hi im in the uk and i like listening to you it gives different views and topics of intrest to us drone flyers i also did a lot of fixed wing flying happy new year to you and all
:-)
Another great video Henrik, it seems half the drone community are confused about the new EASA rules 😂
Yes I fully understand that. a lot of inconsistency and stuff to grasp
To add to that the exam I did came with theory that didn’t even cover the basics which they then proceeded to ask about… lovely
❤feliz Año
I also noticed you mentioned the drone scanner app too. I use that app and other apps in the US to test my remote ID I used that to test to see if the mini 4 Pro in the US automatically only broadcasted RID when the plus battery is installed but stops broadcasting when removed and regular batteries put back which is cool. I mean even the Mini 3 Pro broadcasts remote ID all the time where I'm at in the US.
That is also how I understand it works
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA they really should bring that update for auto on/off RID to the Mini 3 Pro because when I tested that drone out it's always broadcasting regardless of the battery plus or standard. And it's also a classified as a mini drone or a C0 drone there. Not that I don't mind we ID at all. I just think the auto RID cool compared to always transmitting that's why I said DJ I should trickle that little update to the mini 3 Pro/Mini 3. By the way other than using Drone Scanner, Air Sentinel app works good here in the US. One thing I noticed about the mini 4 Pro that's a little different is when it is broadcasting remote ID you have to be very close to the damn drone or no apps will pick it up. So a weaker signal which is good news for a lot of people that don't want to be tracked by drone Karens guess right. I can't say the same thing for the M3P or Mavic series the broadcasting signal on those seems stronger. Thank you again for the video Henrik.
I'm not from Germany, but I have travelled there and the app to check the airspace is called Droniq.
However, it's pretty hard to fly anywhere legally because there are many restrictions when it comes to fly over buildings, people and railroads.
Hey Henrik hope your new year going good and family doing well. Registering as operator there is kinda similar to how you register the drone istelf here in US. You have to have the number on the drone same way as operator number there. A lot of differences too though. Like the remote ID it's automatically on in the US looks like there you got to enable it.
Hi Michael, thanks for asking him that question, I'm trying to find out how I would enter the EU Operator Registration number myself on the DJI FLY App here in the USA, I can't find the Remote ID tab at all....I have registered the Drone in the EU and taken the Certification Test too but how do I enter the EU Operator Number into the APP?...I'm totally confused to be honest...
@@07087joenj If you're in the US right now you don't enter a number into the app at least not in Michigan .
To find your remote ID number it's in the upper right hand corner the three settings dots click and go to the about section scroll down and listed under Flight Controller ID. Once you know your remote ID broadcast number aka flight controller number, You go to the FAA drone zone and register your drone for five bucks and I Maybe have to take the trust test if you haven't already also if and only if using the plus batteries do you need to register it and all that. Unless obviously you're using like the Air 3 or Mavic 3 Pro and Mini 4 Pro above 249g+ you would have to register and have at least a trust certificate if not 107 if it's just recreational then you could get a trust certificate. I'm sorry I'm trying to be his like detailed and helpful for you and accurate. I don't mind answering questions and I won't ever answer anything I don't know or anything.
In the netherlands, we have the godrone app
Thanks for a great video!! Question: I tried to film in my swedish registration/drone ID in my settings under remote ID, but cant save it, it says its the wrong format, the format ends with a dash and 4 digits, we dont have that in the swedish registration/ drone ID so i cant activate it… any advice Henrik? cheers from öland, sweden
Hi Henrik!
Thks explanation, as always very good
One topic You could get in yo is how to download offline apps to the internal memory of the RC app. I have downloaded about 25 maps and they are stored in memory of the RC. Very convenient. I have Mini 3 Pro. Also please explain a little about filters, what is MUAV filter contra ND filters
Like dji you only check rules 945 but really 947 is more recent and contains MTom/tom issue that is at the center of discussions here in Italy for legacy drones below 250g….finally seems dji is updating manuals of legacy drones under 250g resolving this big issue of mtom not declared except for dji Mimi 2 se and mini 4.
I’ll cover that separately
Visiting again Europe this year. First time ill bring my drone with me. Do i have to register my Mini 4 Pro?
Yes, not the drone but you as the operator
Tack för en mycket bra kanal på UA-cam. Jag har en DJI mini 2 och har A1/A3 certifikat och är registrerad som operatör på Transportstyrelsen. Vad behöver jag göra mera för att flyga i Toscana ? Tacksam för svar.
Svar: ingenting. U're good to Go 😂
Hi Henrik
I have a couple of questions I hope you can answer for me.
I’m actually living in DK and also registered as a drone operator here, but the certificate I have from Trafikstyrelsen doesn’t show a security code, only the registration number. Should I contact Trafikstyrelsen to get a security code?
