**Exemption petition under §** **333** Name: Mark D. Zinn Address: 5001 W. 70th Street, Prairie Village, KS 66208 Phone: (913) 963
-0201 Email: mark@zinnlawfirm.com Petition for Exemption under §333 Section 333 prohibits the use of a UAS for commercial purposes on private property. Ipetition for an exemption to provide commercial service to private land owners and companies who wish to obtain a nd capture Aerial photos and videos of said property for purposes including real estate listings, insurance property claims, and for use as a marketing tool for businesses. Iwould like to be able to accept payment, either directly or indirectly, for these services, thereby making this a commercial use of a UAS. My request benefits the public as a whole by providing an opportunity for small business owners, real estate agents, and others who wish to document their land or property to take advantage of the technology that now exists in the form of UAS’s, and al lows them to do so using a third
- party who understands how to safely operate such technology. I have a thorough understanding of the importance of different uses and safety concerns regarding FAA regulated airspace, and would be a good candidate for exemption of §333 while not putting Air Safety in any accelerated risk. W hen flying for this commercial purpose, I would be flying at a maximum altitude of 200 feet and flying mostly vertically for the purposes of taking photos and videos, decreasing the risk 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 sporting events or high traffic areas including airports, and I would pay attention to NOTAMS. **For safety reasons, all flights are limited by default. And, I intend to fl** **y in the following safe mode**  **:** P- Mode: height limits, distance limits, and No- Fly Zones function concurrently to manage flight safety. Whe n in a No- Fly Zone, the motors will not start. When in a Restricted Altitude Flight Zone, the aircraft will not exceed an appropriate altitude, although I don’t intend to ever exceed 200 feet in altitude for my commercial purpose . **I intend to follow the se suggested safety regulations:**   Always keep aircraft in sight and under control  Always keep people and pets at least 35 feet (10 meters) away when the battery is connected  Keep children out of the vicinity of this product at all times  Always use fully charged batteries  Always keep transmitter powered on while aircraft is powered Always remove batteries before disassembly

 Always keep moving parts clean  Always keep parts dry  Always let parts cool after use before touching  Always remove batteries after use  Always have a first aid kit with me  Always have an appropriate fire extinguisher with me  Never operate aircraft with damaged wiring  Never touch moving parts **The following is a summary to be published in the Federal Register –**  I, Mark D. Zinn, am seeking an exemption of the FAA’s §333 rules that do not allow the use of an Unmanned Aircraft to be used for Commercial purposes in regards to National Airspace Safety. Ia m simply petitioning for an exemption to provide a commercial service to private land own ers and companies who wish to obtain and capture Aerial photos and videos of said property for purposes including real estate listings, insurance property claims, and for use as a marketing tool for businesses. The specific UAS for which I am seeking exemption is one with many safety programs, including a live
view flight controller, three Return
-to- Home (RTH) modes, and both GPS and Vision Positioning Systems. When flying for this commercial purpose, I would be flying at a maximum altitude of 200 feet and flying mostly vertically for purposes of taking photos, thereby decreasing the risk 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 sporting events or high
-traffic areas, including airports, and I would pay attention to NOTAMS. I appreciate the FAA’s consideration of this petition for exemption. **Additional information:** I am fully aware of the pre-flight safety checks and procedures implicated in the operation manual for the DJI P hantom 3 Professional and intend to implement all pre-flight safety checks, and utilize the safety technology provided with this unit. Ii ntend to on ly fly in unpopulated, residential or rural areas and stay clear of all utility lines, etc. Ii ntend to be fully aware of my surroundings at all times and to only fly the unmanned aircraft within a visual line of sight and only in Visual Flight (VFR) Cond itions. I understand and will comply with all the health and safety regulations for PIC’s and will be the only operator under this exemption. Operations of the DJI Phantom 3 Professional include the following information: **Diagonal Size** 590mm **Flying Weight** 2.82 lbs (1280g) **Max Ascent Speed** 5 m/s **Max Descent Speed** 3 m/s **Hover Accuracy** Vertical: +/

- 0.1m (when Vision Positioning is active) or +/

-0.5m

Horizontal: +/

-1.5m **Max Speed** 16 m/s **Max Service Ceiling Above Sea Lev el**  6000m (Software altitude limit: 120m above takeoff point)**GPS Mode** GPS/GLONASS

**Battery** DJI LiPo 4S Intelligent Flight Battery has a capacity of 4480 mAh and a voltage of 15.2 **Charger** 17.4V/100W **Remote Controller**  2.400 GHz-2.483 GHz; up to 5 km/3.1 miles when FCC compliant and 3.5 km/2.1 miles when CE compliant; 1.2A@7.4V; EIRP FCC 20dBm/CE 16 dBm **App/Live View**  DJI Go; EIRP 100mW; Power Spectral Density 6.9mW/MHz; Live View Working Freqency 2.4GHz ISM; Live View Quality 720P @ 30fps; Latency 220ms I have no intention of using this exemption outside the United States.
