The use of drones has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many businesses and industries incorporating them into their operations. However, the use of drones for commercial purposes is regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and it is important for businesses to understand the regulations and permits required for commercial drone operations.
Firstly, it is important to note that any drone weighing over 0.55 pounds must be registered with the FAA. This includes drones used for commercial purposes. The registration process is relatively simple and can be completed online. Once registered, the drone must be marked with the registration number.