You mentioned that you were in Spain last year, other than being registered as a drone operator in an EU country, is anything else necessary to fly a Mini 4 there?
Thanks in advance.
Maybe try do it again, its free .. and it’s enough to register in Denmark, just make sure you have insurance coverage
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Henrik, I am a drone operator in USA and travel to EU often. I plan to start bringing my DJI Mini 3 on my international travels. I understand that since it is
Hi Henrik! A question. If I buy a drone in usa and brink it in Europe will it run fcc mode or since I will be in Europe will become CE?
Thanks in advance
It all very confusing. Only thing is if questioned by police, they probably have less of an idea what the rules are.
Hi Henrick,
Amazing videos, really appreciate your work! I have a couple of questions I’d like to ask:
I just bought a dji Mini 3 pro this month in Taiwan, and the drone package says that it’s manufactured in 2023. It does not have a C0 label, but I assume it fits in that category as a legacy drone? I plan on going to Europe in April, and was wondering:
1. Besides registering myself as a pilot, would I need any other registrations?
2. What will be the restrictions for my drone? Will I be limited to 120m or 500m?
Would really appreciate your expertise and guidance on this.
Thank you so much!
1. You only need to register as a drone operator and make sure your insurance covers damages
2. 500m
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA thank you so much for the quick response! Will be looking forward to flying my drone in Europe!🙏🙏
Hi, I love your very informative videos, I do have an specific question, I'll be traveling from the United States to Greece in the summer of 2024, I have register my Drone and passed the A1/A3 certification Exam, but for the LIFE of me i can't figure out how to input the EU Operator Registration number into the DJI FLY App ? I don't get the option you showed to enter the number, is this something I have to do once i get to Europe? Will I have the option then? Is there an European DJI FLY App that is different from the USA version? I Have the DJI Mavic 3 Classic and everything has been updated to the latest versions....but I need help finding the menu option to input the EU Operator Registration number, my DJI FLY App despite being up to date is not showing me that option.....thank you for your valuable help!
Hello from Minnesota Henrik, I gotta ask after viewing your sub 250 mini clips,you're weight data,specifically your attention to detail/ drone weight with battery installed have you ever been checked by dro e police or faa for registration, weight check etc?
great video. Can I, as a US citizen, apply for the EU operator ID? If so, is there an English language site? Thanks.
Yes you can. For your own best "experience" you should apply to the "first" country you plan to visit. Once you apply and get an operator ID, this ID is valid for all EU country members of EASA. Most Civil Aviation Authorities in EU use a blilingual system, with one option being the "local" / country's language, and the second one being English. So, for most CAA you won't have an issue to apply in English.
If it happens that the website of the country you're gonna visit doesn't have a bilingual system in place, then try a different one.
PS: Despite Brexit, English remains one of the official languages for all legal EU documents.
thank you@@djgeorgetsagkadopoulos
So if I bring my Mini 4 Pro from Europe and use the standard (not intelligent) batteries, then there’s no action needed on my part? Or do I still need to register on the UAS.gate website and purchase insurance?
I bought my Mini 4 Pro in Australia and it came with C0 label so just wonder, as I will be visiting few EU countries, will I be able to fly in C0 category in EU?
Thanks
Hi Henrik,
Living in Denmark now but not speaking Danish, what do I need to do with a Air 2s without the ce mark? I shoot real estate for Home & Estate. Oh, I have a Danish Licence. :)
There might be solution for this by the end of the month
**Drone in Denmark:** Mavic3 classic (C1 A1/A3). Can you explain the rules regarding flying over, for example, a residential area at an altitude range of 100-120 meters, assuming there are no people in the gardens? Is it allowed, and must there be an endpoint in connection with the overflight, such as the drone reaching an open, unfenced field? I hope you understand my question.
I'm bringing my Mini 3 Pro to the UK and Europe in a few months from Australia, Do I need to just register as a drone pilot with EASA for Europe? or register the drone also? Can I bring my plus batteries or should I buy some standard ones? ( I'll be flying in areas where there will be no people)
you dont need register the drone but you as the operator
You only need to register your self as operator and mark the drone and fly in the designated airspace
Regarding batteries: For ease of mind, use whatever batteries will keep drone less than 250g. That's because your drone does not have a C marking and therefore it's considered a "legacy" drone.
Also in EU the separation is not done with whether there are people or not where you fly. It's done with "urban" enviroment in mind. So, if you fly in a big park empty of people inside a city (urban environment) you're still flying at A1 category. If you're flying by the coast of a small village, you're still flying at A1 category, until you fly at least 150 meters away from the coast into the sea, whereby you now fly at the A3 category.
