a wide open area. The Phantom 3 Pro Uses GPS to hover in place when there is a strong GPS signal.
P

- OPTI: If GPS is not available, the aircraft can use the Vision Positioning system to hover accurately.
P

-ATTI: Neither GPS nor the Vison Positioning system are available. The aircraft will only us e it’s Barometer for altitude stabilization. Note that the Vison Positioning system may not Work properly when the Phantom Pro 3 is flying over water, over surfaces without a clear Pattern, or in a low

- light environment.
Return to Home When there is a strong GPS signal, the aircraft will be able to record a Home Point and return to that Home Point when requi red. The Home Point location is recorded when the GPS signal icon in the DJI GO app is either yellow or green. The aircraft will return to the Home Point automatically in the following scenarios (all require a strong GPS signal):
Smart RTH: W hen the RTH button on the Remote Controller o r in the DJI GO app is pressed. Low

- Battery RTH: A notification will appear in the DJI GO app requesting the pilot to take action when the battery level falls under a certain level. Failsafe RTH: When the Remote Controlle r’s signal is lost.**The LED Aircraft Status Indicators:**