PS: Personal rant:
I wanted to buy a DJI Mini 4 PRO with the plus batteries in Europe, but it's not sold here. The reason is the C0 marking. With the bigger batteries it would become a C1 drone. I am certified to fly C1 drones, so that would not be an issue for me. But DJI doesn't give me that option. So I ended up getting an Air 3 instead.
PPS: In order to fly a C1 drone in EU you need to pass some theoretical exams.
I have some serious problems with finding out how i can enable remote id on the dji avata so i dont break the law, the option / setting isnt there in the googles please help
would be nice to see drone flying rules that you need if you're from the U.S or U.K.
You mean coming from abroad to EU?
yes exactly :) @@TECHDRONEMEDIA
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA yes thank you, I'm coming from the USA this summer to fly my DJI Mavic 3 Classic in Greece, I have registered as an EU Drone Operator and passed the Certification exam, but I can't find a way to enable Remote ID and enter my EU Operator registration number into the DJI FLY App...is it different for people from the USA?...the option to enter the info is just not there for us....how do we do this? thanks!
It's an absurd law made by some who have no idea about themselves. Example: Mavic 3 is in class C1 (A1) with a weight of 895 g and can fly in the city and Mavic Air 2 is in class C3-4 (A3) with a weight of 570 g and cannot fly in the city. Which is more dangerous in the city Mavic 3 or Air 2 ? Explain to me what is the logic of this regulation?
Transitions are not easy
mavic 3 has more safety features
I'm going to be traveling to Spain in May I'm a part 107 pilot here in the US What are your suggestions for being able to fly my air2s in Spain.. I'm kind of confused at what's going on
I’ve just renewed my operators license in the U.K. and it’s a different ID to last year 🤬
So now I have to remake my stickers! 😡
Bummer
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA I’m sure when I renewed last year I got the same id
@@BillyBob-rm3veam I understanding the above right? As a Mini 3 Pro pilot I registered as an operator a couple of years ago as required (living in EU/Germany). I saw no indication that this was an annual process so can you clear this one up please as above comments seem to imply that it is?
@@travellingman9031 it’s an annual cost in the U.K. to maintain the operator id.
It’s not expensive, only about £10/year.
Just found it annoying that I couldn’t have kept my previous id as it means making new stickers for my drones!
@@travellingman9031 What @billybob-rm3ve said, and also your operator ID does not change, and you can use it with any drone you own.
Really better putting the id down the side of the drone as then you're not covering the gps module
A plastic label should not interfere with the module
the best bit is it's in English but doesn't apply to the English ;D
looking at that first question it looks like it started in the UK
I’m a recreational drone pilot in the US. Doesn’t matter to me what silly rules they pass here, I just ignore them and continue to fly safely. My drones don’t have Remote ID on them and never will. I also removed all government registration stickers from my drones.
I don’t think they are silly, a lot of it makes it easier compared to the past
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA For recreational pilots, I couldn’t disagree more. All the US is doing is clearing the skies below 400’ for commercial delivery UAVs. It’s very obvious. Being the freedom-loving American I am, I (safely) violate the new FAA rules every chance I get.
I’m looking into drones. Most distressing for me is the line of sight rule for fpv’s. The rules seem unnecessarily restrictive even in a future with drone delivery. It would be easy enough to reserve air space a day in advance then deliveries would have to schedule around. Breaking the rules is futile. Trying to change may not work but does have a chance of carrying the hobby into the future rather than being stamped out.
@@markdandeneau2904 Breaking the rules is only “futile” if you do so irresponsibly (or just give up the hobby).
@@slapdat.bytemeDon't always offer up the standard American sloganeering in place of a reasoned, substantiated argument. There is always a need for balance in responding to personal rights and obligations. Our rights depend on our own ability to observe our obligations.
If i understand correctly, remote id for dji mini 4 pro works only with intelligent batteries
Yes
wait, intelligent batteries, that means the normal battery, not the PLUS？meaning 249g drone need a remote id?
@@ethanhorizonif it’s under 250g no need remote ID, with the 51mins battery it shall have it
Does labeling the 249 gr drone does not risk you getting over the 250 gr mark ? 😅
Yes if your drone is 251 grams we all die a horrible death.
It’s all about the rules. Those are made for a reason so we have to stick by them.
@@pejeickx9562 Only idiots stick by idiotic rules.
@@pejeickx9562 Did you also label your GoPro camera and shoes? The only reason you have to register for a drone under 250 grams is the camera. So why don't the rules apply to waling with a GoPro on year head?
@@pejeickx9562 And look at you. Cars kill 1.3 million people every year but are allowed to go 5km over the speed limit. But you are concerned about your DJI being 0.00000000001 gram over 250 grams.
I guess you haven't seen my previous comment.
